I've met Ilion.

Yes, I was actually there (well passed by on the way to class and stayed an hour after getting back). Brother Micah/Ilion[^] My favorite quote from the whole thing was when he said there were no prostitutes in Tuscaloosa because the sorority girls ran them out of business. Here's another link just for fun Brother Micah[^] While I'm somewhat of a lurker here this guy just reminded me so much of Ilion I had to post it. :-D

Really? Why is that? Can you even begin to explain the reasoning at work here?
Because both of you don't seem very well informed on the topics that you like to preach to others. While I try to avoid personal posts your clutters of useless links are quite annoying although the constant bickering with Oakman certainly livens the place up a bit (if you do it merely for something that Oakman can make fun of then I commend you because his posts are normally very entertaining). You do claim to be a Christian, correct? If that is the case then most of your posts don't seem to reflect that... e.g. (since I know you'll want it...) 1. You continually degrade others beliefs (and atheism) yet if you want them to come to yours then why don't you act a bit more maturely? 2. You SPAM annoying links all over the place that aren't even that informative/interesting (and many relating to reason #1). 3. Most of what you post is as Christian Graus said "a neverending stream of drivel and when people try to talk to you about it, you refuse to answer, and regard that you're taking the high moral ground when the truth is you can't defend your views, you can only spout them". 4. After reading several of your posts it reminded me of how Brother Micah just avoided any questions, shouted a Bible verse, then said everyone else was going to hell.

haha that is always the worst word to mispell imho
When I'm using this computer (which is the one I was using then), I don't take the time to double-check before posting. The reason is that this one locks up unpredictably when it's online.

An occasional misspelling or typo is acceptable, of course, but simply not having the wit or wisdom to check your words before displaying them as representative of your thinking is not only bad manner, but indicative of a disordered way of thinking.
