The devil does have a point to make. The proof is as they say in the pudding. But since I have no category and there is no precedent you can make no assumptions concerning how things shall unfold.

Genesis 3:15

quote:

And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her seed;
He shall bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise him on the heel."

I did not say that atheists were crazy. Misguided? Yes. Crazy? No.

If by "Gods word" you mean the Bible then yes this is what the research I've seen indicates.

The results are very noticeable and not in a good way. Consider BM for a moment his intuition is so thoroughly in charge that he often can't even hold a conversation. He's so busy following connections which aren't actually there that the result is frequently gibberish and he's reduced to having conversations with himself in these long rambles.

You're a good portion of the way there which is why those of us who find this process saddening try to reason with you.

I can see why the atheist community may be worried of the accusation that they are crazy. Is not being in possession of the Truth delusional? Yes, but this is normal. There are niches for Atheists to do good.

Take some friendly advice and get some help, it actually hurts to see someone like this. And I'm not being sarcastic or mean when I say this, despite how it may seem.

For example, I held a delusion that atheists were intellectuals. It stemmed from a falsehood.

Though your pity is misguided it is good to know you are capable of such feeling. I too am capable of such feeling. Falsehood puts people at odds.

This is why it is important not to summarily reject Atheists though they may have the outward appearance of being the devil. They are struggling much as you to grasp the Truth. Even I am not equally good at everything. Be their light. Some were born blind.

You can't honestly be taking him seriously after the spear of destiny comment, right? Tell me you're not buying that as a serious comment. If so, wanna consider Buying Carol from me? If not I have a hot stable of hot nigerian slaves I could let go at a discount.

Yes, little one.

For those who are interested in what the Spear of Destiny is.

quote:

http://io9.com/5889471/what-is-the-spear-of-destiny-and-where-can-you-get-it

(The Spear of Destiny is a) spear with a mystical background (that) gives the one wielding it powers to bend the destiny of the world to his or her will. It sounds like a Dungeons and Dragons campaign, but (the) truth is far more bizarre ...

As such my claim is an audacious one. Be my guest if you wish to be my foe. You may find it is better to be my friend, than my enemy. Unfortunately, the proclivity of man is to be an enemy.
