I was joking about being outta here Johnny,but not about you always going to the same place in your post.This has nothing to do with my post it's just a pattern I notice in reading post I have nothing to do with.Your tactics are always the same you attack the person when you are unsuccessful upholding your argument.

So I'm still here.Still faithful

You still don't get it. Is is YOU who set up this circular system where all discussions have to eventually come back to your "faith only" argument, not me. Whenever someone asks you for evidence, the only evidence that you ever give is faith, which makes all discussions come right back to your "faith only" argument.

In other words, if neither side intends to give in no matter what, what is the next step? I do not believe that the God of the Bible exists, and there is no way that I will ever change my mind. In addition, even if I believed that a God inspired the Bible, I still would not be able to accept him because I do not approve of his approval of unmerciful eternal punishment without parole.

Do you really believe that you are accomplishing anything that helps readers at this forum?

John perhaps I am every bit as ignorant as I appear to be,but I have not once engaged in an argument.I have simply joined in post given my thoughts on subjects.Anytime I've been asked a question,I have offered one.I even invited people to come read my post and give their input.

I think part of the problem here is I'm am accustomed to being a part of Christian Forums,where I routinely ask questions and offer my opinion.The effort is always to share and learn.

This forum is not the WWE for me.I'm not trying to take anyone down and pen them into submission.I have no axe to grind.I have this novel idea that people of faith and those not can peacefully coexist and benefit from hearing each other.

I have had people here say they enjoyed hearing my story,and my perspective and reason for my faith.I in turn have enjoyed everyones insistence on facts and reasoning,even you to some degree.

I guess by nature I'm not a fighter,not that I'm unable or even unwilling to.It's just that it cuts against my nature.So perhaps I've made a mistake coming here.I suppose time will tell.

After you make your comment can we get back to the topic,please...
