<<<I agree that pronouncing the actions of others "intrinsically evil" when you claim that nothing is "intrinsically evil" is indeed "stupid", yet both you and Loftus continue to do it anyway>>> "...I have gone back to your post and your link and put "intrinsically" into the "find" box and nothing remotely resembling your accusation comes up--not even in the comments. Yet you put it in quotes as though either I or Mr. Loftus had made such claims? Hmmmm... That's because you didn't use the "advanced search" method called actually reading the posts. "Kissing and killing are NOT intrinsically good or evil...." Message 27215671 "John W. Loftus said... David, I am a consequentialist. I do not believe anything is intrinsically good." Message 27210413 "So your own quote admits it, right there!!" It's not my quote, they are your words and the words of John Loftus whom you denied ever used the words, "intrinsically good". The fact that you speak with forked tongue, is obvious to anyone who follows your emotional rants for more than 5 minutes. The original observation was that while Loftus denies outwardly that intrinsic evil exists, he nevertheless constantly criticizes God and His agents in terms that are undeniably objectively, (intrinsically) moral. Loftus:... "constantly acts as if the Christian God is culpable for doing wrong, commanding wrong, or failing to prevent wrong." Message 27210413 You have always done exactly the same thing, but are either too stupid or dishonest to recognize it. Nobody spends their life arguing about the matters of relative preference and taste. They don't launch into emotional rants about the choice between chocolate and vanilla. The atheist doth protest too much....
