There is nothing inherently wrong with atheism.

In reality, one has nothing to do with the other. 2. You already look stupid, and, 3. Your trying to get JL to play your game of "Here are your only choices, choose now!" makes you look stupider yet. --- >Show which way I was confused. --- How many ways does the wind blow? --- >If you're a Christian, why not make it public. >You're in the gang, in the club, part of the group, in the herd. >You should easily be able to post 'I am Christian.' >Or post 'I am a _______ Christian.' >Where _____ is one of those 38000 Christian denominations. >It should be easy for you to post that you're Christian because the >majority of North America is Christian. >This should be as easy you writing 'I am an engineer.' >Are you going to let some stupid atheist make you shy in posting what >religion you are in. --- Oh, my... It seems that by being, by your own admission, a stupid atheist, you've never pondered the difference between being spiritual and religious or sorted out the difference between spirituality and religion. --- >Perhaps there's lots of Christians on SED that would feel all warm and >fuzzy inside after you post 'I Larkin am a Christian engineer.' --- And what would be wrong with that? Being a Christian engineer would bind him to the Old Testament as well as to the New, where lies are forbidden, so his machines would have to perform as he stated they would which, as far as I know, they do. And you, gadfly, why are you here? JF

Where's the post of 'I am of the _________ religion'? Or maybe my reading ability is not good. Did you write somewhere that meant 'I am of the ______ religion'? And what was the ______. I missed that part. This should be easily repeated. But if you would rather not say then I'll respect that. -- D from BC British Columbia
