Quote:Regarding my apparent contradiction regarding faith, well it is just apparent, because what I'm really doing is yes, I'm making you feel bad for having bad faith, and I'm hoping that you'll have good faith. Bad faith is the belief in what is not true, while the good faith is belief on what is true. After all, the only honest reason to believe is that what we believe in is really true.Actually, I was simply pointing out that an appeal to hypocrisy is a poor way to argue for your faith.

After all, for an argument be not compelling is one thing, and to ignore it is another thing.Again, it's not as if it matters why -I- don't find them compelling, that won't change the fact that you do....and - again- it's not an issue for m anyway, since I couldn't be a christian even if your silly little superstitions were true.
I've got an ethical objection to slaughtering jews as payment for my wrongdoings, understand?
