Quite enough to know that only the lost, the utterly lost, would worship it.....you astound me with what appears to be a lack of even the most rudimentary scientific reasoning.... You are a Pilchdown Man.... Hehe. You tried to make a funny!I'd love to hear what you think describes a vote among scientists. Here, almost every dang belief is just a dang vote, Shep.It seems to me you once said you were an atheist....what kind of experience did you have or knowledge did you gain that changed you mind? I'm glad you asked, and I wish to tell you; but you must first tell me precisely what God has to do to change yours.I'd really like you to describe your god.. Well then I will, but you must first describe your demands of Him. Tell me exactly what you expect Him to do, since you sit so dang high and almighty-- demanding "proof" before believing in Him.Your callousness about HIV and what you think is politicization disgusts me ....sorry but I can't think of any euphemisms.... No need to apologize. I only appear callous to you because ultimately, I see you and the dying wretches you've mentioned, as one and the same. Shedding tears about your lot here on earth ain' gon mean a dang thing to nobody. What matters is whether you can look beyond nature. But you don't even acknowledge that possibility. Ni dass what I call lost! The fact is, you are gettin' so dang hot at my posture because your perishing life is all you have, and I've now told you flatly that it is ultimately worth less than squat. And what's worse, you know I'm telling you the dang troof. Ignore the greater reality and hold tightly to your worthless life if you wish. You are still going to lose everything - every friggin' thing. And it is going to happen very soon. That's the horror of it.Please don't describe yourself as godly....you're not.... Fine, Shep. Surely you don't think I fear the worthless opinions of a dead man.One more thing....your constant use of the word dang instead of damn is phony..... It ain't phony at all. I've used "damned" here plenny o' times. I just like "dang" betta. Watch dis: "I thinks folks is crazy! I mean DAMN!" (something not quite as punchy about it. But watch dis:) "I thinks folks is crazy! I mean DANG!" (Sounds betta to me. So I use it. Nothing phoney about it.)Until recently oral sex was against the law in Connecticut.... (lookin' warily at Shep) Uh don't know what dat got to do wid me, Shep. I don't live in Connecticut. But since giving me this information seems to give you some kinda plesha, I say okay, just make dang sho you stay ovah deah wheah you at.
