Endeavor? There's no "endeavor" about it...
when you feel you're about to get some backlash...
There's no point in talking rationally with someone who has no facts, nothing substantive to back up their claims. Religion is based entirely on emotion and wishful thinking, not substance. When they try to introduce some religious dogma as a given fact, it relegates their argument to that of zealot.
Kinda' like the Taliban.
And liberals...
But, you already knew that, right?
