Athiesm is a Faith?

[Fidel_Castronaut]

Your title says 'Jesus is Lord'. This is a statement of fact designed to bring question to it (why would we accept that Jesus is Lord. Who is Jesus, and what is it Lord of?)

We both know that by the criterion demanded for a fact to be established as a fact objectively the statement "Jesus is Lord" cannot be accepted as a universal fact. But it can be stated as a summary of my beliefs. I can and do reserve the right to hold facts by objective or subjective evidence but understand that this does not make it an objective fact and I understand the difference. And yes that statement will always raise a response and I hope will continue to raise questions. In another forum I may have been less blatent but I believed from what I seen of posts here before I joined that the posters here expect people to be thick skinned or clear off so I decided to go with that. I nailed my colours to the post from the start.

Please Mark, don't delete the quote tag lines when you reply. I didn't know you had replied to me initially due to the fact my name didn't appear in the line.

Anyway, I have no issues at all with you stating your beliefs. That's fine, and I would defend your right to hold your beliefs if they're harmless and bring you happiness.

But I don't want us to pretend somehow that you're not making a claim to us when it's pretty obvious you are, that's all
