Why do religious people log onto this site?

RE: Why do religious people log onto this site?
At least you admit it. Too bad you don't realize that this is exactly what you just did.

Riiight, your reasoning is terrible, don't try again, please.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

How is it that my conclusion came before my faith if my faith lead to my conclusion, mysterious man, mysterious. Confused Fall

I had no conclusion before my faith, faith is trust, I trusted that God was real and that He was telling me the truth through His word. This was the beginning of a journey that has lead to many conclusions and continues to lead to more conclusions.

What conclusions? Will you please share?

I came to the conclusion once that the Three Stooges were swimming in a creak and we were discussing the meaning of life.

Actually, I took acid and cough syrup, and Moe, Larry and Curly were rocks. My conclusion was wrong. Your's?
Life is better when you are a bit off.

You wouldn't know reasoning if it bit you on both your butt cheeks. Here's some reasoning for you:

You asserted god is real before your faith. After your faith, you asserted god is real. That's like saying, "Since God is real, my faith will show me that he does indeed exist." This is a logical fallacy that's circular in nature, and it also begs the question, the question which should be the real topic of discussion.

I bet you don't know what that question is. Cool Shades

If you had bothered to read all my previous post to this thread you would not have had to ask. My conclusion= Knowledge that God is real and trust worthy, mine's right.

Now you're trying to defend a stupid statement you made, that's pitiful. I did not assert God was real before my faith ie. trust in Him, I assumed He was real but, did not assert He was real. Big difference in the two.

I know the question, is BWS dizzy from his circular reasoning? Yes! Confused Fall

You do more things by faith every day than you realize, that is if you get that big fat butt of your's out from in front of the screen.

I take you're still not sure what question your train of logic is begging. I'll give a hint: we keep asking it because we know it's what really matters concerning your claims.

To the OP: I'm going to say religious people log onto to this site to impress us with their insightful and logical arguments; to satisfy their proselytizing requirement; to get a sense of what someone with no morals or human values is like to converse with; and to remind us what waits for us if we fail to repent.

Okay will do this, your disbelief doesn't change the fact He is real.

Where is your evidence?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.

If He's real, then you would have evidence to provide us. If you cannot do this, then this "fact" isn't looking too good in your favor.
