I think you've hit the nail on the head. What's more difficult is that asking people who believe in one (or another) specific event as the initiating event for humanity what their logic is for such a decision has, on this thread at least, resulted in name calling and accusations of "moral relativism".

You were given the reasoning at least 3 times by at least 3 different people and yet you refuse to acknowledge that and continue to assert that no one will answer your questions. jas3, arguing with you is like arguing with the little child that responds to all your arguments with "yeah, but you're fat"; pointless.

Do not talk to me again.

I could not disagree with you any more strenuously, MichiganConservative. I have never been given any more reasoning than an opinion of one specific arbitrary event that seems "more natural" than another or that the reasoning is that a particular religion says it is so (depspite other religions saying it is not so).

I have tried to inquire specifically into the rationale behind one specific point in time versus another by asking questions which nobody, including yourself, will answer. Some people tell me to go look at other posts.

The child you reference who responds "yeah but you are fat" is resorting to insults rather than trying to gain understanding. On the other hand, I have never tried to insult anyone. Further, I have tried to courteously understand everyone's position to help form my own.

Do not talk to me again

Well I for one think further discussion would be fruitful, but you are certainly free to not respond. Your Constitutionally guaranteed freedom of speech includes the freedom to not speak if you so choose.

Warm Regards,
