You're a hypocrite, Darfius. You cut and paste more than your
fair share of drivel to this site.
I find it intellectually offensive when anyone posts something
without citing it, whether I am for it or against it.
And, while several of the claims in the post are very flawed
(no doubt the product of the bias of the author rather than
sound reason ...[text shortened]... ponder the claims only demonstrates an unwillingness to
consider the 'other side.'

I even commented on it. Your narcissism is getting annoying.
Originally posted by pcaspianI recommended your post because I believe that matters like
I don't think you, or I for that matter, have truely had our faith tested. Death of a partner, a child, suffering and destruction are true tests of faith. When all the world is at your feet and only your faith is preventing you from grabbing as much as you can hold, then you may be tested. Perhaps in our lifetimes we will never have to suffer heartbreaking tribulations, perhaps we may suffer the worst of all.
the day Jesus died is not a matter of faith. Indeed, I believe
that whether a single word of the Bible is historically true is
totally irrelevant to faith; the things you mention in your
thoughtful post are true tests of faith.
I firmly believe that, if you desparately need the Bible to be
literally, historically true, then you haven't any faith at all.

Thus, I am no more narcissicistic.
In fact, I would argue that I am less narcissicistic because,
unlike you whose life is bound up in irrational axioms like
'The Bible is always historically right,' I am willing to concede
that any article of my faith is potentially wrong.

There is plenty in the OT regarding Jesus being a descendent of David, the poster merely refered to ONE prophecy.
Sigh, you chastise Ivan for his childish tactics, so lets try...
" Again, these are PUBLIC forums, it is impossible to "interrupt" them "
Previously you suggest that a post can in deed be interupted, you suggest that the requirement for 'NOT' interupting a thread is to have already posted in it (irrespective of whether it was remotely in tune with the thread you replied to:
no1marauder : " And this a public thread that I've already posted in; how can I be "interrupting" it"?
Alas, you've demonstrated on numerous occasions a shortage of tact and forum etiquette. Ofcourse there are jerks in all facets of life, I just figure if no-one told you come across as one, you may never reflection on your behaviour. Having said that you seem to be immune to recognising any error in your ways, so I may well be mistaken.
Heck, perhaps I should join forum wars, so you can tell me what you really feel, that is without any mods interfering ?

Ah, seems not citing your references do pay off 🙂
kidding.

I think your problem is that you spend too much time acting like a jerk, that when you do have to act polite, you struggle to adjust. That may explain your online persona.
Originally posted by pcaspianI have said that off-topic evangelizing rather than discussing the issues presented is inappropriate. Do you seriously say that my post asking for other references in the OT was off-topic? If "there's plenty", please post other references in the OT of the prophecy that the Messiah would be a descendant of David as sonofsaul originally requested.

Originally posted by pcaspianI think your problem is that you like to act tough here where you can hide behind other's skirts and throw your trash around, but you lack the cajones to discuss matters where your delicate sensibilities can't be protected. If you weren't such a moral coward you would join Forum Wars and talk trash there like you do here, but it's pretty obvious you can't handle a format where people can speak their minds directly without fear of censorship.

I'm intrigued at the christians' almost audible sighs of relief at finding that this is not an original work (http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A213247).
What the lack of originality does not do is discredit the article, which is very damning and strenghtens my aethism, Darfius!

Talk trash ? I comment on your online persona which reflects that of a real life jerkoff. It is disheartening that so much of your self esteem lies in your ability to talk trash online. That is about as interesting as watching two skinny girls arm wrestle... who exactly is that suppose to impress ?
All you've managed to do tonight is prevent me from getting an early nights sleep and re-evaluating my stance on abortion.
oh well.
Originally posted by pcaspianStill too chickens**t to join Forum Wars, Pcaspian? You could insult me to your heart's delight there, but you'd actually have to take some back. I guess that would require more courage than you possess, but a "man" who's tooooo afraid to hear some harsh words ain't much of a man is "he", Pcaspian?

It was the lack of a realistic point. Conspiracy theorists need help.
