    See now that's an oldie, but a goldie. Nuns driving cars freak me out a bit, but nuns freak me out a bit anyway, especially outside of their natural habitat. Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

    Ah, now I understand, thanks for that. Whatever he did I'm glad that he did it. The euro is doomned. I saw Micheal Portilo on the news, he gave the euro "a matter of day's or week's at the most".

    You may want to look into String Theory[^] before trying that again. And from the clouds a mighty voice spoke: "Smile and be happy, for it could come worse!" And I smiled and was happy And it came worse.

    He met her via e-mail in a reply to her crazy ass sex starved / suicidal blog posts? And he's an addiction counselor supposedly helping people? Hmm. Well he's in Ireland, so at least his business is in demand. "I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours. " — Hunter S. Thompson

You may want to go back and read it again. It was in no way a side tangent. I hope you now realize why I had to make that comment.

    Marcus Kramer wrote: And you call my statement utter nonsense. This comment is nothing more than an apologetic cop out. Which only demonstrates that you didn't read what I wrote. Since it seems so hard for you and others to separate logic from belief (what you presume of me) perhaps it would help if I made it clear. I do not believe in God. Now based on your new understanding of what my personal beliefs are perhaps you might want to look at your statement again to explain what exactly you think was "apologetic". Marcus Kramer wrote: Let's try that one out.... Believe in the bible. Why? Because the bible says I should. Why? Because the bible is the perfect word of god. Why? Because the bible says so. So I'll believe in the bible. Why? To start with you don't to seem to understand what a belief is. There is no "why" on the first statement. It is an unquestioned statement. If there is a question then it is not in fact a belief. So rephrasing your argument. 1) Believe in the bible. This is a belief. 2) Because the bible says I should. Why? Because of 1 3) Because the bible is the perfect word of god. Why? Because of 1. 4) Because the bible says so. Obviously. 5) So I'll believe in the bible. Why? Absolutely wrong. 5 is not a conclusion. It is a restatement of 1, which was already stated as belief. Affirmation of 1 is not needed because it is a belief.
