So if you make fun of him for it, you're a big ole meanie!

Of course Drich is a notorious LIAR, as those who are familiar with the fake AIDS story he presented in past threads to convince members of his god's miraculous healing powers are well-aware of. 
So who knows, really? 

He's capable of churning out tremendously long threads in short periods of time, so it stands to reason that at least some of his poor grammar is due to careless error. 

I'm pretty sure that Drich would happily rip in to others for lousy grammar if the tables were turned, as he has no qualms about ridiculing the mentally-challenged or attacking people for shit that's beyond their control. So I don't think anyone owes him a pass for it.

Im not dyslexic now.. I was as a child which caused me to simply not learn how to read or write in school beyond 4th grade. Since then via comic books I taught myself. they helped me visualize what meant nothing before. I Should have never graduated. I was in special schools and classes all my life. Now despite my slow start I have over come and learned to be very successful. primarily because I learned how to use my mind, and know how to attract and keep good people/employees.. I had to learn My mind does not work like other people do and I can not learn the way you learned things. once I figured out how to learn I taught myself everything. or retranslated what I was being taught in such a way that I could use the information being provided.


as far as nailing other people about grammar If I ask it is to determine if english is the source language or if they are using a translator or program.

I am nothing but mercy and grace for someone who tries and fails. however because i was nothing bullied without mercy for be stupid I have very little grace or mercy for those like you who want to focus on the little gnats of a undotted I or an uncrossed T, while the 2x4 of broken logic, failed history or even blind faith has you speaking from emotion and rarely if ever truth or fact.

How silly are you to cross my t's when what is being discussed is how another language is compiled and does not use the letter "T".

How silly are you to collectively try and shame me for grammar in a chat centered around theology.. If any of you had any merit in anything you claim about my inabilities, then should the topic be my exegetical failure? why grammar? is my exegesis so strong you must find another flaw?

Do you even know this word? exegesis? yet you chastise me because I do not play by your rules of intelligence? 

again if i did you would all be without hope or reason for your disbelief and would not explore God/faith beyond what you already want to believe.

Thought experiment, to prove what I say is true. How many of you join christian websites play with in their rules to be one of maybe 5 atheists and with in their rule set oppose each and every question statement of faith or comment they make using the very bible they use to make those assertions?

Even if you joined a christian web site you could not handle the daily bombardment of 10 to 20 people slamming you with facts and data you may never have heard before. Most of you break the rules so you can come back as a hero.. How much harder is it for you to stay when the rules are designed to cut people like you out? how many of you are willing to redesign your whole approach to have a religious discussion with a master in theology? Look at your comfort zone. you are the many. you have 10 to 20 supporters and only a hand full of detractors, but imagine if said detractor was perfect and could not be challenged or questioned. you all would run out screaming or devolve to a bucky ball and just "nut-huh, cause i said so!"

I am here, I have been broken for your benefit and mine.. could you imagine how impossible I would be if i was right down to my grammar?

True. Little Rik never once said that he would do whatever it takes to discipline his children and refused to rule anything out.

I don't really find that surprising. But I'm hoping that the Drich who has returned has turned over a new leaf. Frankly I started skipping his posts as soon as I saw the words 'cupcake' or 'sport'. That is, I was skipping a LOT of them.

Sport is a term of endearment. It means you played your hand before you got all the facts/rookie move or you are speaking in total ignorance. It is a non hurtful way of having someone check themselves before I wreck them if the continue down a broken chain of logic.. cupcake is a place holder for Mother-fer for you ladies. some of you make me want to shake you till you can think right. but I do not want to be angry because my frustration is inappropriate at that time... so cup cakes.

2) will you just blindly throw insults and use christian stereotypes to try and diminish or tarnish my name

3)or despite having any evidence or the ability to cite where I was silenced (not walked away from because fallacious reasoning on the atheist part or the subject was repeating it self.) you will just assume somewhere at some point I was not able to defend God.

4) will you make an honest attempt to show me and the world you can come up with questions or paradoxes related to the God of the bible or the bible itself and list out 10 items you yourself can come up with.

I think you will do the easiest thing like you always do and just insult from a blind to just through poo and see what sticks.

All total bunk, per your usual. I "blindly" do nothing. YOU have demonstrated your angry hateful persona.
You actually "bring" nothing except the old fundy tripe, which fundy children learn in Sunday School. 3rd Grade Sunday School. 

You may have many posts , .... however the quality of them, due to your total lack of education in the Bible, is abysmal. They're nothing but childish nonsense. 

