But there's a risk we won't sign up to the "right" religion if we're so confused!

Listening to this stuff will drive me toward solipsism.  But hey, if I am God of my world, then at least I'll be praying to something halfways intelligent.

bennyboy,

What may you think proves I have been asking bullshit questions ? Burden of proof.

I may choose not to answer you or I may choose to, depends on what I may think is to our advantage.

You think yourself something above the reproach of those you consider lower than you?

I would love to test that theory, lower one.

You may ask, "Is a tomato," but do you feel that bananas?

And I don't think we need a Turing test.  I think we need a verbal Rorschach test.  I guess some people think if you put enough words together on a page, readers will read meaning into it.

You may think that the story is that Jesus felt many bananas.

Jesus loved to feely wheely those bananay wannaies.

Do you think I showed how I really think it works ?

Do you think he appeared to say something was true ? If someone said to you it is true God exists, do you think you may say burden of proof ?

I'm a servant.

Maybe the answer you were looking for is we may be free to test each other as often as is necessary.

I may wash your feet with my words.

Maelstrom,

Your words don't hurt me.

I chose to answer this, not thinking it was to your advantage, I may not think it to our advantage to answer a different time.

My words are not meant to hurt, but rather to provide a source of understanding.
