That's it, I refuse to continue debating here. All I get is a heap of ridicule, disagreement or other weakening of my faith, which is non-negotiable. I'm sorry I ever started debating on these boards.

What I believe is true because I believe it is true. I believe in an omniscient God and decisional free will and an afterlife, therefore they all exist. End of story. End of debate. Case closed.

I'VE HAD IT WITH DEBATES! NO MORE DEBATES! I WANT CERTAINTY, NOT DEBATES!

Man, if I got $ 5 for every time you've said that, I would now have at least $ 200.

Last time I looked, complete certainty was not an available option.

Mind you, I'm fairly certain that my friends are good for me --- because I try to be good for them.

So an answer to your previously posted question might well be,
Change your attitudes and leave the egocentrism behind.

Gurdur,

Thank you, but there's no need; I already have a father. And yes, I hate him too.

Dr Rick,

I'm not a Christian. Christianity, with its chamber of everlasting sadistic torture, is a Satanic religion.

But it is certain everlasting sadistic torture; whether or not it is Satanic, however, is debatable...

No, it's not certain. I'm certain it does not exist.

It's not debatable; eternal sadistic torture is satanic by definition. No debate here.

Then why are you debating with me?

I can see it now:

"I'm not debating you."

"Yes, you are"

"No, I'm not"

"YES"

"NO"....

Now if only someone would give me $ 5 for each time this now-clich�d situation occurs..............

emotional · 07-03-2003, 10:20 AM

Sorry about that.

Emotional,

Didn't mean to add to your stress level. Just trying to explain my objections to the concept being discussed. Debate or not debate as you see fit. Believe as you will. Ain't no skin off my back.

Cheers,

Jamie
