My days of debating religion are long over, now I only seek what I can learn from it while soothing the flames of hatred and correcting voids of ignorance between both parties as best as I can.

Just because an idea is different from your own does not mean those who support that idea are delusional. Reflect rather on your own delusions than that of others, so that you might become better as a person. RE: In need of a more humbleness. Why condemning the Theistic position makes no sense.

I'm clearly on James Redfeild's ignore list, and apparently MK has lost interest. I leave these proceedings to you, my fellow competent apologists of reason in the face of EXTREME ignorance. Good evening all
