If you're going to do what you're doing, you're essentially attempting to define a True christian as "someone who exists in a universe where the christian god is real," and that's little more than a tautological trick to try and get atheists to admit they were never real christians. It's ridiculous.

Forgive them, Esqy, for they see not where they are going with their heads so far up their ass.

Depends on my mood.

That would depend on exactly what happens
In a boning game.

That's true. And I'm too much of an innocent bunny to know about such things.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Are you impugning my honour?

If you're not careful, I shall have to put me across your knee...

"Impugning"?

No, just totally calling you out.

I see this distinction as one of intellectual honesty. I accept what I can and cannot know, and I'm comfortable with that.
