You didn't actually respond at all to what I said.
You have failed to respond to this:

Rejecting the Burden of Proof
There are those who will refuse to accept that the burden of proof rests with those making positive claims. They do want to claim that:
"miracles exist unless someone proves that they do not exist."
"souls exist unless someone proves that they do not exist."
"angels exist unless someone proves that they do not exist."
"deities exist unless someone proves that they do not exist."
Those who behave in this manner are rejecting the use of reason. They want to believe that X is true or that X exists and to believe it without evidence or even against evidence to the contrary. They want to have their beliefs remain intact and not subject to refutation or to reexamination for fear of needing to alter their beliefs. They rest their beliefs in X existing or in X being true not on evidence and reason but on FAITH and even on BLIND FAITH and when against reason and counterevidence on willfully BLIND FAITH. Such behavior is within the realm of Religion and not at all acceptable amongst those who would pursue Philosophical discourse or who would ask that reason and evidence support claims.
And you have failed to respond to this:
Quote:AGAIN. THIS IS WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO DESCRIBE IN DETAIL WHAT THIS "PERSONAL EXPERIENCE" IS. YOU WILL BE TELLING US EXACTLY HOW THIS GOD FIGURE APPEARED TO YOU, WAHT IT LOOKED LIKE, SOUNDED LIKE, ETC, AND DETAIL YOUR CLAIMED ENCOUNTER AND ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS ABOUT IT. OTHERWISE YOU ARE JUST BEING A DISINGENUOUS LYING FUCKTARD SAYING "I HAVE THIS UNICORN IN MY GARAGE, BUT YOU CAN'T EXAMINE IT".
And you have completely ignored many responses from other members including myself, all the while bleating lies and claiming that we have have not answered when we have. Your dishonesty doesn't escape anyone who might read these threads, and your presence here only serves as an example confirming what we say when we tell people that christians are disingenuous, deluded, dishonest, lying liars who are so irrational, unreasonable, and illogical that they even go so far as to vilify and deny rationality, logic and reason. Thank you for serving as our poster child.
