  • I Ilion

    You people are so intentionally and willfully ignorant. It's kind of cute, sometimes.

    I tend to think the same about religious zealots.

        Tony Woodlief ('Sand in the Gears' blog): Knowing God[^]

        ... Pondering the nature of God is essential, but it should be done with fear and trembling. ... God is love. God is a father, and a son, and a whispering ghost. God struck down nearly all of humanity in a killing flood. God nursed at the breast of a woman who freely chose to be grieved. God wept for the dead. God climbed unto a cross for his children. God is a consuming fire who will come again in power and glory and majesty. Who then can know God by mind alone? Who will stand before him on that day and declare: This is why you have done these things, Lord, for these reasons that I have explained in my books and sermons? Who claims to discern the entire essence of God? Who sees him more than in a mirror darkly? Intellectualize him at your peril.

        If you have the time (make it! ;) ), check out Woodlief's blog in general[^].

        I believe it was Zach De Larocha who said Fear is your only God!

              Good Lord Iliot, you don't even understand the insults you throw around... :sigh: 'Ignorance' is not being aware of information. Intentional misunderstanding is 'stupid'. You can't be intentionally ignorant, as soon as you are aware of information that you intend to ignore you instantly graduate to stupid if you decide to continue ignoring it. I know, I know, the root word of 'ignorance' can throw you, but I will help you out. Here[^] is a resource that will help you clear things up. Now that I've supplied you with this information, it's your choice whether or not you want to graduate to 'stupid' or go for the gold and aim all the way for 'understanding'. The ball is now in your court. I can only show you the door, you have to walk through it. And always remember, there is no spoon. May the force be with you.

                  Brilliant. A total waste of effor, of course, but brilliant nonetheless. One of those posts that I wish could be voted a 10.

                    Perhaps I should - I wouldn't want to deflate in any way his ginormous head.
