It wasn't directed at you. I gave you the "answers" because I like you. I requested wagglebee to check the history.
Who is your "boss" that you referenced in your first post? Who are you? What is your bias?
“I have faith—I believe..”
But what is that faith and belief based on? Is it based on what one’s parents or family or friends or culture or community, job, education or even what one’s church believes? What convinced you that your faith/belief in the sources are well founded so that you risk your eternal wellbeing (I am assuming from what I have seen that you believe in the after life) on its truth?
I don’t mean to make this personal; the “you/your” should be read as the impersonal “one”, but you have been gracious enough to respond to the questions.
I have no idea what that means. As to “bias” I thought I stated that I was a Cynic. The only other bias maybe is skepticism, especially with the arguments, if that is what they can be called, on this thread. The questions go to the heart of the topic of this thread.
I can understand your reluctance to answer the questions.
Who is your boss, that you referenced in your first post ever? What does he/she have to do with the RF? What is your interest/bias?
I am not reluctant at all, to a regular participant on this forum.
Your first post was a question. What is the purpose of such a survey? To what use will it be put? Who are you, and why would a Cynic be here? Who is your boss?
The reason for my hope is that God created me and Jesus died to save my soul. The Ultimate Truth, is the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The FULLNESS of that Truth comes through the Holy Spirit, promised and delivered at Pentacost, through the Catholic Church which is One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic. It is the only Church which has existed since the day the Church received the Holy Spirit and we have been assured that the “gates of hell, shall not prevail” against her.
Get out your Bible and search for Pillar of Fire, Pillar of Truth, it is about the shortest explanation of our faith available.
We have no problem defending our faith, most of us have been doing it for years.
I can appreciate the fact that one might not want to disclose his/her employer, depending on the motive for the survey.
If not a setup this thread is not the appropriate forum. (I have blocked this one with my "Parental Control" button.) :)
Thanks, Reggie. It stinks to me.
Oooops! Sorry!
Ah, come on, his motives can’t be any worse than the sado-evangelists. I have an argumentative, athiest brother and he can’t hold a candle to them.
Then let him/her answer the questions. I have another one: what is the bias of his/her boss? Is his/her boss a FReeper? Taking regular part in the RF? Who is it?
I will bow to your wisdom and ignore him too until he answers the questions.
Ooooh, snap!

Is there really one of those??
Right up until I read #3660.
What, no answers?
And just like that **poof** he was gone.
