I see him do the same thing over and over again in every single conversation he's having, and yet I'm supposed to believe this time he'll really engage and not obfuscate and muddy the waters and dodge any culpability for the things his Church is responsible for. He is the absolute case study for apologetics being perfectly masturbatory. It doesn't matter that not a single person here is influenced or swayed in the least by his cookie cutter rhetoric. All that matters is that Randy's ego is massaged and he says something that allows him to internally claim victory, then externalize that, for everyone's benefit. We all get to laugh at the delusion.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

A page straight out of Sye Ten's book.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay." For context, this is the previous verse: "Hi Jesus" -robvalue (August 21, 2015 at 1:17 pm)SteelCurtain Wrote:(August 21, 2015 at 9:57 am)SnakeOilWarrior Wrote: Come now, Steel.

Alternatively, it might be that the reason you haven't engaged some of my arguments is because you don't want to lose face in front of your little posse here.

And you're making it so much less 'toxic' with your purposefully inflammatory comments. Yes, definitely. It's not you, your dishonesty, arrogance or attitude, we're just 'toxic'. Your compulsive need to assert your superiority has nothing to do with it, is all other people's fault. It's funny how we have such radically different experiences in the same community. But it couldn't possibly be caused by your behavior, right? Naw that's crazy talk I actually feel bad that you can't interact with us in a more friendly way, but you seem to be set on making it worse for yourself and hey, who am I stop you?

If it helps you to think that, I'm okay with it. No skin off my back. I'm not nearly as concerned with what others think as you clearly are.
