You can't admit that you lied, LS. You said I didn't address those comments to you, and I did. So you just pretend that little exchange didn't even take place. That is evasion and cowardice.

Now I'm going to explain this one more time. You can read it or not. You can understand it or not:

Here is the deal: lack of belief is lack of belief, not belief. If you cannot understand this, you are dense. Any other silly semantic trick that any of you try only reveals that you are trying to create a worldview that defines away atheists because apparently our very existence is threatening to you somehow.

If you think you are presenting an image of Christianity that will impress anyone, I have bad news for you. You are hypocrites. It is hypocritical of you to address me and then try to shut me up when I answer. It is hypocritical to ask someone (like Muridae) questions and then seek to have him zotted when he answers. It is hypocritical to ask questions and then ignore the response and ask them again and again. It is hypocritical to claim I never addressed something to you when clearly I did.

And then finally, after pinging me and pinging me till my head feels like a sonar, (after I offered to leave at post #294) you ping JR like a child tattling on a playground? Well, do what you will, the fact remains. I'm an atheist and you cannot change that. You'd be better off accepting that (and I have said this before too) we have no starting point and debate is pointless. No amount of insults on your part will change that.

And now I am finished with you. Lakeshark, your actions have proven that you are not capable of honest debate. I'll not waste any more time on a man who isn't man enough to admit when he is wrong. I am perfectly willing to leave you the last word. If you really want what you say you want (for me to stop posting on this thread), you will not continue to address me. I hope I put that simply enough even for you.

Perhaps you need to change your poster name to A_VeraStrange_Lady.

You can't persuade anyone, you can't win your arguments (heck, most of the time you spend trying to move the goalposts of the argument rather than address anything directly).

So you are reduced to name calling. Yep, I must be a liar because we disagree. Gotta be true, cause A_VeraStrange_Lady said so.

For you to continue claiming you don't believe in your own belief system (that there is no God, and whatever else you believe) is hysterically funny. And somewhat pathetic.......

From #449 “Now check out YHAOS (or whatever her name is) pinging Jim Robinson in hopes of getting ME zotted. If you can’t kill the atheist, kill their account.”

He pinged Jim Robinson because he mentioned JR’s name in the course of a posting to you (just as he has done here). ‘Tis a common forum courtesy that is extended whenever someone is mentioned during the course of a discussion. Had you afforded me the same courtesy in #449, you might have learned a little more about FR etiquette sooner.

Another thing. It would probably be impolitic to ping JR just to be rid of a bothersome antagonist. A stunt of that nature would likely backfire. If you genuinely have a poster who is grossly violating the rules, hit the abuse button, get the Mod’s attention, and . . . well, read the rules. I don’t really have a firm grasp on the procedure, because it would never occur to me to use forum rules against an antagonist.

Another thing. You may not appreciate this info, because it doesn’t play into your “poor little me” persecution schtick, but as a balance to that disadvantage, a better understanding of FR practices would help keep you from exposing the extent of your foolishness and ignorance.

Another thing. You can squirm and wiggle all you wish, but you cannot escape responsibility for your advocacy, no matter how far you fall into denial.

Now . . . we all await how you next propose to shoot yourself in the foot.
