Except, of course, it is still you, a subjective being, that evaluates whether or not it is an inspired collection of books and others that evaluate it as non-inspired.

Uh, oh. You seem to be losing your firm conviction that you are always right.

Hello Pastor Vizio.

The problem here is that even if that assertion is true (and I'm sure some of our skeptical friends on this board would disagree with you) one need spend only a short while reading the Christian boards to see that there is tremendous disagreement about what it means. Works matter to salvation...or they don't; salvation, once found, is eternally assured...or it's not; and the reprobate will suffer eternally in hell, or will be utterly annihilated, or will eventually be reconciled with god, or...

Thanks.

LOL! Kind of reminds me of when Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry both claimed they were told by God to run for president.

The funny thing is that neither of them even survived until the primary vote.

It's kinda-sorta an object lesson of what I've been saying all along about religion: They can't all be right, but they CAN all be wrong. Just like Perry and Bachmann.

An atheist who believes in "The Nothing Theory". The Nothing Theory is very safe, it takes no risks at all, requires very little effort, and it is the simplest thing to believe in. I however, choose to believe that there is "Something" to our existence.
