Hi again Rod,

<<The notion that there was some sentient being or beings directly responsible for the creation of the universe is not at odds with my statement regarding the fabrication of man-made gods. I haven't made any assumptions about what form the creator(s) might take.>>

care to know about this Creator you speak of? Start at Genesis 1.!

<<In other words, their ignorant and asinine on the face of it. One should expect a certain level of frustration when attempting to reason with the irrational and child-like arguments of babbling cult members >>

Much different than your notion that you will board some sort of vehicle, with some sort of a god, and go somewhere,sometime ?

Rod, what I want to know is if you do not believe as Christians do, why do you hound us with your views of how ignorant we are? Has some Christian stretched you on a rack? Or raided your hometown? We cannot do anything about the inquisition, or anything our ancestors did so why not just talk about what we can to TODAY!

PHILIPPIANS 3: 8-14<"More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord,for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I may gain Christ,and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the law, but that which is through FAITH IN CHRIST, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, that I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death;in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.Not that I have already attained it, or have already become perfect, but I press on in order that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I DO: FORGETTING WHAT LIES BEHIND AND REACHING FORWARD TO WHAT LIES AHEAD. I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.">

Rod, God loves you, and the fact you are here arguing with us proves that you seek Him. Well when you see Him, don't deny Him. May God open your eyes to see, and ears to hear.

the toll on the mental health of those who entrap themselves in that make-believe world is truly of tragic proportions.

My soul is at peace, Rod. You are the one who is frustrated. Why are you frustrated? Why are you attempting to "reason" with believers of some religion, when you have *nothing* to offer, but are still "challenged and searching"? You are accomplishing zippo, even if you succeeded in causing someone's belief in God to falter. You have nowhere else to take them. You have no mission, no direction. I really sympathize with you. Don't worry about us, we're happy. You are unhappy. Worry about yourself.
