I just recognize that this is a topic that no-one's going to change their mind about.

Yeah...I realized that long ago...but everybody's gotta have a mission...and I'm not done telling about the historical beginnings of Christianity in Vanni's Challenge...perhaps there's room for enlightenment yet?

Y'know something?
I'm not overly concerned about the historical beginnings of Christianity. I can appreciate the wonder of a newborn and not fret at all whether DNA has been mapped. I know enough about gravity to wish some days that it was a little weaker ;)... I don't need to understand all the science behind it.

I'm not an expert on the Bible, but I understand the faith part of it.

My upbringing taught me to respect other people's views and beliefs, even if they differ from mine. I think I'm doing okay so far.

As for the "C" word... I've heard it. I wasn't impressed then, I'm not impressed now.

Your not suppossed to be impressed. You latched onto the wrong word in a hurry though, judging by your answer. I guess it runs easier for you that way.

Let's appeal to the gallery then, shall we?

Think I just figured out what the C stands for. No, not that, although... Nevermind.

What word could the Rev possibly have been thinking of?

Anyone?

Keep going...you'll hit it in a bit.

C...if I wanted to call you a C*nt I would have just gotten on with it. You should at least know me that well by now. Nobody has every accused me of having a clean mouth or a lot of restraint, after all.

No, you couldn't have said it... at least not here. The best you could do was hint at it and then pretend you didn't know what I was talking about if and when I complained.

I may be naive, but I'm not stupid.

Never Give Up said:
The war on terror is nothing to do with religion. It is to do with the Project for the New American Century. (PNAC) This is a document prepared by the neo cons in 1997. It's goal is Pax American. One of its stated goals, even back then, was an invasion of Iraq. Within days of 9/11 rather than the focus being stricly on Al Qaeda, the attack was already being planned for Iraq.

The power of Nightmares

If you subscribe to the PNAC agenda then that 3 part series is relevant. You can watch it here the overall synopsis is that there are two major players, the Neo Cons and the Radical Muslim fundamentalists. The series correctly labels them as the last idealists. That makes them very much 'faith' based movements that have everything to do with religion as it is the basis of their respective motivations much like the CHP.

C wanted to play word games, but got all upset when I didn't call her a c*nt. Life sucks for her, I guess

The power of nightmares is an excellent series, Scape. The information on Leo Strauss and his followers is very enlightening.

Nice try, Rev. I'm not upset, and unless you do some editing before you go to bed, all your words will be there for everyone to see in the morning. They can judge for themselves.

They will...including,
Think I just figured out what the C stands for. No, not that, although... Nevermind.

You've spent a couple pages showing that I was likely wrong to say "nevermind."

Just for the record...I don't pay Lady C to prove my point. She does it for free. Usually grudgingly and by accident.

Rev...
If you are going to claim I've been acting like a c*nt, (You've spent a couple pages showing that I was likely wrong to say "nevermind.") you really should provide the methodology used to form that hypothesis... you being the man of science and all.
