John...

My website shut you out? Odd. Hm. It has moved and looks a bit different. Just click on the "home page" icon on this post (the one with the little house). That should hook you up.

And Allkholollick (play on "alcoholic"?)...thanks. Always happy to have another supporter.

Well, I should have thought to click on your homepage. Thanks. But yes, I was only able to access your site that one time, before it kept me from getting back in, but that was a year ago. Haven’t had any trouble with this one.

Shew...I started with Sacreligion section at the bottom with the two preachers you debated, and am working my way up. I wonder what Richard or John Waddle think of you having their debates permanently on their site? If I was Jehovah, I would get some better General’s, and throw their sorry asses to the lions. I bet Waddle hasn't even been back on that board.

These debates with preachers needs a special section somewhere on the SW. Maybe with time, having exchanges like these, they will think less of these palavering pulpiteers.

And I hope you’ll continue to put these exchanges with preachers on your web site. They were great and the first ones I went to. Let us all know of any future bouts.

C-ya around, John

Talking

Think about God's system of government in the Kingdom of Heaven, according to monotheistic mythology.

Was God elected into office?
No! He holds his office just because of who he is.

Does he answer to a legislative body of any kind?
No! He rules by decree.

Is there any Supreme Court to strike down his laws as unconstitutional?
No! There's no Constitution up there.

Are there protections against cruel and unusual punishment?
Far from it! Cruel and unusual punishment is God's specialty!

Is there freedom of speech?
No! Satan was cast out for speaking out against God.

We would find this sort of government abhorrent here on Earth. Why should we find God any less a mad dictator than Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao, Pinochet, Somoza or Ceausescu?

Is America really a nation under God?
No way! We're a democracy! (Or we were until Junior Bush came along!)
