So, what are the fundamental topics that draw the greatest interest on this forum? This could be a simple listing, if there were a way to describe them that isn't itself divisive.
1. JW/non-JW issues
2. Relatively friendly discussions between believers on some Biblical point.
3. Theist/Non-theist issues
4. Evolution/Creation (perhaps a subset of (3).
"It's becoming apparent to me that voluminous posts in this forum militate against clarity. Ineffective communication and needless frictions result. Let's give a single sentence reply experiment a shot. Compound sentences are frowned upon but permitted. All topics should be introduced in an orderly manner. Too many conversations in progress will discourage participation. Topics should also respect this forum's charter: "Debate and general discussion of the supernatural, religion, and the life after." (Russ & Chris) I owe Paul Dirac II conversation on the topic of "Tithing". And have enjoyed swapping thoughts with JS357 and googlefudge on the topic of Rene Descartes' intricate speculations. Thank you." (OP)

These questions seem to encapsulate many of the recurring topics and themes.

What arrogance galveston! Besides, it's not true. If you did have such an expansive resource you wouldn't be so ignorant about God's Word and what it teaches.
What you and rc really need are some good English grammar books and spell check.

Hows that for a one line comment GB? 🙂

It's grammatically indecipherable.
What you should be asking yourself is why do the vast majority of Christains know and understand the doctrine of the Godhead but you don't.
In case you don't get it I'll explain. We understand it because we hear the voice of God in the scriptures as it is taught to us by the Holy Spirit.
You don't. Instead you hear and listen to a bunch of old men that control your minds through corrupt teachings and the doctrines of devils.

Arrogance indeed.
In addition knowledge is of no value.
The application of that knowledge might be of some value ifff it agrees with Christ

A very nice program indeed, it has both Hebrew Interlinear and Greek Interlinear of the Bible.

How would you recognize if you were suffering from delusion? Serious question.

Because you are to seek the truth. And if you honestly do, you will find it. But even if you don't someone, like me, will tell you. Believe it or not!
HalleluYah !!! Praise the LORD! Glory be to God! Holy! Holy! Holy!
