That rant was very irrelevant, LOL
First off, I find my position very logical. I do not just spout off "God just is" and "God is real because God is real" arguments like you seem to think I do. I wouldn't have made it this far on an atheist forum if all I did was talk out my ass.
Second, what the fuck do you mean "beleive to believe"? Where in the fuck did I say that, Dotard? Show me, right now, where I said that. I didn't, I said you have to believe to understand. I'm highly aware that a lot of atheists were once religious in some form or another. Guess what? It has no baring on anything if you didn't understand your time as a believer. Just like it has no baring if I didn't understand my time as a non-believer.
But I can say quite confidently that I did, in fact, understand it and still do. Hindsight is 20/20
Third, I am not afraid of Hell, I am not afraid of eternal torture. I have experienced Hell and it is not a pleasant state of mind by any means, but I am fortunate enough to have realized where I was headed, and changed directions. Trust me, there's nothing like either feeling.
Fourth, you must have missed the post where I explained that the reason I make claims about God is because I believe in Him. Belief is a prerequisite for understanding, and due to my belief, I am better able to understand and explain to others the nature of God and how He works. I do not 'know' anything about God. If I find something that conflicts with my current understanding of God, I will have to change my understanding.
Take a look at that rant of yours, Dotard, and read it aloud to yourself. Talk about it with someone who agrees with you in real life, and someone who disagrees with you. I'm not here to show you how ridiculous you sound, and i have no patience for idiots. Kindly take your bitch-fit and GTFO.
EDIT:
Further points I would like to make are these: I am no desit, so please don't confuse me for one.
Also, you claim that my points get us nowhere in a discussion, but the truth is they do. I am trying to demonstrate to you that you do not understand 'God' or the concept of 'God' as well as you think you do, and then to move on and explain Him to you as well as I, personally, am able.
