You claim to understand the bible, but you've never read it. That makes absolutely no sense. That is why I say you have no merit in this discussion. It's like me saying I know all about your past, but I've never actually seen it. I just read it on a site that has a list of all the bad things you do or I heard it from other like mindedpeople and will agree with them because I couldn't make an argument without them..
I have been polite. You only assume I'm in an angry tone because you're upset because you know I'm right. As I said, do some real solid research and come back when you can validate your examples from the source, not from web sites designed to throw a hate campaign on other people's beliefs.
As for your consideration towards others in this thread....
Oh my loving god, you're an idiot. Internet information can generally be trusted, contrary to what your christian republican mother told you, because people genuinely have no reason to pay money as well as upkeep a website just to fool you.
So much for being polite, hypocrite. Just leave, now. Quietly and no one will have to show you how you are further embarrassing yourself.
Rughugger is stubborn in his beliefs. He will not acknowledge that God is highly improbable, but there's nothing I can do as I have presented the facts and evidence. He's not as bad as a fundamentalist, so it doesn't bother me as much that he retains his beliefs despite my debating.
I don't doubt there is a chance he never existed. That he is simply a means to explain natural phenomenon in a world where education was limited and restricted for reason. But I find it just as possible that there is a God, whether it be a supernatural being or aliens who try to mold our civilization from it's beginnings. Point is, short of him showing up or a 100% proof coming up that there is no other life in the universe, we can't say either for sure.
But I do respect that you can at least respect my beliefs some even if you don't choose to believe in them, which I feel is perfectly fine.
