They why answer the questions?

Sorry sport me thinks thou doeth protest too much.
I'm interested in competently formed arguments. More than that, I'm interested in the various ways that human beings (like yourself..ostensibly......) have come up with to conceptualize the world around them and their place in it. IOW, shit that's -vastly- more important and relevant than any fairy you might believe in, on it's own. I've been disappointed repeatedly, in both regards, in your threads. If you're only now realizing what I have told you countless times about myself....I can;t help but think that this is related to your failures in those other areas.
One might imagine that an evangelist would welcome any and all help with arriving at a coherent statement of beliefs, a compelling argument for their gods. I suppose though, that one would have to assume that said evangelist was a rational actor making intelligent decisions....but perhaps those two things can't coexist with god-belief or evangelism. Or maybe they just don't exist in you, in which case I'll still be waiting here, for that person...just like I was before you arrived.
