Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

He needs to make up his mind.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostI never said that it should be one way. I'm simply countering Tass' notion that "submission" can only happen in the form of groveling subservience. A wife who asks her husband, "Is it OK if I buy a new laptop?" is showing submission. A husband who says, "Certainly. Let's work out a budget to make it happen," is showing love and respect."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."
