Nope. Respect is earned, not given. You don't get a pass to be all preachy here, on an atheist forum and then demand respect. It doesn't work that way.

So basically, you got tired of running this line of shit to no avail over at TTA, and you decided to come poison my neck of the woods with it? Dodgy

The faith is the following the Knowledge in your life. The faith is the faithfulness to the Knowledge. If you know, what tabaco kills, then do not smoke, please. But if you do not know this yet, you can trust the warnings on the cigarettes packs. But what if you extremely want to smoke and is willing to take the risks? Such an "excuse" to smoke have many people. But in case of hell-warning is the entire different situation: the hell is the exactly infinite suffering. The smoking cigarettes will give you the young painful death, but the pain of hell is the infinite longer and the infinite stronger. So, you can trust the hell-warning of the theism without ever having any regrets.

Pascal's wager again? Surely you must be joking. The value of the wager has been thoroughly debunked by the number of competing, yet completely incompatible 'hell warnings'. Fail.

The true God hates sin, hates the satan, hates the false gods (ie. the idols). "True God" is the designation of the very first life in the history. Life objects exist, and therefore the True God am. No life can be without the very first life, so the true God am the Life. Then He knows the life, He am omniscient. Because He am omniscient, He am also omnipresent. He am able to Judge and His word am the Verity and the Law. Do you love life? Then do love and obey the sovereign King, the holy and true God -- the Holy Trinity. He is not under the law, He am Himself the law and truth to all the people.

This is nothing but a bundle of assertions which can be dismissed as easily as it was posed. In what way does this show how trust leads to faith?

Without the feed from conscious thoughts, the subconscious mind will soon die. The human would become like anti-theist.

Is this metaphor for saying the atheist will soon become faithless? You're assuming Christian faith has nutritive value. There's no evidence of this. It's just another assertion.

You may deserve respect, that doesn't mean that your ideas do. More of this gobbledygook and you'll simply be losing respect.

Calls himself "theBorg," speaks in broken syntax, can barely hold together a logical thread, and is almost incapable of actually addressing what others say to him...

Nope. Odds are about 50/50 that you're just a spambot, right now.

I can't recall who coined it (Esquilax?), but I shamelessly stole it.
