Originally posted by FMFOk so you are calling me a liar, i did not really read the Gita, I have not attempted to read the Koran and see if it contains the doctrines of Mutta and Halali, I have not examined the doctrines of purgatory and transubstantiation , the trinity etc so as to determine their veracity.
Who is "simply engaging a personal preference which may have no other basis than what is socially acceptable or an emotional basis"? Surely we only have only your typed words here to assure us that you were not "simply engaging a personal preference which may have no other basis than what is socially acceptable or an emotional basis"? Once you brandish subjectiv ...[text shortened]... y losing your way in debate about spiritual matters with people whose beliefs differ from yours?
Now if you could have stuck to a rational basis for your claims i could stomach that but to insinuate that i am dishonest is beneath my dignity for anyone can see that when i post on a religious topic i try to provide reference, goodbye I refuse to waste my time being insulted by you.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieI haven't called you a "liar". I have observed that you characterize other people's beliefs ~ which are different from yours ~ as being taken from a "spiritual buffet", but do not characterize your own beliefs as being selected from a "spiritual buffet" even when you describe your own personal process and arrival at a personal preference thusly:

Originally posted by robbie carrobieI just had to come back briefly to point this out...
Indeed, our friend had and i quote stated that i 'had nothing interesting to say', a put down emphasizing his alleged superiority
By Robbie in a previous post (targeted at myself):
"When you do post something interesting i may respond and then again i may simply dismiss it."
Perhaps you are confused, but it was you who put me down, and not the other way round... is that small and concise enough for you?
This debate was never about superiority... it was simply about right and wrong,
and much of the latter has been largely demonstrated by yourself and yourself alone.
