Now that's a testimony I'd like to hear more about.

"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too."

You need some thick skin to stay around here these guys just love to brow beat christians. They are rather harmless though and most seem fairly normal.
What were you expecting GC? It is an atheist forum after all.
And thank you for your rather patronizing comments.
@ blood pardon, I'd rather be immoral than immortal, you get more sex(and more interesting sex)
I personally knew what to expect, seems like someone else needs a little thicker skin, I was trying to be a bit humorous not patronizing, sorry you didn't see it that way.
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.
