haha Thank you fr0do. If anyone's interested, I hope to post a similar topic called "The Political Problems with Religion." I hope no one assumes I've come here to argue.

What makes such sources acceptable for descerning Jesus/God is true?

Nothing. Everything has to be tested. In the end you have to go with your own rationalisations and continuously review them. hope that's what you were getting at?

How do you test something through rationalisation?

In case of religion, the common solvent is ample application of delusion mixed with illogic.

If you haven't, I'll be disappointed. What's the point of being on a discussion forum about atheism (something you don't believe in) if you don't provide any arguments?

[Watson]

I came here to share my beliefs and grow in my understanding of yours. I rebuttle yours to test their limits and see your train of thought laid bare, and also to see how my own beliefs stack up. Ultimately I came here to talk, not debate, argue, convert, or otherwise.

So you come in tranquility not turmoiltousness.

[Watson]

Pretty much. xD

I didn't originally attempt to come here for any reason other than to understand what the term atheism and agnostic means from the source. I didn't even want to offer my feelings or thoughts on God at all, but that wasn't acceptable. I only wanted a differing perspective, since I could no longer ask it publicly on the only other forum I'm a part of. I continue to stay here because I love seeking truth and I find some people on here very knowledgable and reasonable. I know that absolute truth isn't attainable, but the search for truth does lead one to lots of little relative truths. I definately don't like the disection of sentences, or debate flavor, but you take the good with the bad. As long as the baligerence and hypocrisy don't reach threshold or I don't get banned then I'll stay too.
