    Just thought we hadn't really got down to Brass Tacks in the other threads.

    Here is the proposition. I'm right, you're all wrong (in varying degrees, of course).

    Cheers,

    Paul.

    Are you kidding? Are you off your rocker? That proposition is just plain absurd. It lacks philosophical merit, and is plainly the work of a madman.

    I have more credible argument.

    Infact, it is myself that is correct, and everyone else is wrong.

    Getting back to the tenor of this thread......

    I'm right and your wrong and no matter how good your point is, if it makes me think and questions my beliefs I'm going to either argue or not return the post!

    These poorly thought out responses clearly prove my point.

    Best proof on these threads, anyways.

    I've been following these posts....

    When you're right you don't need clearly thought out responses....just reactions.

    barrk,

    I believe we have already proved conclusively that your reactions are just not up to scratch without direct donut infusion. Obviously too much CMM. I will forgive your delusional state just this once.

    I would but.....

    Just the thought of me having sexual habits was referred to by Kovan as GROSS in another thread. You see, I'm way to old to be engaging in such things.

    Talking I have noticed that about you kovan

    You don't know what you are talking about.

    Now lets face it people, as most of you are North American or English, you could not possibly know anything of any real substance. That is reserved for Aussies and Kiwis. Therefore just take it as gospel that what ever opinion l offer on whatever subject is the correct view point.


    Now back to barrk, and the photos can be downloaded from where????????????

    Angry Hmmmm....kovan these religous threads go no where

    Where as you are prepared to debate, a lot of what have to be fundamental christians are totally blinked in their world view. There is no arguement to "the bible is the word of god", they are not prepared to research the emergence of Christianity and christian thought, they just blindly belief what they have been told in their sunday schools or whatever.

    Have currently two books on Islam thought and development on order, so will wait until l have read these and get back to you.

    Jethro's right, Kovan. Fundamentalist ______ (you fill in
    the blank with your favorite absolutist belief system) are
    known as "True Believers"....that is, they won't hear
    anything different from what they believe.

    This does not make them necessarily bad people though
    nearly all of historical atrocities have been performed
    by persons who were absolutely convinced they were correct
    AND right.

    You can't argue with Faith, Fools, or Horses.

    mr fukto
    agreed,
    why is it so hard for them to explain their OWN belief
    i mean if they weren't contridictions
    they would have explained them 20 times already
    for ARGUEMENT sake
    let say they have no clue how to explain them, and they dont have the knowledge to explain
    cant they go to someone that can explain them and bring the explaination and try to convince me and few others?
    i mean for god sakes, if you dont know something just admit it
    but dont say it is the absolute truth, nothing but the truth, dats final
    i personally, if i dont know something i just say so
    and if someone wants an asnwer to a question that i dont know, i simply say "i am sorry but i dont know the answer to that.. but i am sure i will get back to you with the answer shortly"

    i mean first i got critized for using my own belief system to prove the bible wrong
    ok i stopped doing that (even thou i didn't think i was using my own belief)
    then i used the BIBLE to prove the bible wrong
    then what happens?
    VVB goes and turns the issue around, just like what was expected and ignores the issue of those contridictions

    but neverless

    i think we should go to voting polls soon
    on weather i should keep debating or not

    i have to call a election first thou
    hehe

    So it doesn't get any better then barrk?

    I found Luke bouncing against the window from the headboard of his brother's bed this morning - I was not happy with him. Mind you, he wasn't too happy with me after I told him off

    Being a dad is much tougher than anything else I have ever done.

    Kovan,

    Have I not admitted that I either did not know something or that I need some time to look into your questions? Also, is that cd on the way?

    only translations in different languages
    and when translations are read or used, they are NOT accurate because of the classic arabic used, and some words in the qur'an have no meaning in any other languag
    not even all arabs undrestand them
    but next best thing is the following page
    because it gives you 3 interpertation of the meaning at same time
