True, I did misconstrue your statements. "Surprised how many people" does not constitute a generalization. I apologize for accusing you of generalizing. Although it is no excuse, I was getting ticked at some of the unfounded accusations you made beforehand (sock). (I think it's the Hindus who have a rule against bearing false witness, but I don't see why a Christian can't follow that rule for the sake of good manners

Quote:As far as misrepresenting God is concerned, my posts have been quite clear about that since recently joining the forum.
Hopefully likening him to an empty space isn't misrepresenting him because as far as things that exist, he most resembles that. Others compare him to leprechauns or unicorns, because they see him as that. If you are that upset about it, I might suggest another forum because your God will be straight up insulted here. His name will be taken in vain on occasion. We're polite to theists all fucking day long. This is a place where we can relax and speak our minds. You can't deny anyone here that privelage.

I'll never personally attack you, StarHunter, but I'm sarcastic as fuck. Hopefully you can deal.
