You're right. If I want to keep my good standing as an a-asshole I'll have to try harder than that. If you want to delete your post too so no one has to see the unkind things I said, go ahead. I was reaching out to apophenia but I stepped all over you to do it.

It would help if you read you links before posting them.You are adding fuel to my arguement. For the experience they are recording is one that Moses had (a prophet even to them) and only shared by a select few (emassaries)

Quote:So that way you can arbitrarily toss out or accept any dream or coincidence as evidence of god...
Absolutly not. That said 'God' is not the only one who can influence 'dreams.'

Quote:Oh, so that quote was just propoganda to inspire religious sentiment, eh? Makes sense, doesn't it? In that way he is using religion to justify his actions, even if religion was not his primary motivation for doing it.
Your not even on point here. If you wish to discuss further go back and re read what has been said.

Quote:Okay, we use nazi tactics, so you say. Maybe if three people took it to mean that you said we were nazis, then you should at least reconsider whether or not it was implied. (With the same level of seriousness with which many presidential candidates have been compared to Hitler, of course.)
Seriously? It have taken down this arguement to it's core meaning on three seperate occasions (Not including yours) Very carefully drawing the paralells, while clearly seperating your political beliefs from the tactics used.

So if they see Allah in a dream, you will [rightly] assume that it is not genuine? Then why do you not apply this same view to dreams about your own religion? /rhetorical

Really, the main thing to influence dreams would probably be your own ideas and life. God as a concept can influence dreams in that you might dream about god, but a dream is not evidence that the thing being dreamed about is actually real; which is, I think, the main argument being made against the OP.

Either:
1. Hitler killed the Jews for a number of reasons; the main reason was religion, and he actively displayed this
2. Hitler killed the Jews for a number of reasons; the main reason was not religion, but he knew people would be more accepting if they thought it was, so he used [not exclusively] religious propoganda to win support.

I'll clarify this. I do not mean to say that you think we are politically nazis, but are comparing us to them as an insult.

I seem to have near unlimited patience. I do not expect you or anyone else to have this trait. I just...can't often bring myself to give up at something unless continuing is futile and detrimental to my health.
(note that my patience is great but not unlimited in situations of idle waiting)
