[[I never could figure out why if they don’t know what the truth is themselves, that they think they can tell others that they’re wrong. In order to determine if something is wrong, you have to know what is true and have a standard that you know is correct, to which to compare things. That’s pretty basic science itself.]]

It’s because they have no solid foundation like objective truth upon which to make any sound objective determinations on- when everythign is subjective, the ‘facts’ can and very often do, change with hte winds. The TRUTH of the bible isn’t even enough for htem to base anythign on because nothign in the bible to them is true- it’s just a collection of ‘good stories’ that they think are menat to be nothign more than a general guide which folks can use to develop their own set of ‘moralities’ by.

[[Then there’s the tactic of them demanding that only scientists can correctly define scientific terms *as scientists use them*, and they reject the commonly held, widely used dictionary definitions.]]

Again- there are no absolutes with htese folks- anythign can mean anythign they like- whether the evidence refutes what they claim or not- when the evidence refutes their claims, they simpyl turn meanings on it’s head, and demand that everyone else do the same or else they’ll be ‘unscientific’.

[[After demanding the right to define their own terms and tell others that they have no business doing it for them, ]]

And that’s exactly what htese ‘self-professed “Christians’ in the evo camps do- they demand the right to ‘interpret the bible the way they see fit’ saying ‘noone has a monopoly on bible interpretations’, and despite hte fact that the very bible itself refutes their claims, they insist that those who beleive God’s word are ‘anrrow minded bigots’. I’m afraid there’s gonna be one heck of a rude awakening for these folks some day

[[Their position is inconsistent to the core. The games FRevos play. And then they wonder why people aren’t sucked into their little games.]]

Yep- they are so insecure in their unbeleif, that htey feel the need to suck as many true Christians into their pit- misery loves company, and they crave the approval of htose who stand for hte truth, and by golly if they run into uncompromising Christians, then al lhell breaks loose. They’ve neither fully committed to either atheism or true Christianity, but want to be ‘liked’ by both camps at the same time- at least true atheists are ‘secure’ enough in their committment not to be twofaced about hteir decision

And after saying ‘noone has a monopoly on bible interpretations’, they act like they do by proceeding to tell us that we're wrong.
