If you grasped that you might have felt educated instead of mocked. Although now that I think on it, it may sounded insulting because your original phrasing was presented in such an insulting and denigrating fashion.
And it's not my standard, it's the Bible's.
There was nothing in the post you mocked that was deliberately insulting or denigrating, as far as I know. Maybe I'm wrong. What I know, however, is that people on this forum are constantly insulting and denigrating Christians for having views that question popular scientific theories, and are relentlessly mocked, so I have no problem whatsoever in being "brutally" honest here.
You took offense because you disagree, and I tell you that your disagreement isn't actually with me, but with God.
Give me a break on the whole assertion thing. Every argument on here begins as an assertion. I've made assertions backed up with logic and/or Scriptures (necessary for religious discussions), you've simply mocked me.
If you think this was a polite response to my comment; it's pretty obvious trying to have a polite conversation with you is a waste of time (emphasis added for clarity):

Some cosmological theories posit that the universe had no ultimate beginning, it's always been around in some form. The math works and it doesn't violate what we know of physics. What we can get our minds around doesn't seem to have much bearing on what actually is.

This is just a bunch of garbage. The simple fact of the matter is that there is no reason for anything at all to exist without God as an explanation. Nothing has no reason to do anything, can't create anything, can't exist as anything other than nothing. To posit that the universe, which has no will or awareness, could ever exist on its own is patently ridiculous. God makes sense because He is supernatural and truly unbound by physics or math or whatever other form of science you wish to call upon. He is the only rational explanation for the existence of the universe, and anyone who claims otherwise is in denial or totally deluded.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
