"It's only when pressed that you "say" that "there are no OUGHTS" but your actions speak louder than your words. Trying to suppress your God given moral conscience while claiming that a God given moral conscience does not exist must get very tiring after a while: does it not?"

The only "actions" you have ever witnessed from me or "WORDS".

When I criticize superstition that directs people to make dangerous and reckless choices for not only themselves...but in the lives of others, it is more than a flavor of vanilla, isn't it?? When I condemn the Inquisition or the murder of people like Giordano Bruno, it is more than a hint of chocolate, isn't it??

I have never expressed "highly charged emotion and moral outrage" over something as unimportant as chocolate or vanilla, have I??

"People don't jump up and down and call other people names because they like a different flavor of ice cream"

The "jumping ip and down" is of course your own invention and your attempt to mislead by continuing to bring straw men into the discussion. The calling of names (or {more usually}the use of appropriate adjectives) is NEVER over a flavor of ice cream. So why don't you stop making a fool of yourself??

Note: accusing you of acting like a "fool" has nothing to do, with ice cream. It addresses my sharing an honest opinion with you. I am not "morally outraged" that you are acting like a fool. I am simply aware of it and feel responsible to correct any dishonesty you bring to the thread.
