Would have said the same (my bolded) some time ago. Now I neither expect it nor would welcome it, leastwise not if this is some sniveling, worship seeking god eager to reward or punish us we're talking about, who at all approximates the biblical version. Think this calls for a poll though to see just how prevalent that sentiment is here.
I don't know. Maybe I more than a bit jaded from my time on AF. While you may sincerely hope to be convinced, I see far too many atheists claiming to be open to evidence but I doubt that they are expressing a genuine sentiment. Given the insults and ridicule L4C hurled my way when she first joined, I find it difficult to believe she would accept any evidence at all.
Neo, I don't think it's particularly fair for you to still be holding a grudge against me based on my contributions as a new member almost TWO years ago. Everyone has a learning curve. And as far as the insults go, I'm pretty sure you threw the first punch in my first post. Thanks for telling me how I really feel, btw. I still grieve the loss of my belief in god. I still cry over it. Hell, I made a thread about it here, and you participated. So is it that you really don't think I'm being sincere? Or are you just trying to sling insults from "ignore" land? Didn't you just say a few pages back that we should stop questioning each other's motives and just talk about the subject of the thread? Who's behaving immaturely now?
Not that you're going to read this, but I guess for anyone else still following along.
