1) That's *my* point - it wasn't teaching a moral, it was *telling about the creation of the world*, just like it says.

2) Why am I not surprised. And to think that people were mad at me for calling you "atheist".

3) This was previously about conservatism vs. morality. I rest my case, since you just agreed with it.

4) Since I don't know you personally, I can't comment on this more.

5) Yet, that's what evolutionists claim.

6) Call me arrogant. But when Christ comes again, we'll see who is laughing. The wages of sin aren't light, and blasphemy is one of the greatest. I can just picture you standing before God, trying to claim that you were "just kidding".

It is telling a story, with a moral, if you can't see it, then you are much more closeminded then even I thought.

I am NOT an atheist, just because I do not believe the way you do does not make me an atheist, again, your arrogance is astounding.

Being a conservative, is a political belief, not a religious belief, although, moraltiy is in there, in regards to trustworthiness, committment to law etc, etc. President Bush gets his moral base from religion, if that is what it takes for him, great for him, and great for me too. I don't mind if he's a christian, I wouldn't mind if he wasn't either. He's an honest man, as am I. I can trust him, and I am trustworthy as well. We have the same morals, but from different sources and different reasons. It comes to the same thing. Whether you care to admit it or not.

If you NEED to be a Christian in order to be moral, well that's fine, I just happen to not need the threat of eternal damnation in order to be moral. You obviously do, and that's just fine.

No, it is NOT what evolutionsist claim, you need to study a bit more, I'm tired of feeding information to trolls that really don't want the information anyway.

That's great that you believe that way, but to say that if I am not a christian that I cannot be a conservative, or anything else for that matter is demonizing those that do not have your belief structure. And I am not going to claim that I was just kidding, if you're right and I'm wrong, then I will suffer the consequences. If I'm right and You're wrong, big fricking deal.

To me, if you are a conservative, and believe politically what I believe, then hey, I welcome you to the team, your religious beliefs are not important to me. Only when you try to ram your religious beliefs down my throat, and act arrogant, like you are, do I get defensive.


Oh, and when you claim that somehow because evolution is scientific and therefore atheistic, because it does not agree with your worldview and therefore must be changed or destroyed in order to adapt to your worldview. I get a little uptight, because it shows me that there are religious doctrines out there that will do their best to control information and science in order for them to keep power over their fundamentalist believers.

POWER, it's all about POWER, oh and money. But that's for a whole other thread.
