I knew that was coming, but that prognosis is as they say, "intellectually dishonest" for a variety of reasons.
The problem is, that you are by way of open-ended innuendo, appearing to be attributing some dark, or ill-motive (which automatically leads to yet something else yet further) to my refusal to go along with the line of questioning as you presented it, which is the same line of questioning you have been presenting in serial fashion to other persons here.
I inquired of you as to your own motive for doing so, when uninvited you directed that same to me.
I asked you ---- where are you going with this?
Yet you did not address that pre-condition, the price I had set before you, as what would be required from you in form of good-faith payment before I answered the questions as presented, and presented in context of this thread.
At this point I owe you nothing. Nor can anything much be made of my present resistance to your line of questioning, for I do have just cause & reasons for being suspicious of your own motives.
Your here last comment towards me, is as like the man with the 'Free Candy' van telling a child who avoids him, that he (the child) is a bad kid, doing so while hollering out to the neighborhood, "See!?!" , "I knew you were one of the bad kids around here!" trying to get the neighborhood to look at "the bad kid".
I have already, far too many times to count, "publicly affirmed" that which you sought after, even using words to that same (limited) effect in the comment to which you addressed the query.
My only failure here, was refusal to dance to your own tune, upon command.
Now it's your turn.
Where were you intending to go with your line of questioning, next?
That you've been unwilling to divulge that, tells us all we would need to know? Or does it not, since everyone must still guess at it, virtually forcing everyone else who is paying any attention and would have any interest in the where that line of questioning is going, to engage in form of mind-reading.
I invite you to go work out whatever inner conflicts you may have, and need to prove whatever it is you think you may be proving, upon somebody else, and somewhere else than on the pages of religion forum of FreeRepublic.
We have far too much of that sort of useless nonsense here on this forum already.
No one, at this time, can force anyone to confess that Jesus is Immanuel and that Mary is the mother of Immanuel. It is totally an act of faith and love.
