No, I will admit that this is not an open forum for discussion then as it said it was in the introduction. If that happens it just means that atheists do not tolerate dissent.
It says in the rules, the one you agreed on that preaching is not allowed. If you want to argue a case for your beliefs that's fine, but throwing a lot of assertions and scripture is not the way to go about it.
What I have done is nothing different than what my detrators have done. I see what the atheists are saying as preaching also, but the difference is I am a Christian and not allowed to say anything here. Don't worry, I am leaving here and going elsewhere.

Well Stucky, you can't DISPROVE that Rhythm is the creator of all things; omnipotent and omniscient. It takes more faith to be an arhythmist than it does to be a believer. If you don't believe Rhythm is God, and you're wrong, you might regret it. What do you have to lose by believing Rhythm is Lord?

It would be hard to preach from a non-existent gospel. Yet more evidence that "what you see" may not be, strictly speaking, an accurate representation of reality.
(one of the beauties of my gospel over others btw is that it can actually exist and not exist simultaneously, further proof of my divinity, or not)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

There you go, preaching again.
You seem to have an odd definition of preaching. What do you think preaching is?

preach (prch)
v. preached, preach·ing, preach·es
v.tr.
1. To proclaim or put forth in a sermon: preached the gospel.
2. To advocate, especially to urge acceptance of or compliance with: preached tolerance and peaceful coexistence.
3. To deliver (a sermon).
v.intr.
1. To deliver a sermon.
2. To give religious or moral instruction, especially in a tedious manner.
Nothing I said fits this definition anymore than what anyone else has said in this forum.

Have we really skipped straight to arguing over the definition of words instead of arguing your case? You have a thread to tend too.

Seems his only course of defence IS to quote "scripture at people" because he HAS no thoughts of his own to enter into a discussion or discourse with.
