Well, speaking for myself, I think I'd rather be obsessed by matters of proof and disproof than exhibit an utter indifference to them. Intellectual honesty is a sadly neglected virtue, but it is a virtue nonetheless.

Gemma, Islam and Judaism both stemmed from the same desert tribe and so share the same deity historically speaking. The Muslims think Mohammed was the messiah or prophet, the Christians think Jesus was and the Jews don't think the messiah has come yet...but they all worship the same bronze age war god of their goat herding ancestors.

Like I said, read your history. I have no personal stake in this, I don't care which Sumerian deity ended up "winning" 4000 years ago....you people do care though and so should at least understand the TRUE historical context of your various myths and religions.

Amazing how one Ultimate, Absolute and Unitary God can metamorphose into four, isn't it?

Gemma...what exactly do you hope to accomplish here? You make one sentence bitchy pronouncements and seem unable or unwilling to actually discuss anything.

So what is your goal on these boards?

To argue with atheists -- it's fun, it strengthens my faith, and frankly, an all-Williams final is boring.
