I am almost embarrassed to have to point out how silly and ridiculous your reasoning is. The character you are playing, give it up. You can't pull it off any more after this explanation you give. Use Dumbo the elephant, Donald Duck. or a fruit fly, or something else but the Voice of Reason, you...
Are you aware that you are violating the ethics you agreed to when you joined this forum to continually make remarks about a third person that is no in your conversation, such as here? I have been the topic of conversation between you and several atheist. It is called ganging up, twisting the...
I think so. It sure does not teach atheist are righteous.The Bible teaches that atheist lie and the Bible claims atheist are fools. Don't get mad at me. Get mad at God. He said it,not me.
Anybody who is reasonably sane knows a joke when they see it. I know that I am not a fly. But, the way you reason about things, do you know that you are not the Voice of Reason.?
You put too much emphasizes on what you call evil. To a Christian or to Christ, the greatest evil was unbelief. Therefore what you call a simple "lack of belief in the existence of God" is the definition of evil to Christians. Communism does not believe in God and it is therefore evil. Atheism...
The reason the bible teaches atheist are evil is that atheist reject the moral standards given to man by God. It is a theological concept shared by Christians universally. Are you going to charge every body in Christendom with a personal attack or just me.
I do not speak for God more than any other Christian. All believers are ambassadors in Christ.
The Gadfly is here to have fun as well as to debate and defend the faith. A little laughter is good for the soul.
Read your Bible Sunstone. Don't worry about what I think. I will go along with whatever the Bibles says on this subject. Are you seeking truth or trying to harass me or set a trap for me? Do you have something you want to discuss?
Open your mind up to the truth. There were plenty of sinners who were not atheist but atheist were in a special category in Christ's time. The Bible refers to atheist as fools. Christ died for the sinners who are saved by believing on Him; but atheist who do not believe in God, according to the...
Really! If I were not constantly ignoring such charges that participants like you level at me, I would have difficulty sleeping. At least you admit that you were not citing the whole truth but that you did put a little assumption into your accusation. Thank you for that much. That is a good...
You simply refuse to read correctly. That is the theological position presented in the Bible. You twist what I say in that I did not say you should disrespect anybody. You prove the point the Bible teaches. You can not afford to trust evil or believe that Satan will not take out of context what...
Are you trolling? Clearly I stated this was a philosophical position that the Bible teaches, did I not? These thoughts are found in thousands of sources. I also pointed out that evil gets upset with enlightenment. Am I trolling here too? What is your theological position on evil, fairness and...
I have never said that I was past defending myself but that is not part of my purpose for being on this forum. It appears that you enjoy watching others suffer at the hands of vengeful people who fill they have a right to punish any one who has the nerve to oppose their logic.
Do not mistake...
No. Don't be silly. You did not think that was what I was implying. Also, why have you attacked me with such colloquial language? Don't you agree that such language goes against the imaginary image of the Voice of Reason that you are trying to display? It is as if you will not be satisfied...
If you are trying to alert me to the fact that you have pushed any philosophical differences we have into the personal zone, you have. Shall we discuss ethics next?
I take it that you approve of mud slinging and out house tactics. You might enjoy such a low level standard of debate but not I. Call it whinnying if you like but how do you have any knowledge of personal attacks on me? But thanks for the alert.

It is true that I am somewhat frustrated because I have been forced into a position that is not mine. As I read you, you do not belong in a category of atheist on this forum who have worked at stereotyping an image that does not represent what I believe. I hope that is true.
When I say that...
