Who needs a God when you can be kind and nice, in real life anyway?

Well, then humor me, please.

Do you believe in God, or not?

And thank you for posting, allowing me to go to the source.
He is Hindu if I have observed correctly. So, no, he is not an atheist.

Care to express it in any terms?

Not really. Why? Do you not believe me? I am not a religionist. Is that the sticking point?

On the contrary I believe you fully; I just want ot know more. It's a sort of mix between curiosity, friendship and nosiness if that helps 😀

I am off to Kuala Lumpur now for a few days. So maybe I will start an "I am a theist" thread (again) when I get back.

In fact I intend to force the pilots to go to Havana.

There *are* those who are kind and nice and who *do* believe in God, you know.

Indeed my lady.

In fact, it is my observation that mikelom is the one that seems to be provoking anger from Christians when we otherwise leave him be.

I'm looking forward to it.

I apologize in advance for calling you atheist, if you are not.

As dive said, I'm curious. I always assumed you were atheist, and I'd like to hear about your faith. I can only assume a belief in God (or "A" God of some kind), since you say you are a theist. By definition this assumes a belief in a deity.

Enjoy Malaysia.

I have said nothing contrary to that. If I didn't believe that then I wouldn't be posting here!

There are those who are kind and nice that don't believe in God too.

Seems the current condition of this forum for the last six months, reading back, appears to be that atheists are a bunch of losers, so I therefore make a stand.

LOL

I've been in the forum for about a month if I filter out all the Dasa mess, there's a little bit about Christianity left and it seems quite the opposite.

Atheists aren't losers. Has anyone really said that?

Provoke, or ask questions? Are you fearful of my simple questions?

Your return post in itself was provocation, and undue.

I *would* go back and capture all your snide remarks but alas, I'm too old for that stuff anymore. The people can judge for themselves.

Meanwhile, keep making your stand. I support your right to do so.
