Grampy Bobby always dodges the question too. The things you or I think are "real" may be "imaginary" to someone else. The question is about believing and not believing, and not about what you personally claim is "real".
Do you believe that a person can just somehow decide to believe in something that somebody else just so happens to claim is "real" when he or she simply doesn't believe it and considers it "imaginary"?

The Male Tooth Fairy Model for recycling of children's milk teeth is an Establishment Lie!
Have you ever seen a male Tooth Fairy?
Use your eyes.

Originally posted by FMFDo you mean "mystery" in the theological sense, as in "religious truth via divine revelation, hidden spiritual significance, mystical truth," or do you mean it in the mastery sense, as in "handicraft, trade, art" sense?
It's no mystery as to why the question gets dodged.
Sounds like you might be getting religious on us up in here.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyDo you contend that you can just choose to believe in something that you don't believe in? Perhaps you can give an example from your own life where you managed to do this.

So your 'choice' is utter [stuff that comes out of the south end of a north facing bull].
And I ask again, do you truly appreciate that every time you threaten us/me/anyone with your so called 'choice'
I hate and despise you and your religion a little more?
*A fact I am for one, rather happy about.

This from someone who started a thread saying Michelle Obama was a man.
There is a Debate Forum which is for "Potentially heated discussions on topics such as world affairs, politics and other such areas of interest."
I made a thread with the title "Michelle Obama may be a transsexual" because of information out in the public. I presented most of this information by video. It seemed a good controversial topic to discuss and debate to me.
