I dont drink. I can drink if I want. If I stated that i never drink, I dont think thats even an option, then it woudl be a lie. I might have a beverage with a meal. I dont drink to the point of intoxication. I love the taste of red wine. It would be a lie if I claimed I never drink. I do not purchase alcohol in the grocery store.

What do you call claiming you have faith and then stating you have nothing to lose?



But in a historical context, when looking back upon Christianity we know that not to be the case.




Well if it ends up there is nothing after death, as the Atheists seem to feel, then it won’t matter to you or I correct?



You are the one who can make up your mind.



I have sat through a lot of trials. Witnesses ALWAYS break down.

You forgot to add your comments.

I’ve never acknowledged that hell exists. I never will acknowledge it exists. People create their own hells on earth and they are very good at it.



You said so yourself in your last post. You have nothing to lose.



I don’t want to go to heaven. I don’t believe in that either.



I find it odd that you keep contradicting yourself from one post to the next. First you have nothing to lose and now you have a lot of faith riding on the bible being true. Pick one and go with it. Either you care or you don’t.




Because it’s funny.

Really? Aren’t you a Christian? Seems like you would have quite a bit invested in this.



Why do you think I will twist? I quote you and it is your own words. I merely pointed out that you were a Christian which means that you should have at least something invested in this. It’s your god after all, not mine. I think most Christians would feel strongly but maybe you just don’t care.



And what are those principles? We know historically they have meant death, oppression, torture and imprisonments for millions. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I don’t hardly even use foul language. I don’t believe for one minute that Christians have corned the market on moral behavior.



I thought you said you had nothing invested in this.



I don’t believe in hell and even if it were true, oh well. I’m not afraid of something like that.



You JUST stated you had FAITH INVESTED.

And how would you know if you refuse to read the thread?



Really? Aren’t you a Christian? Seems like you would have quite a bit invested in this.



I do? But isn’t that what non-believers are constantly being accused of? Having nothing invested in anything except science and reason?



Your entire belief system if you are a Christian.



Well nothing according to you.





Boy that was easy and I didn’t even need to put my thinking cap on.

It’s been proven to my satisfaction. As stated you would know if you read the thread. Or any part of the thread. It is incompatible with the bible because the bible states that humans were created from mud and that is not true. You can prove this statement to be false if you like. We are waiting. Jump in. Go ahead.

If you had read the thread, you would know.

I never slammed you personally. I didn’t care either way about it. It was a couple other people who were annoyed by it.



I am not slamming you. The Theory of Evolution is a complicated topic so I merely suggested (second time now) that you back up and read some of what we have been discussing. Or if you feel you can jump in, go for it.



They aren’t unnamed. Inkracer was one. He was wondering why in the hell the topic had gone from evolution to a quote about Jesus. It was because you grabbed my quote form page one. That is an interruption.

How is me reminding you that you already told me you dont want to read the thread "off topic"? Dont people have a right to assess your ability to contribute?

Well since you already told me that you refuse to read the thread, I dont think I can debate this with you.

I NEVER denied it was my quote. But it was posted at the START of the thread when that topic was being discussed with the OP. Do you know what OP stands for? Original poster. Meaning I was discussing that topic with the person who created the thread.

You quoted me near the end of the thread or about 18 pages later when 4 people were discussing evolution (I and inkracer) included.

Now explain to me how that is not interrupting. Thanks.

ImGary said:



Yep I stand by your quote also which is posted here and PROVES that you interupted.

"It is better to be thought of as a fool, then to open your mouth, and remove all doubt."

Feral I said ImGary is accusing me. Not you.

Well you obviously did. Maybe its because you are new to forums but you started at page one and only read up to my quote and then you decided to quote that and I’m assuming you didn’t understand that your reply would not go under that quote but instead all the way to the end of the thread. I’m not mad, if that was the case. I am mad that you are implying I did anything wrong when clearly I did not.

You are telling me I wish I am Satan. Aren’t you a Christian and wouldn’t that be a bad thing?

Well anyone can see for themselves as I quoted your interruption.

I never denied it was my quote. However you took my quote from page one (or near the very beginning of the thread) and plopped it down again over 18 pages later while about 4 of us were in a heated discussion about EVOLUTION. Back when the quote was originally made, the OP and I were in a discussion. OP meaning the ORIGIONAL POSTER.
