No, because those terms had not been created then. It is what we call them NOW, but not then.

You can have your opinion and I can have mine, try not to get to excited.
Stop Spencer. Fifteen pages is more than enough.

There are opinions and then there are informed opinions, specifically ones based on information. We're tried various examples and you've rejected them all and offer no counter-argument other than that "agree to disagree" bullshit. You identify yourself as an 'atheist' yet repeatedly you display a lack of understanding of what the label and its meaning actually state to the point where I'm half-expecting you to "magically convert to theism" on us anytime now. You have a mental block that is preventing you from understanding the fundamental differences between atheism, theism, agnosticism.

Go educate yourself first.

I thought he had a smell of a theist about him too.
Spencer are you really an Atheist?



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
