You wouldn't know the truth if it bit you in the ass.The truth would never do such a thing. Now, in considering your general approach to addressing the issue at hand, "bite in the ass" becomes relevant to a greater degree than necessary, but that's okay. Jesus loves you, too.

Well, she does have a point. The Western Roman Empire collapsed shortly after Christianity was adopted as the official religion. Christianity does preach passivity in the face of aggression ("turn the other cheek").

1dadof3: WOW am i glad im an uneducated hick What, you didn't find his distillation of decades of convergent scientific research in a variety of disciplines in post 337 to be astounding in its intellectual depth and conceptual mastery?

Now, in considering your general approach to addressing the issue at hand, "bite in the ass" becomes relevant to a greater degree than necessary, but that's okay. Jesus loves you, too. Actually, I see that The TruthÓ has already eaten your brain. But now you provide an excellent example to people of what happens when one abandons all reason.

Lightning struck mud = "life"
Not part of the theory of evolution.
You need more education on the matter before you can discuss it with any credibility.

" The post in question is just a little ways up the thread."
Guess I missed it.
" In what way?"
It's too incomplete

I liked the most recent incarnation, but then again I'm a real geek.

But now you provide an excellent example to people of what happens when one abandons all reason.For that to happen I would have to become what you are. That hasn't happened yet, and I hope it never does. I am ever mindful of the fact you are what I could become, and you are what I once was. It is one of few things in life that keeps me sober.
To: Fester Chugabrew
I admit on the face of it that I understand the biblical texts to be true expositions of how the world and mankind came to be. That is my working assumption; the glasses through which I view whatever other texts and evidence may present themselves to me. No, I think your glasses are colored by what someone TOLD you to believe the bible said.

Not for the most part. I read the texts, and take them on the face of it for what they say. But you are correct in asserting that I listen to what others have to say about the text, and then evaluate whether they are in agreement with each other or not.
To: Fester Chugabrew
For that to happen I would have to become what you are. BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!
Just say it like the child you are. You know, rubber ... glue...
