<The original post was titled "Absolute Relativism" and all it did was point out that a common Atheistic argument against Christianity (Argument from Evil) is wielded by people who expressly claim that Good and Evil do not exist. You didn't bother responding to that post at all > That's right! So why do you keep bringing it up. I brought up an entirely new idea.............. you just figuring that out? No wonder you misunderstood the whole thing. DAK

No, athiests are simply saying they don't believe in a god. They are not saying they know there is no god, or that it has anything to do with evil. Just that there is no such thing. That the claim of gods is like a claim there are unicorns. Until I see a horn, there is no way I can believe, using logic!! All athiests are saying is, show me the evidence and I will change my mind. Charles Pierce: "Man can only be, but must always be, in one of three states of mind: belief, doubt or non belief, and he has no control over it! >> The original post was titled "Absolute Relativism" and all it did was point out that a common Atheistic argument against Christianity (Argument from Evil) is wielded by people who expressly claim that Good and Evil do not exist. You didn't bother responding to that post at all except to demonstrate the same type of irrational thought process. I do know this much absolutely. (Although this is a canard that you have interjected and is not directly related to the substance of the post in question) Self contradictory statements cannot be both true and untrue at the same time and in the same way. That's called logic. Why don't you try it?