If you actually were for real, and had anything of real quality to contribute, NOTHING could diminish your rep or sully your name. Least of all me. 
Don't delude yourself. Even though you assume (judgmentally ... which your Jesus told you NOT TO DO, .... you think you're special) that I dislike your posts because you are a theist.
You're totally wrong. I have many theist friends, including clergy and scholars ... it's why and how I know you and your angry judgmental nonsense is such a HUGE scandal, for people of religion.

You are in no position to be answering questions. You are unschooled. Your stupid little hobby of positioning yourself as an "expert" in what you clearly know nothing, is beyond hilarious. Find another pass-time / hobby ... you're really BAD at the one you picked. You drive people AWAY from religion, not welcome them to understanding.

CLEARLY I am a threat to you, I see. Your understanding of the Bible and your little "paradox" game is nothing but unschooled crap. It's not how scholars talk, nor is it what they talk about. It's an ignorant little game. You know no scholars, and are not acquainted with their methods.

No wonder he's so fucked in the head.

AIDS, cancer....The Gayness, mental disability, poverty, and marital ruin due to addiction. “God”...,,has cured Drich....of all of these things.

Which really makes you wonder how the fuck he’s still so goddamned broken.

I never knew about the AIDS thing ... and all the rest. Not going to investigate ... but ...
the lights just went on. OMG. NO ONE (except a couple patients who had bone marrow transplants) has been "cured" of HIV.
If they take their meds, their viral load drops to "undetectable" ... but they're not "cured".
I should have known, (I did suspect it) ... LOL. I should have known. Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
What a sad old tale.

Thanks, Drich. I needed a good belly laugh today.

I would not laugh at Drich.

I only pity someone who could be so loathed by an all powerful god that the said god apparently labored mightily and sweated profusely to make him so stupid and yet full of himself.

Quote:Even if you joined a christian web site you could not handle the daily bombardment of 10 to 20 people slamming you with facts and data you may never have heard before.

There is absolutely nothing they or you could possibly tell me that I have not heard, either by personal inquiry, or my degrees. 
In general, atheists know far more about the Bible than those who say they possess "faith". 
There is no "secret info" religious people are privy to. They have no "stash" of info the "unwashed" do not have.
Virtually every single Christian site would ban me.

Well, obviously you're still dyslexic. It doesn't "go away". You've learned to manage it to a degree is all.
If you'd had the good sense to seek professional intervention as an adult, it might've resulted in the impact of your symptoms being negligible or nil by now. 

It's not too late. You could probably benefit a great deal from proper intervention.

Then you'd have to contend with the reality of your lousy arguments, general ignorance and fact that you're a horrible person with no excuses though, so I kind of see why you don't.

Your claim that people refrain from addressing your exegesis and presuppositions is a crock (as you damn well know), and the notion that your LD is the only keeping you from being on par with with MATs and MDivs is just delusional. The ones I've engaged in discussion with IRL have no trouble discerning the difference between that which is knowable and that which is unknowable, and aren't dumb enough to even suggest that there's an argument for God or faith that can't be challenged or questioned. 

What you are is a Bible-thumper, Drich. Plain and simple.
That's it.

Quote:Again if i did you would all be without hope or reason for your disbelief and would not explore God/faith beyond what you already want to believe.

False. Many if not most atheists used to BE people of faith. You have no clue what you are talking about. Many atheists GRIEVE their loss of faith and community, family ties and allit means to not be a person of faith. They WANT to believe. They are too intellectually honest to buy into the bullshit.

Quote:Thought experiment, to prove what I say is true.

Ridiculous. These forums are on-line communities. It has nothing to do with your childish "questions and paradoxes", Bible thumping, and arguing. You fundamentally misunderstand these forums. Why would anyone do as you say. If they want to believe, it's their problem. You are doing no one, any favor, coming here. Your understanding of Christianity is childish, and grade-schoolish. You're an expert on nothing. Your thought experiment reveals where you are coming from. "Using the Bible" as a tool for argument is bullshit. The Bible is a collection of Near Eastern texts, written for religious reasons, NEVER intended for "debate" topics. When it was written, 95 % of the population was illiterate, and they never ever "read the Bible". For almost all of its history, in ancient Israel, the text played NO PART in Jewish life. Most of Hebrew history, there was no Bible. They didn't even have a copy of any of its parts. Same was true for the NT, and until the Reformation and printing press, they also NEVER read any such thing, (the Bible). They didn't have one, couldn't read, and couldn't afford one. Modern Fundamentalists with no basic education, such as yourself, using the Bible as an "arguing tool" have bastardized what these texts are, and why they were written.
