I'm beginning to think your escape is to just mock and then say something I never said. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

I accidentally went back to the first page in this thread that I started five years ago. I read the first five or six pages. I forgot there were so many people in this discussion 5 years ago. What's kind of depressing is we're still talking about exactly the same things in exactly the same way we were doing in 2015. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | I can't tell you how depressing that is and though I take some blame for falling into it, but the real blame for the lack of progress is yours. Your posts continue to say the same things even things I have told you explicitly are not what I nor my Church believe. You have shown no real remorse for the mean things you've said, never have acknowledged when you have been wrong. I can't seem to quit you because something in my gut tells me to correct such wilful ignorance and prejuidice against my faith. I guess we will keep doing this till the end of time. Lord have mercy on us and on this forum. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Yes, I place most of the blame on you also. I'm glad we finally agree on something.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

They do the same thing with Xtianity. Portray Jesus on the cross as a tall blond handsome white guy, when he was really a dark, short, unattractive Middle Eastern guy.  If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I am not sure I even get the point of my friend's post - is he trying to say dinosaurs didn't exist? |

I think he is pointing out that without evidence of many important "missing links" illustrators just often guess at what might have been. Has anyone seen the new series called, "The Chosen" about the life of Jesus. The picture Evenbob posted looks exactly like the guy they have cast for Jesus. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

What about the zero evidence that God exists? |

I mention this all the time. Buddhists and Hindu's have no personal god they prey to. Hindu's have 'gods' but they aren't divine, they are more like ideas that help point you in the right direction. So there are a few billion people who are not atheists, but they have no god either. They're spiritual. They see no evidence of a personal god, or any god. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
