    Looks like his tact is to start other threads and hope no one notices.

    Why not answer your own question?
    I would say you probably know less than 0.1% of everything there is to know. Would you at least concede there may well be evidence for the existence of God in the 99.9% of knowledge that you do not possess?

    You are clear about what you are saying here aren't you...?
    I already told you God is not liable to anyone but some of the laws he has given us are absolute. Or are all God's commands optional in your opinion?

    'Obviously' I meant answer the question in regards to your own knowledge. Is that also 0.1% or does that just apply to the knowledge of others?

    And if your knowledge is only 0.1% how are we meant to give any credibility to your repeated assertions that there are absolutes?!

    (And for the tenth time, i'm open to any new evidence that God exists and would change my mind if faced with convincing evidence. Absolutes are your bag spanky).

    What evidence would suffice?

    It seems that the human body, and specifically the brain, should be evidence enough that 'something is going on here'.

    Todays science does not understand the brain, or dreams.

    It would probably have to be something I experienced first hand.

    Evolution accounts for the development of the brain. But sure, we are still learning about it.

    I personally disagree with evolution and Darwin.

    I may have no answers regarding Jesus and Christianity, but it's clear to me that 'man' was created.

    Evolution is a weak interpretation of many unexplained forces.

    I don't need God to appear before me to realize He created us.

    We disagree on this, I'm sure.

    God killed children, so is the killing of children universally morally acceptable?

    Only the creator of life has the right to take it away whenever he sees fit. We are not his equals and we should not 'play God'. Do you believe all God's commands to us are optional or are some of them absolute?

    So you find killing children morally acceptable in some cases?

    So you think that regardless of the circumstances, it is always wrong to steal?

    So we are satisfied that this one of the ten commandments is not a moral absolute then?
