Or perhaps it is your Alzheimer talking. You have the age of that, don't you?
I know you must be joking, because you can't be serious.
Originally posted by FMF wolfgang59's Long-winded way of saying "You found me out - I have been talking crap" was HIS parody paraphrase of YOUR waffly, evasive reply to his question. You are misquoting him. See page 6 Thread 158740.
BUMP for Grampy Bobby.
I suppose if you don't retract your misquote of wolfgang59, it will at least make it clear that it was deliberate on your part. 🙂

If you don't retract your misquote, people will know it was deliberate. And if people know that it was a deliberate misquote, what will you have achieved?

this may have sparked an interesting debate.
Originally posted by wolfgang59 Theists: You believe in a god. How do you know he is good?
Atheists: If a god existed; what would be your criteria to ascertain the "goodness" of that deity?
To both: Even supposing a "good god" exists - why would you want to worship it?
My concept of God simply does not stretch to Him being a being/entity who has such a blatantly folk tale style attribute as demanding to be worshipped. The notion seems preposterous and prosaic. Of course, I don't think God has revealed Himself to anyone; and certainly not to me [I gave Christianity a long run for its money, but its content ~ I came to realize ~ was about people, their imaginations, their culture and their identity, and it wasn't about God]. So I have no 'revelation' to proselytize ~ and nor do the religionist theists here.
Originally posted by wolfgang59 FF: the two groups are
1. Those that believe in a deity or deities.
2. The others.
So, if I now understand it correctly...
I was wrong when I thought that by "theists" the OP meant "those who thinks like me" and by "atheists" he meant "the the other ones, even if they think they believe in christ and stuff".
You are a theist if you believe in Kala or Krishna or both, right?
The ones believing that the sun is god, they are also theists, right?
