broad is the road into corruption and darkness,
and the broad mass of scholars are bound for it.
narrow is the path into truth, and only viable for
the few chosen ones.

Am I supposed to believe this a clever justification for private belief? I'd rather have it in it's natural context; the path to salvation.

Saying there is no discussion about Jesus historicity is nothing but blatant scientific dishonesty. You can not via any honest scientific process reach that conclusion.

If you believe virtually every modern scholar, you will not believe in prophetic literature or the supernatural or inerrancy.

But every modern scholar does not believe alike. If you believe every modern scholar you will probably end up being confused or agnostic.

I agree with Roger, sometimes it's disturbing that it's the loudest most aggressive poster that is believed because of being that way, it would be nice if the logic of what people says is looked at first.

I do think on here there is a tendancy because of the nature of the forums to say "if he's skeptic or Atheists he can say no wrong".

As a christian on here we are in the default position of wrong from the start but a crank can come on and say any old rubbish and be in the position of right straight away which is a little unfair.

It would be nice to see once in a while another skeptic come on a thread and say I'm a skeptic too but what you are saying is a load of crapola :S.

I don't think you have been participating seriously in this forum. Infidels very frequently take other infidels to task for expounding ideas that are plainly faulty. No-one is sacred in these forums.

You are clearly in the minority position, since this is a infidels' site. If you choose to participate in an infidels' site, you should be aware that you'll be seen differently from infidels, just as infidels are seen as outsiders in a christian site.

People who talk any old rubbish here will usually get their toes nailed to the floor. It doesn't matter what their perspective is.

It would be nice if you paid more attention.

I don't think there is a problem with the moderation here which is mostly IMO done well.

I have however noted over the past year or so a decline in the number of interesting, well thought out, well argued Original Posts (OPs), ie new threads, compared to the number of less interesting, muddled, badly argued OPs.

The solution would seem to be for users to try and post more good OPs. Constraints on my time permitting, I shall attempt to contribute to this solution.

Yes, less of your usual drivel would be a welcome change, Andrew.
