Apologetics 301 Guidelines
If you think this is the area where you tell everyone you are sorry for eating their lunch out of the fridge, it probably isn't the place for you
This forum is open discussion between atheists and all theists to defend and debate their views on religion or non-religion. Please respect that this is a Christian-owned forum and refrain from gratuitous blasphemy. VERY wide leeway is given in range of expression and allowable behavior as compared to other areas of the forum, and moderation is not overly involved unless necessary. Please keep this in mind. Atheists who wish to interact with theists in a way that does not seek to undermine theistic faith may participate in the World Religions Department. Non-debate question and answers and mild and less confrontational discussions can take place in General Theistics.

But I'm sure after you get done Googling it you'll soon be lecturing me on it while declaring I must be unfamiliar with it. Kind of like what you did with MM when he brought up high context cultures.

It is so incredibly childish for people who don't believe in God to refuse to refer to Him by the pronoun by which He has been known for millennia.
It shows what a petty person you really are.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

And with that, you have nullified the problem of evil argument.
