                                                                  I'll pray about it ,
                                                               and get back to you

that will be about as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum...

you don't need to pray to tell what was the premise and what was the conclusion, you're just stalling. and if you could be so kind, please tell us whether your argument was deductive or inductive...

WilbyInebriated, I think you missed the point of my original post.  There is no conclusive evidence for either atheists, theists, or agnostics to be the victor.  This is an argument with no end and therefore your original rules are meaningless and futile as no one would be able to respond to "your" thread on a public forum.

Your aggressive stance and trolling demeanor does nothing for your position and makes you look childish and immature.  This forum has been in desperate need for proper moderation for some time now and you are becoming another example of that.

This thread is a perfect example why Jesus said, “Don’t cast your pearls before swine.”

“Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces" (Matthew 7:6).

Spiritual dumbness has nothing to do with one's IQ. You can be a certified genius yet be dumb as a rock in spiritual matters.

Don't waste your time preaching to those who are obviously hardened and scornful. They will turn and tear you to pieces with their words, which is exactly what is happening in this thread. We have an angry dog spinning in circles and biting at everyone around it.

Clearly, what is happening here shows the wisdom of those words He spoke thousands of years ago.

Amazing, isn’t it?

i understood completely. however, in point of fact, it had been requested several times that you don't post if you cannot provide material evidence or a logical proof. you choose to post regardless... this is an argument which should never have begun, and never would have, had you (and the others) shown some regard.

you are the example of the need for proper moderation...

and yet you cannot provide a single shred of material evidence nor a logical proof of your imaginary godfairy, imagine that. amazing isn't it... furthermore, you are putting the cart before the horse. vet your imaginary godfairy before you go spouting its alleged dogma.

this thread is a perfect example of why bertrand russell said ""what a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. the origin of myths is explained in this way."
