"<br /><br /><br />In other words, he will simply say he's answering copernicus according to his own conceit since he's a "fool". Look, he never intended to deal seriously with these questions, and my 12-y/o could give better answers than the mish mash he's put out. <br /><br />I'm telling you again, you're wasting your time with this guy. Let him live in his own little bizarre net cubbyhole, no one reads him anyway, though his site claims about 7 followers. What are they, zombies? I never see any comments from them. <br /><br />You had to know these questions would be too formidable for his lower hominid level brain, so why not just ignore him and his nonsense? Why even let your BP go up 1 point because of some foolishness he posts? I wouldn't!<br /><br />Just my two cents, but I personally wouldn't waste another nansecond on this bozo, he's not worth it!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864292327259837089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6301096656497422535.post-69552920266799153702010-03-10T16:02:47.400-08:002010-03-10T16:02:47.400-08:00manowar writes:

This is hardly answering questions with one's own mind. <br />"<br /><br />I totally agree, which is why he used up all those extra kilobytes for nothing - since I didn't count them. Copying in bible quotes doesn't count in terms of thinking for oneself - which is what I expect when I ask for serious answers to questions I ask. Any FOOL on the street can grab a bible and simply copy chapter and verse. That doesn't prove he knows what he's talking about, far less he knows or grasps the content of the question put to him.<br /><br /><br />"He instead basically says his god was more interested in helping him quit smoking. His god shows it was obviously easier to help the pastor quit smoking than so save millions of innocents from extermination. This doesn't make any sense. "<br /><br />Totally concur again, which is why - as You wil note, I totally excluded his monologue on his stroke and smoking as any way relevant. If he can't answer the BIG moral questions, then my insight his the little ones can't be addressed either. I quit smoking too (in 1967) but did it out of sheer cold recognition (after waking up and not b eing able to catch my breath one night) that if I didn't I'd soon be dead man walking (or...smoking). Thus, Mike is prepared to short sell his own human will power in this, while he awards his God this power which the guy can't seem to mamange to extend to 6 million Jews.<br /><br />Incredible!<br /><br />"I really don't think this pastor has the mental ability to establish his position on anything having to do with any faith much less his own."<br /><br /><br />Again, this is why I refer to him as a "religious fool" with appropriate clothing to match. Any jackass can climb aboard the evangelical 'belief in JC' craze and proclaim himself "saved". That doesn't prove diddly. What I want to know is how much inner work have you done? How much interior reflection and heavy lifting in terms of exploring your deepest thoughts, inclinations, the farther reaches of existential matters and human ethics. <br /><br />Clearly, the pastor has done little of that. <br /><br />I'm glad he feels he's been saved or "redeemed" by his magical faith and KJV, but he needs to grasp that his magic formula doesn' work for everyone, nor should it. We for some guy named Lee Strobel de-converting from atheism, again- that proves no more to me than telling me about C.S. Lewis. All it tells me is that they were faux atheists to begin with, and their thought and commitment was so weak and insubstantial that any siren song from a padre or bible thumper loon could harness them.<br /><br />Mike needs to do much more deep reflection before he tries to answer any more questions.Copernicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16699554476216140859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6301096656497422535.post-43964970356793034342010-03-10T12:11:25.948-08:002010-03-10T12:11:25.948-08:00Hey Copernicus,

This is hardly answering questions with one's own mind. <br /><br />I also liked the pastor's answer on why god didn't think it important enough to save the millions destroyed in nazi concentration camps. Again many of them women, children, and babies. Mike went on to answer with his bible quotes which showed no real relevance to the question. He instead basically says his god was more interested in helping him quit smoking. His god shows it was obviously easier to help the pastor quit smoking than so save millions of innocents from extermination. This doesn't make any sense. <br /><br />I hear the same bull from other christians, all this god's will crap. Give me a break, it's nothing more than a cop-out answer. His god would rather make sure all these phony evangilist types get what they pray for, such as new cars, plenty of money, rolex watches, etc. Kind of lame if you ask me. The same results could be gotten with what is commonly called "CHANCE", or just luck. No god involved. The praying part was just coincidental to the end result, nothing more, nothing less. <br /><br />I really don't think this pastor has the mental ability to establish his position on anything having to do with any faith much less his own. He also goes on about himself not being affiliated with or belonging to any religous sect, group, or generally recognized religion. In other words the pastor is nothing more than some guy who picked up a bible and made up his own religion, a hate religion, that in the end, if there is a hell as he states, he'll surely burn in it.<br /><br />The pastor does remind me of a religion and pastor though. One that comes to mind is the Westboro Baptist Church. A religion based totally on hate. Again Copernicus you have showed us readers that this pastor is incapable of the simplest reasoning or answering of the most elementary questions put to him.ted. hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11805727808720569391noreply@blogger.com
