Ha, it was tempting, but I'd really rather learn from the source. Already talked to all the people I know and still have a lot more to go.
I charge by the hour to help you with your homework. Skim a few hundred from the collection plate at your church, maybe we can talk!

I did not come here for academic purposes but to debate! We have experienced a barrage of like requests from christian students lately. None which seem to want to engage with us as human beings. Always as test subjects. We do have christians on our forum, some very loved, that argue human to human. You seem like you might have that potential. Stick around awhile!
