Our boy has a very limited argumenitive style. He ignores points that he has trouble refuting, and outright denies those he cannot with 'arguments from authority', either with himself or God as the authority.

I think it's more than just that. See my post 4201. He asserts his position, has it soundly refuted, and claims victory over a point not even present in his original statement.

Hey dumb#ss Im not Vade. Actually I alreasdy refuted every claim you ever posted. In fact I did it about eight times already. In fact anyone who cares to go back can read it you however won't even answer one simple question.


How old do you think the Earth is?

Don't start spouting out at the mouth if you won't even answer a simple question.


Fear the simplicity.... How old is the Earth?

Nope I not Vade, although I bet he has also, have refuted any and every silly post you have made. After the eighth time I quit refuting because you cut and paste the same argument over and over and when you are proved wrong you claim victory.


I remember two other people who used the same tactic I think their names were Adolf Hitler and Stalin. This idea was the one part of the communist manifesto that Adolf really took to heart.

Either we are going to have a rule of law -- i.e., follow what the Constitution says -- or we are going to have a rule of men. The federal Constitution says nothing about having Bible classes -- or Gaia worship -- in the public schools. The public schools are supposed to be under local governance; therefore state constitutions would apply to these questions. -BB-

Betty, at some point you are going to have to face up to the fact that our 'federal' constitution has a supremacy clause that says that states are bound to follow the basic principles/laws of the United States Constitution.
One of these basic principles, as you admit, -- is keeping government out of religion, and vice/versa.
Thus, fed/state/local public funded schools cannot favor any of 'the establishments of religion'.

Such a simple concept, - why is it so difficult for some to understand?

It's tough to argue with God.

The problem is all those people who think they speak for God.

When did this happen? Today or 300 years ago?

And if this is true it is bad why?

And this is bad why? And how can you tell the difference?

Why should chemicals react with each other?

Oh but it seems to work quite well in this reality. And without some compelling evidence why should we believe that this is not the ultimate reality?

And if his mental processes are not only determined by the motions of atoms and electrons what reason has he to believe that his beliefs are true in this case?

OK…
I don’t think my ‘opinion’ will change your ‘mind’ so please answer these questions yourself and for your own sake (if you are truly interested).

"I think it's more than just that. See my post 4201. He asserts his position, has it soundly refuted, and claims victory over a point not even present in his original statement."

#4201:
No one attempted to discredit Christianity. These were posted in support of the idea that the Golden Rule is not strictly Christian. Are you having problems remembering your positions from post to post?
4201 -Condorman-


I'll cede some points. In this case, the point made is a quibble, so I couldn't care less.
4202 -exmarine-

Good grief! Our 'God fearing' exmarine just stated that the point on the origin of human rights is a "QUIBBLE".

"Do you understand yet?"

It's quite possible because you have an infant (unless you're a middle-aged or old man who married a younger woman) that I understood your premise before you were born. I DISAGREE with your premises; our premises are DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED in this regard.

Your theory has been HIJACKED; you are in MASSIVE SELF-DENIAL about your beliefs and the agenda of evo.

Your arrogance is ASTONISHINGLY boring.
