"I guess there are over 13 trillion 568 million and 37 ways to give in philanthropy. Building a hospital would qualify as one way I am sure (if it was done with proper intent)."

Most certainly but would one not expect that one of the greatest humanitarians to have ever lived would have done something more than write long winded and petty, polemical, attacks on other Humans and their beliefs? Surely there must be more to it than that? I mean, besides being an ambulance chaser and killing his own countrymen in the Civil War: what did he do to qualify for such a lofty title as "one of the most respected, loved, and accomplished humanitarians of all time"?

""God's "merciful" murderous rages?"

You are a liar and you know it""

"I was not accusing your God of being merciful."

You were purposefully misrepresenting and twisting the point I was making about the distinction between justice and mercy. That is simply intellectual dishonesty on your part and it shows an inability to respond to actual arguments in favor of taking cheap shots. I see you have studied Ingersoll's methods well and continue to employ them. Keep that up and you too may be considered for inclusion on the Infidels.org list of the greatest Humanitarians ever!
