Johannes:

Well. First, I must apologize for my hasty response. Apparently you do have some support for your claim.

I would simply state that when I referred to such things as "unanswerable," I meant currently unanswerable, not forever and ever until the end of time unanswerable. However, I can see why you interpreted this as you did and can only say that I should have been more specific then, that you might understand now.

And for what I sincerely hope will be my last words on the subject:

I really think that you should examine what it is that compels you, or what lack it is that allows you, to deny my claim to my own view. While I might (and have done so) stoop so low as to state that you are a hypocritical theist or an incomplete theist or an inconsistent theist or what-have-you, I would never think to say, "You are not a theist." The simple fact that you believe yourself to be such means that for all intents and purposes you are. I might think that you aren't very good at it, but that is simply my opinion. I would never blithely state, "No you're not."

All I have sought is that same consideration from others.
