So, why hasn't anyone listed their favorite theist?

Read through the thread; someone has listed a few of their favorite theists.

One way or another: who cares who replies to the thread? This is an open forum, after all.

Good shot. Disproved my latter comment and proved my former in one fell swoop.

Well obviously nobody cares, or people would be responding to me.

At any rate I'm mostly just poking fun, but also pointing out (or at least attempting to) that it isn't logically defensible to interpret a statement any old way you choose in light of glaring evidence to the contrary. Here of all places.

If so, then I think such a poll would make more sense in a board like Christianforums.

Does a "sort of" pantheist qualify to post??

I like Doctor X's humor, Biff's smackdowns, Mageth's all around abilities Heathen Dawn since he killed emotional

, RW when he isn't playing theist's advocate...... hmmm and a host of others like bd, fishbulb... Jobar......

(de-emphasis mine, too confrontational.) Heh. Ok, point taken. But I stand by my statement that bd-from-kg kicks ass.

Fair enough.

Sorry about the confusion.

Visciousmemories was right about what I meant in the OP. I started this thread in response to two other recent threads that asked who people's favorite theists were. Sorry, I should have stated that more clearly, but I'm glad people misunderstood. I probably wouldn't have gotten many responses if only theists had responded. All of the responses have been very interesting to read.

QueenofSwords, Jobar, Heathen Dawn, Chicken Girl and Mageth are among my favorite non-theists. To all of you, I offer a big :notworthy

liv, Mageth, QoS, brighid, Oolon, Koy, Jobar, LadyShea and probably a lot more that I'm forgetting. I am immensely entertained as well as educated by all of these people. I feel very fortunate to be a part of an internet community with so many intelligent people.

Yes, I know I'm a non-theist...but I wanted to play too.

Queen of Swords, no question about it.

Though there are a lot of others I admire greatly, who manage to maintain the quality of debate here at levels far above my ability to maintain. But QoS is just so damn funny . . .
