yesterday evening my wife and i were invited to friends house for new year's eve.
we met them when i was a christian and we have kept in touch.
they had a few other friends there as well, including the new church pastor and his wife.
@flamegrilled
the fact remains that we CAN conceive of a circumstance whereby it seems irrational to reconcile the loving nature of a higher being from the viewpoint of a being that has more limited ability to assess the true facts .
please run that by me again with an example, assuming we both agree on the standard definition of a fact ie. that which can be demonstrably proven to be an accurate reflection of reality

@rip van winkle - take a nap :-)
pretty funny though - the streetsweeper dude is a pretty low reactor - he has seen some sh*t I guess..
this is taken from the bbc's sunday morning show 'the big questions'.
i was going to pick out a few highlights but really, you need to watch the whole thing - it's only 23 minutes.
seriously, i could feel the bile and frustration rising in my gullet .
"aposticated" - new word

Oh really, so you beleive in God now???????????????
this is just facile Kate - it makes debating with you tedious.
cofty lacks belief in any definition of god - to qualify all of his own comments with that would make for tiresome repetition.
in the uk, there was a popular t.v.
show called the only way is essex - a documentary type programme about that area which is close to london.
the programme's name got abbreviated to its initials - towie, and that is how it is now named.. since the org's uk branch is moving to essex, perhaps the uk version of the magazine will be renamed, the watchtowie..
towie is alright as long as you understand your own reasons for watching it...

@kate - ok - 1st believer has declined the challenge. No I don;t view you all as crazies - pls stop speculating on what I think - it doesn;t add anything to your position.
I don't think cofty would have an issue with a lucid rebuttal. Its the pages of preaching that are obfuscatory.

excellent summary of both sides cofty
I'd like to see a lucid believer take your summary and do a point by point rebuttal.
