My chat with Richard Dawkins

Yes he can. It's your country, not your medical records. Many online resources routinely reveal the country-of-origin. Besides which, there's (very easy) ways of disguising ISP trails.

Regardless of all of that, your writing style is not that of a 13yr old. I've been dubious about you from the outset, but made allowances... now, though, your "ho ho ho" response to being tumbled... nah. You're just fake.

25+?

I actually can't answer too honestly because I think I saw your youtube videos (was that you with the videos?). Obviously it's easier to judge from a video than just text. Either way, I would of said 25+ just from text.

Maybe you should write a new intro post grene Wink

If you don't "need dawkins" Then I am not talking to or about you. My efforts are directed to the one who started this thread, and those who feel the need to quote others to validate their own points..

You do understand that AF is a forum, right?

Let me get this bit straight though; you can quote the Bible, yet others earn a measure of disdain in your eye by quoting "others to validate thier own points...". How exactly does this work without invoking the word 'hypocrisy'?

Who quotes 'what' for the validation of your beliefs? When was the last time you quoted the gospels of Thomas, Judas, or Mary Magdelene? Are you now going to tell me that a fourth century Roman Emperor (Constantine), trying his best to consolidate power, didn't help dictate the canon to his advantage?

How does it feel? This is a serious question. How does it feel to abdicate your soul to a book and it's consequent traditions knowing that both were the product of musings of men two thousand years ago. Have you considered this? What of the other fact that there are always 'other' men demanding feliance and tything. No cause for concern?

And I sound no doubt like a 40 year old professor. I have portrayed myself as that in the past and it was easy to fool people into believing me. But an old woman fell for me and insisted on meeting me. I had said I was teaching in Jesus College, Oxford and she wanted to go there to meet me after my class! That was the last time I lied about my age.

Someone's age doesn't matter. It's the fact that Greneknight has repeatedly claimed an age that isn't his. And I really do mean "repeatedly". The number of times he's made it clear that he's a 13yr old choir boy... he's like an old granny who gives her age immediately after her name.

Old grannies never give their ages.

Wow, good argument. I had never thought of it that way.

I think I can predict Drich's response: divine inspiration. I don't blame him for that answer though.

Did your wife tell you to say that?

Oh and, pssst... schoolboys don't spend over an hour during their lunch hour chatting to strangers on a forum. Or are schools on vacation in the country you're meant to be in? September 19th? Interesting "summer" break.
