Ok, just be aware there may be interruptions. I have fans. One seems to stalk me from thread to thread begging for my attention by interrupting discussions I am having with others.

i may have interruptions as well , there are a multitude of others who enjoy my comic interludes into subjects which do nothing but go back and forth like 2 kids fighting over who started it, and i hate to disappoint
I understand. The small dogs should stay on the porch.

Thanks for fixing the link.
It seems the peanut gallery has ran out of steam. Oh well it happens....
Now, if GIA could post how he has came to such a conclusion things can progress.
never had steamed peanuts....I wonder if charlie browns shirt would straighten out?
I've never met an atheist who isn't also agnostic. Meaning they don't claim to know if a god exists or not. I've met a few Christians who are not agnostic. I'm curious if anyone on this site claims to know if god exists or doesn't exist. I posted a poll to find out.
I have met some who claim to be Atheist and didn't try and hide behind nonsense to make themselves feel better.
By nonsense I assume you mean bible bashing. And yeah, some atheists do not bash the bible. But bible bashing is not just an atheist sport. Some Christians do it too, at least the old testament.
I don't know if I qualify as a bible basher. I think the bible is a rich cultural heritage. I don't have a problem with it as long as people don't try to use it to support inhumane views.
Bible bashing is part of it but by nonsense I mean whatever doesn't stand up to truth.
Do I have to label myself as something? Do I believe there's a man sitting on a cloud looking down on us all? I think it's unlikely. Do I know, who or what or if anything made us and is out there? No and nobody else does either.
Define "nonsense".
Would you say I am bashing the Bible when I say something like: "Adam and Eve is very unlikely virtually impossible"? JC.
I'd label you as Agnostic and give you a thumbs up for this wise and open minded approach.

lol, thank you
Look in the dictionary.
The dictionary's definition is not adequate in your case. Instead of a common standard you have your own individual standard of what makes sense.
Not at all. That's just accepting reality, at least as it is currently understood. Man evolved from primitive apes. Christians who still believe in a literal Adam and Eve are in the minority.
Ah except we have Doombug here demanding my proof that the premise the A&E did not happen as stated in the Bible. :shrug:
There's lots of fossil and genetic evidence that man evolved from primitive apes. But I suppose one could argue that A&E were different. I've heard some Christians propose that God created A&E souls and put them in their bodies. So A&E were the first people with souls. The problem with that is I don't see any reason to believe in souls. Our thoughts, desires and emotions seem to be the product of our brain.
