Gotta say I haven't seen the, "I'm right and you know I'm right" face-saving defense in some time.

I understand your need to justify your mistake, but don't you think the "grammar police" gambit is a bit juvenile? That you expect the reader to take you at your "word" when you write some things, but then interpret your "word" when you write others, is pretty arrogant. "I mean what I say when I say it unless I don''t mean what I say when I say it."
?? How do we cancel a post?

I have already revised my opening post as follows:

"Even if the God of the Bible can predict the future, that on its own does not provide a reasonable basis for anyone to become a Christian, and with the further implication that the many threads on prophecy at this forum are incomplete without reasonable defenses of God's character at some other forums."

If anyone wishes to discuss my revised opening post, please do so.
