OK Listen, you can't counter my complaints against God using God's own supposed words.  I don't want to listen to him.

Convince me yourself.

the worst debate I've ever had was with an actual atheist archaeologist

he was incapable of sticking to a topic

he stated many things which were wrong(and i Proved it)

he was so puffed up filled with pride thinking that he was above me intellectually

but he refused to present evidence, mocked my sources instead of tackling the content etc etc etc

he kept asking me to check out his papers on something COMPLETELY irrelevant to the topic to establish some type of superiority over me

it was appeal to authority(in this case himself) to the umpteenth degree

so don't feel so bad is my point lol

your not the only one

Yep lots of ad hominem and distraction tactics in my post.

---

distractionary topic shift

your more interested in being right then evaluating the facts which you push aside or sweep under the carpet

you then go on to state several things without any supporting evidence

but this is over because I know where these loops of madness always end up

---

Yes, the end up with links to YouTube videos that are always the core springboard for the beliefs of our preachers and fundamentalists around here.

Proverbs 1:

20Wisdom shouts in the street,
        She lifts her voice in the square;
    21At the head of the noisy streets she cries out;
        At the entrance of the gates in the city she utters her sayings:
    22"How long, O naive ones, will you love being simple-minded?
        And scoffers delight themselves in scoffing
        And fools hate knowledge?
    23"Turn to my reproof,
        Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you;
        I will make my words known to you.
    24"Because I called and you refused,
        I stretched out my hand and no one paid attention;
    25And you neglected all my counsel
        And did not want my reproof;
    26I will also laugh at your calamity;
        I will mock when your dread comes,
    27When your dread comes like a storm
        And your calamity comes like a whirlwind,
        When distress and anguish come upon you.
    28"Then they will call on me, but I will not answer;
        They will seek me diligently but they will not find me,
    29Because they hated knowledge
        And did not choose the fear of the LORD.
    30"They would not accept my counsel,
        They spurned all my reproof.
    31"So they shall eat of the fruit of their own way
        And be satiated with their own devices.
    32"For the waywardness of the naive will kill them,
        And the complacency of fools will destroy them.
    33"But he who listens to me shall live securely
        And will be at ease from the dread of evil."

Stop posting this crap! (Although I'm glad you're out of the Google up some philosoher's quotes phase). Last warning.

are you claiming that I cannot post bible verses germane to the points being made?

---

I'm saying that you cannot flood the forum with posts that are only vaguely relevant. Like you used to do with page after page of philosophy quotes.

Neither can you or anyone, disprove someone's arguments with unmotivated quotes.

What you're doing is preaching and that is not acceptable in this forum.

your abusing your power here and you know it

you've created conflict where there was none and completely ruined the conversation we were having

---

The reason I intervened is because the conflict has been simmering. My entrance only made it boil and made it more clear that nearly everyone is getting irritated here.

I'll remind you that I am under constant attack in this forum

so when they get a little ticked off its my fault even though I'm perfectly within the topic?

riiiiight

From what I've gathered your ideas often come up. But it is philosophy and one of philosophy's and sociology's and psychology's traditional areas of study is religion, fundamentalism and theology in their philosophical, psychological and sociological contexts. If analysis at that level bothers you then stay away from such threads.

Also, you attack people as well, even without provokation. Do not forget John 8:7: So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
