/end sarcasm a kudo, I'd be more than willing to have a conversation. At least in our previous dialogues you've been intellectually honest and reasonable.
Sorry tacky...
Intellectually Honest and Christianity (by whatever flavour you care to name it) in the same sentence is just an oxymoron. It just does not compute.
When it comes to christianity... there is a lack of 'evidence' for it being true. However, it is not proven to be false (even though that is what I and many others here believe). I would hardly call Tacky ignorant, and i think his belief in christianity is genuine, and I would be extremely surprised if he should knowingly omit something relevant and important.
All in all... he isn't an intellectually dishonest person. And he is also a christian. I'm inclined to believe it isn't an oxymoron

Inaccurate
No one is questioning tacky's integrity or the fact that HE thinks he is being "Intellectually Honest" Whatever that means.
I understood "Intellectual Honesty' had a solid handle on reality devoid of emotional influence and the subsequent belief system attached to it.
So "Intellectual Honesty" is all about whatever you want to believe...even pie in the skydaddy give me my cookie??
This does not seem like it is the slightest bit intellectual nor honest...guess I really do live in a completely different galaxy.
