The Original Messages of Religion

[Thumpalumpacus]

Oh, the endless equivocation... So much fail.

I think it's very sad that you won't defend the assertions in your original post. They are there. You are making them.

I also think it's sad that you don't realize that argumentation is a valid and important part of communication.

Perhaps you should go argue with a boulder, see if you can move it with your words. Then you shall understand the futility of arguing.

I should not have been so obscure with my first post but the excitement was flowing at the time, it is most likely my fault that you think I am asserting that virtues belong to religion. No I was saying that religion had originally helped broadcast them to an entire group of people, like an ancient form of radio.

You have shown no skill on how to ask questions, if you were unsure of what I was trying to say, you could have asked.

I still do not know why you want to engage in a fruitless, frivolous, time consuming ARGUMENT about what a virtue is. But I hope in the future you will focus on more important things than such tripe.

You gave an opinion, he disagreed, and you've disagreed with his disagreement. To now declaim the value of arguing -- and there is value in contesting logical arguments -- is ignoring your own deeds.

If you don't like arguing, stop arguing.

I personally think you're just a troll, artless at that, prepossessed of some grade-school mysticism and thinking you've discovered something grand.
