Yup Colonel, elsewhere may be more appropriate, but you might thank him for making you think twice about who you might be squaded up with at the clays range, or lean back on a tail gate with at the end of a long days hunt.

And then suddenly, consciousness just popped into the brain?

I wouldn't say suddenly, more like a slow realization.

Its been over 25 years since I last read either book in full.

Maybe so, but one truth, that is self-evident and endowed by your creator, is that you have the right to advertise your goal to ruin others rights. Thank you for politely and calmly explaining the foolishness of kidding oneself about finding common ground with someone like you on all not some of the hurdles the US faces.


Thats some audible BS there thrifty. You are not interested in finding any common ground with anybody who doesn't share your ideology.

Whereas, no other creature ever gained this "slow realization" over the same period?

If you're bent on making fun of words, maybe you're too dumb to benefit from the protections afforded by judeo-christian based laws. Just imagine, if you believe what you intolerantly joke about, you'd be forced to wear a burka and you wouldn't get that tingle up your leg from it any more.


As per usual thrifty, your jabs just miss. I am very thankful I live in a society drawn from western civilization. I don't suffer a tyranny from either government or religion too well.

No other creature expanded and grew their brains by cooking their food. Humans were the only ones to do that.

If you've actually read the accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, which each wrote their individual accounts of what they witnessed, in places and times far separated from one another, what of their accounts would you relegate to "f a i r y tales", or maybe a more appropriate term to your way of thinking, lies? But you already said you think it's bunk, so never mind.

As a guy who tried to go to seminary, I doubt I would be bothered by someone of faith, or by someone without it

When hunting and shooting and look for a common love of the game and decent ethics, cant say I have ever done a faith check in the field

If you want to explain what website is focused on your religious views go for it, few will follow you there.

Like so many who shallowly reason they fail to account for what they cant explain

I am still clinging to my bible and my guns


Relax Colonel. I was content leaving it at my slight against homelessAsshole. John wanted to engage and still does apparently.

That's decent of you and a good outlook. I'm happy to leave it at that.
