Or for our Mormon readers here, is it that big of a logical stretch for folks who sincerely believe their God managed to punt every single revelation given to Joe Smith and Brigham Young so badly that most had to be revised by him two more times to get them right ??
I wholly agree with you that logic is very often just tossed out the window by the religious types for the sole purpose of fantasy maintenance. And yet I myself can't reason this way. I guess I'm "stuck" having to logically defend my positions while people like Little Rik can just get away assertions based on faith and intuition.
I was probably wrong about Little Rik when I gave my first answer. I thought he was seriously asking some questions to prove a point about science. I now believe he doesn't care one whit about having any kind of discussion concerning science or any other topic.
He wants to preach.
He needs to preach.
If god was real he wouldn't need middle men to explain his wants or do his bidding.
