It is. I forgive. Howevr, i still havent heard your thoughts on the use of Him/He etc,,,,care to share?
Can't see Christians dropping "he" anytime soon. The cost of removing the beards from stained glassed windows would in itself be prohibitive.
Hindu's already have female and male dieties, as do Pagans. Buddhists I am not sure about - but I doubt it is a major issue for them and Muslims would, I'm guessing, be in the "don't go there" territory although I think the Sufis have a concept of the feminine Divine.
It would not be required in a place not far from your abode.:lol:Quote:

Sorry for the lack of clarity.

Like most atheists HardCaseOwnsYou is an atheist because the dedication to strict logical accuracy required to be agnostic is too great. Atheists claim knowledge of something unknowable in the same way christians and muslims claim knowledge of something unknowable. And similarly, like christians and muslims. Atheists cannot read between the lines of religious texts, and must take everything literally and not see its inherent esoteric nature. This proves they are in fact retards.

Define "picking a fight" on a discussion forum.
By definition debate on any given topic would require opposing views. Sure religion and politics are hot topics that will more often than not bring "hotter posts" but why does it have to be defined as "picking a fight"
Are those of christian faith that post threads designed to be critical of islam picking a fight or are they just trying to convey their opinion.
Are the evangelicals that come to my house wishing to "convert me" picking a fight? (I bet if I was to knock on many of their doors and try to convince them god doesn't exist I would not be received warmly)
Good post.:)Quote:

What they thought of me, I don't want to know.
No I can't agree. You are sitting in your garden counting the arrows coming over the wall. I use them to hold up the runner beans.:)Quote:
