Typhoid, you're a very hard person to discuss with. You keep implying stuff without really saying it, so you can always state "I never said that".

Example:
You say you don't want to talk about God, because you don't want to hear that the world is made in 7 days. When we tell you we don't believe that, you reply that you didn't say we did. But that really wasn't the point and you know it.

That's not it at all.

I say I don't want God brought up in this discussion because I don't want it to turn into a "God created everything" "no he didnt" Yes he did" "No he didnt" sort of thread.

I intended it with no bashing, and sadly - religion is the course of most discussion. Even as is now. I said I didn't want it brought up. Yet someone brings it up, and draws attention to it. I didn't mean it as disrespect, i simply meant it to simplify a thread on a conversational level.

All of you can pick that apart if you wish.

And Stangler, I'm done with you. Seriously. You're just a shit-disturber. You try and start arguments where no arguments are needed, and you latch on to conversations in a debatable sense, which need to attacthment. I know you'll feel the need to answer this. But I won't even read it. So feed your ego, but pay no mind.

This hasn't been a "God created everything" discussion. It has been a "God is at least a possibility for creating everything" discussion. They are very different. Its about keeping options and ideas open, and not closing them. You entered the realm of philosophy, and God is a huge philosophical part of the creation argument, so to exlcude Him is to have a dishonest discussion.

Typhoid, you say I'm a "shit-disturber" (whatever that means), but all I've done is call you our on the words that you've written and your constant back tracking. In essence, I will hold you accountable for what you say when you refuse to recognize your own words. If that angers you, examine what you say, not the person who makes the observation.
