In a few forums you are only ever talking to one creep. But I treat the words as if they are coming from different individuals and not the one person or group of people. It won't be long before you are talking with yourself on this forum (panel).
Look, friend. If you are insinuating that I am a sock, could you do me a favor? Please make a clear accusation.
Something like: "You VulcanLogician, are a sock of X." or "Hammy is the sock of X." Otherwise, could you admit that you have no reason to accuse anyone of this? It demonstrates a lack of scruples to make unfounded accusations. I'm not asking for your cloak. I'm not asking you to walk a mile with me. (Not that you would do either of those for me or anyone else you disagree with.) But I am asking that you either put your accusation into clear words or redact it. Can you do this?
I've been active here for much longer than you have, and I don't get the impression that anyone is a sock. If you're going to suggest that someone is, don't be a coward about it. If I thought you were a sock, I'd tell you directly to your face (as much as one can do so on the internet). Please extend the same courtesy to me.

You can drop out of the debate if you wish, but the debate will go on without you. There are plenty of other honest theists on this site who realize that I'm not trying to trump them-- I'm actually looking for common ground. I would never say to you, "God doesn't exist. End of argument." But if I did, would I have really said anything conclusive? If I said that to you, you'd have no reason to take it seriously. Jus' sayin'...
Quote:Humanism was taught by Satan in the garden or Eden, "ye shalll be as gods, knowing good and evil." It was a supposition that people had the brains to do without God.
The second demo of humanism came with Cain who murdered his brother Abel.
Citation, please. Does it say this in the Bible? Did someone say it in your church and you believed it? Are you just making it up? Please explain how you got to the conclusion.
Edit: Or you could just not bring the sock thing up again. That'll work. I just want a civil conversation. Please?
