<delusional..... but I suppose I will leave well enough alone.>

When I walk down near the harbour there is a shelter there and now and then one of the men is out front frothing at the mouth, swinging his hands wildly, and making threatening gestures.

I walk across the street and pass on the other side.

I think you doing the same thing here is wise.

"I cut him off for his misbehavior ..."

Your own behavior was certainly nothing to hold up as virtuous. When it became apparent to you that you were losing the discussion you got nasty and escalated the labeling and name calling. Actually you started with labeling and name calling and everything went down hill from there. The sad thing is that you were doing the very things that you complained so loudly about in others, for instance: exclusively claiming the "TRUTH" that claiming exclusive TRUTH was wrong. Your frustration and damage to your own credibility has been largely self inflicted. Talk about "delusional".

You never did manage to show where a Straw Man argument was constructed or used even though that should have been easy IF it were true. Some people like to dish it out but just can't take it when the shoe is on the other foot. You were perfectly happy labeling others as "religionists" while dishonestly refusing to state your own religious position. I don't see that changing.

The last straw for you seemed to come when I refused to INSTANTLY answer your demand that I explain how you were YOURSELF a fundamentalist "religionist". That's where you came unglued as it were. A little ironic coming from someone who dishonestly refused for so long to answer legitimate pertinent questions. BTW (unlike you) I didn't refuse to answer: I just that I wanted you to consider the statement for a while first.

"but I suppose I will leave well enough alone."

Ya right, and you weren't going to debate Christianity either. What you are doing now could rightly be called the DORK and MINDY show. Making public posts to others about me using my quoted words is hardly what I call leaving "well enough alone", In fact it's a cheap way of continuing the conversation while dishonestly claiming that you are above it all. If you want to be honest then step up to the plate. I see the attraction for you not doing that because you swing like a girl.
