Why do theists have it in for the gays? What harm do they do that means they need to be singled out more than any other group?
It was in response to "a straight answer". A sort of pun.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Now you're forgetting the key word credible. What makes you think that an atheist has any credibility as a religious evangelist? You're not really that dumb are you? Just bored I suppose? What could -be- more credible than a well documented and well photographed religion that sprang up in modern times? I mean, if you ask a cargo cultist to provide you with evidence that their religion is true...they've got the cargo, and the picture of their savior. They even met him. You can check, if you like, to see whether or not he existed. You can even see his birth certificate, if you so chose. Sorry, Tanna fits both your bill and the the moniker of credible in ways that chirstianity simply cannot...and none of that has anything -at all- to do with my being an atheist.
Your criteria are insufficient in order to compel you to belief...there's no sense in misrepresenting yourself, or defending a misrepresentation of yourself.

I know, but it led to my musing on the subject. My mind wanders easily.

Oh right, sorry. You can't get good fibre optic up here, still stuck with fucking dial up. I'll get one of my lackeys working on it.
I wonder if any other theist will agree with alpha? Seems remarkably quiet round these here parts. If that means someone is thinking, then silence is golden, whatever the outcome

Your thread could of been meaningful if you were to say "I am a leader appointed by God, what do I have to to prove it". Then we can have a discussion, because there is no doubt it's impossible for a human to be God.

I just didn't want anyone running off with the idea that we don't have a sense of humour.

The people of Tanna disagree..and again, they have the cargo and the pictures to prove it. Game, set, match.

What? Are you insinuating that God can't message via internet? What other reason do you have to assume that Rob is human?
