You may not realize this, but you're only making it worse. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

When you have to go to extraordinary lengths to prove a point, like the padre does, perhaps you don't have one. An atheist says there is no god, and gets on with his day, thinking of more interesting things. Religious people always seem to have to prove something and are in a constant muddle. Am I letting god down, is god letting me down, am I sure there even is a god. There must be, look at all the believers. They can't all be wrong. Oh yeah? They're saying the same thing looking at you. It must be true, that guy believes. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

That's why we end up bringing up unicorns or spaghetti monsters. The standards of evidence we are asked to endorse easily could verify a whole lot of things. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

What evidence are you waiting for? Seriously, I am wondering what would it take, beyond what we have mentioned in this thread, for you to recognize something as pointing to the possibility of a creator God? “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Once again, these lyrics are apropos: Why'd you choose such a backwards time and such a strange land? |

I do. I didn't think it was funny. I stated one reason why it's not funny. Seriously, and I apologize if I'm making you uncomfortable, Christianity has too much of a stranglehold on morality and ethics in Western civilization. That's the really big problem. Even now, when Christianity has been tamed enough, it's still too big an impediment to many of us in living our lives. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

I'm not uncomfortable but it appears you cannot even sit by as I good-naturedly take a jab at the padre. It was not meant for you and, if I know the padre at all, he took no umbrage with the fact I was making a joke |
