    There's always a context, that's the point. It can't really be apathy either, for you've already posted.
    No. Don't group all contexts to fall into "left side" and "right side". Maybe that's because of your inability to "not take sides". Just because you can't think so, don't think others can't.

    In this context, I can take sides (opinion about my reasoning better than what you have come to reason with about "taking sides"), because my reasoning tells me, doing so makes more sense. Just because I "took side" here doesn't mean I am gonna "take side" on every other context.

    Government speak? You should be working for the local government. You would be worth a fortune to them.

    Me personally? I just take sides according to the evidence available.

    Yea right. As we all know, there are lots of concrete evidence to support either case in this scenario. Which side are you on again?

    I don't see any concrete evidence to support the existence of a God. Before anyone goes on about the Bible remember that all 'evidence' against religion was burnt, including humans who disagreed.

    ...but only sinners (who were doomed to an eternity of Hellfire, anyway) were burned. Think of it as, "starting their futures early". Who doesn't appreciate a bit of help in getting started. As for the other stuff... do we really need mis-guided individuals spreading incorrect info (and even damnable lies)? I think not. Just look at the internets and all the crap that gets posted.

    So, really, a few hell-bent miscreants were expelled early, and their misinformation was disposed of properly. And that was hundreds of years ago. Move on, please. Geesh.

    I don't know if posting bullshit or managing to post the virtual equivalent of nothing is worse. But it feels like the thread is dying. Don't know if it was because of your theological bias or you just want to troll this thread, but thanks anyways. If you plan to post something interesting and/or meaningful, I'll pay it some mind; otherwise I think the misinformation has been addressed (not like it matters).

    I don't see what would have stopped all those victims from getting saved at a later time in life. It sounds like those religious nuts ran things like american health insurance policies. Convert to christianity now... sorry, we do not cover pre-existing conditions.

    Also: Sorry, you didn't join during our enrollment period.

    Lets all agree with mjmacky, and philosophically establish the non-existence of God without any proof of it because;
