Originally posted by ZahlanziI am not sure, but upon reflection it may be because I have more respect for you and so I am a bit tougher on you because I think you are capable of better. Robbie on the other hand is clearly stuck in a world of self delusion that I suspect I can never free him of. I am merely trying to understand the psychology of it all and want to see how he responds when faced with difficult questions. I have met a number of people like him before and it has always left me wondering to what extent they realize their own delusions. I have noticed on these forums how certain people carefully avoid certain questions, but I am not always sure to what extent that is conscious avoidance of the truth or to what extent it is unconscious, or to what extent they genuinely believe what they say but do not understand the subject matter and are afraid of being shown up as ignorant.
you don't have this much patience with me when i say that god may exist, and my faith doesn't contradict with my reasoning.
yet you put up with this buffoon much longer than anyone. why is that?
