No it is not the truth. I have picked something about evolution to refute and it is impossible to stay on that because there is always someone that will ask, "but what about this or that?" .
If have suggested one such topic earlier on: how did Australian fauna get to and from the Ark?

The ignorant thinking in sonhouse's thread ("A new religion, IF THERE WAS A GOD:" ) made me unable to resist posting in it.
But I now see that all of the atheists in this forum who have made their beds and now lie in them are truly blind to the 'wheels within wheels' thinking that dominates this forum now. And you all consider yourselves "above the fray ...[text shortened]... at me and say "Good riddance!"
Myself, I can only say, with all sincerity, "Adieu".

The atheists--- who cannot hope to cogently describe why they continue frequenting the forum, and have to date refused/failed to do so--- are little more than terrorists/protesters.
They are loathe to either join in or allow thoughtful discussion on the topics which arise, instead taking every single opportunity to employ their bullhorn of sarcasm and ridicule, insisting there is no basis for spirituality.
A sorry, sorry lot indeed, whose main solidarity is clicking a hyperlink with the image of a downward facing thumb in a symbolic gesture of their intense displeasure and/or hatred.
Scorched earth, fellas.

That's not evolution. However, I did answer this kind of question about kangaroos on another thread.
In several ways the story of Noah's Ark IS linked to evolution, maybe thats why you talk about it so much.
But fair enough, let's say it isn't. So pick another subject - but remember: no abuse, no Bible references, no red herrings. Just plain science and logic.
OK?

I don't feel any need to be respectful to those that are not respectful to me.
Why should we follow Christ's teaching of turning the other cheek? Naah!
Rather do what Paul says so eloquently: "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who never ignored an insult and always responded in kind. He never allowed himself to be humbled but always made sure that others respected his honor. That is why he is our example, and has been raised to the right hand of God".

Do you really think that's the issue here?
They are loathe to either join in or allow thoughtful discussion on the topics which arise, instead taking every single opportunity to employ their bullhorn of sarcasm and ridicule, insisting there is no basis for spirituality.so given your post I think my question was relevant.

you making a thread about how he cries for attention is a cry for attention.
Originally posted by sonhouseBuddhists aren't necessarily atheist, it's just that the purpose of the religion is to escape the cycle of life, death and reincarnation, that the gods are subject to as well. So it's not so much that they are atheist, it's just that the gods aren't important. Which is quite an interesting concept in a religion.
Buddhists seem to think so.

If that's true, then there are 2 reasons to label him a master-baiter. 🙂
