You don't know I research and write, you don't know about the fact I do radio internet talk shows, and you don't know I instruct. I suggest asking one about one's self before accusing them out of some paranoia.... but I'm happy to forgive it this time... if you have anything to ask me, ask me or go to admin and ask THEM to check me out Wink ...no more accusation though, not only is it unethical, I would assume its against the rules here eh? Smile


1) Your behavior here, clearly arguing the theist position, would seriously undermine any 'data' you were collecting. I never said you didn't lecture or write or research. Also, if you were actually collecting statistics, your poll would be a little more representative.

2) Stating my opinion about your motives here is not against the rules. I don't believe you're here to 'collect statistics,' I believe you are here because you think you have some unassailable 'proof' of god, and the more you post, the more it seems we'll get to that sooner rather than later.

Also... how is it an atheist can assume that one can violate matter and electrical impulses? In the end wouldn't an atheist be forced to admit that there is no real violation?
I feel like I clearly answered the first question, so I'll move past that. And yes, if the options are: humanity goes extinct or I force a woman to have sex with me, then yes, I believe that would be the moral option, even if it would be repulsive to me.

And please drop the whole "matter and electrical impulses" gambit. It is a gross oversimplification. We are made of matter and our neurons fire with electrical impulses. I doubt even you would dare argue against that. What is your point---that because atheists don't believe in the supernatural, that we don't think there is any meaning to life?

Really? A prescribed ceremony performed according to religious rules? The circumcision is the rite.

Genesis 17:10-13, Leviticus 12:3.

Ever heard of a Jewish Mohel?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
