Perhaps it was a little naughty of me FMF and I apologize if it has caused so some pain or distress, one must have good reason to abandon a faith after 28 years, never the less, I still hold and will defend the teaching of the Christ as being sublime and his personal example as being the ultimate example for all kinds of people in all kinds of situations. I need to go to work.

No pain or distress was caused. I wish I found you funny, robbie, because I know you work hard at it.

You really should try this silliness on with religionists who believe that God has revealed Himself to them and told them that He has a "name" etc. etc. etc.

And i wish I found you more amiable. No not hard FMF, I am simply prepared to walk lightly on the ground.

But I don't seek to be thought of as amiable. You on the other hand seek to be thought of as funny.

no i seek to be amiable, if i wanted to be funny i would load my posts with jokes. I find you neither funny not amiable and wonder what it is that you are offering here.

Well religionist dogma only makes sense to me nowadays in terms of anthropology and psychology.

You describe yourself as "clown" over and over and over again.

yes because I am sure the example of Jesus is admirably evaluated by both anthropologists and psychologists.

That is perhaps why you seek to engage me all the time and why it seems important to you to project cliched images onto my life as I live it.

a ragged clown chasing shadows, clowns are also known as tragic figures EME, or lying somewhere between tragedy and humor. Perhaps you have never really thought of them as such?

Well I don't subscribe to the claims that Christians make about Jesus. But I think the behaviour of those who do can be looked at and understood from the vantage points of things like anthropology and psychology.

A clown who is not trying to be funny is sooner or later not employed as a clown any longer.

Its neither clinched nor important, its simply a candid fact, you are not very amiable, you have just admitted it and well quite frankly not very funny either and I really wonder what it is you have to offer here? and as for seeking to engage you, it was you who engaged me, i made a comment to PK, not to you.
