Donkey reminds me of Kenpodragon. They not only write the same, they even express some of the same beliefs. Curious.

If you think atheists are not out to proselytize, think again.

SS,
Why we can't be both spirit and physical beings is that the reality is there is no such thing as physical life. The thing that animates all life on earth is spirit. Our bodies is merely the vehicle for tansporting us through the earth experience. When a man physically dies his body returns to the dust of the ground and his spirit (soul) returns to God who gave it). Animals likewise have souls that is their real selves that go to heaven when they die. Watch John Edwards sometime on "Crossing Over". He will convince you this is true.
People are not the cars the drive. A man is not his body.

there is no such thing as physical life.
Are living trees, flowers, and grass not physical?
Matter is a form of organised energy (standing wave forms, strings, or whatever). When matter is turned to energy, such as in a clean fission/fusion reaction, is the resulting energy life or spirit, or is it something else?
Doesn't the dna passed to you by your parents affect you? Doesn't hunger affect you? Can you resist taking a dump or peeing? Don't hormones affect you (you masterbate, right)? In the spirit world none of these needs will be with you anymore.

donkey,
: Give me the storm and stress of thought
A much more impressive way of saying this is to use Beethoven's words: "sturm und drung" If you talk in another language people will think you are smart because they are clueless about what you are saying and assume you must know something since you quoted some German expression. It might keep the idiots from responding. Nah! NOTHING keeps the idiots from responding!
Oh, nevermind!

Farkel,
In a perfect world everyone would be as intelligent as you.
Just wondering, does calling someone an idiot make you feel more intelligent?

Yes, it's time to play:
The new craze that's sweeping the nation!
"Most people are religious, so assume it is true."
Being a martyr Argument by cut'n'pasting huge reams of dense text. "You're scared of God, and want science to rescue you." "God is the cause of existence; things exist; therefore God exists." (and other Circular Arguments)
"You just don't understand it / too blind to see"
Hypocrisy (or self-contradiction) "I have proved God exists - end of debate." "Everybody believes in something." or "You're not really an atheist." "Everything must have a cause - except my God" (and other Special Pleading)
Threats of damnation. God of the Gaps fallacy ( science can't explain it, therefore God must have done it ) Equates 'disagreement' with 'bitter atheist hatred' "All these scientists were Christians - do you think you're smarter than them?" "You're too arrogant to admit you're wrong" Repeat argument until it magically becomes true. Argumentum ad Theoblatero (meaningless theobabble)
"The burden of proof is on the skeptic" "All Xians are good; bad people are not Xian; so Xians are all good." (No True Scotsman fallacy) "I know because I know" (Argumentum ad absens scientia :
Argument from absent knowledge)Print it off and keep it handy whenever you read or participate in an online-debate with a fundy. Cross off the fallacies, dodgy reasoning and personal attacks as they appear. Score one point for each box crossed out, and ten points if you make a line of four vertically or horizontally.
Don't say "Bingo!"
Say Fundingo!
