Yes Cofty that is my point. I also clarified why I felt that.

Cofty I appreciate you pointing out your comments and beliefs. In fact I agree with them.
However where we differ, is that in my opinion on a question of faith " I know" is not a non answer. I believe it is ASSUMPTIVE to assume all questions can be answered by words.
have a nice evening.

Cofty, The reason I said in another post the opposite of love is knowledge, is because it has been evident to me that knowledge is often very unloving.
May I ask why Ucant needs to use words to state the basic tenet of his faith to you?
Why is someone saying "I know" to a question on faith, not a good enough answer for you?

In my opinion the only thing that i can be 100% certain of is " I am"
I am therefore of the opinion that whilst a Christian can't prove God exists, and neither do I believe that they can explain the trinity succinctly, this doesn't mean that God doesnt exist, and I accept as a satisfactory answer "I know"
My personal viewpoint may be different but I accept someone saying " I know" as a satisfactory answer, because I can't offer conclusive proof they are wrong.

i have been coming around these forum for quite some time now so whatever you find in here is not just related to something someone may have said this week.
it can go months back as well.. i have seen many who claim to respect the belief of others but when it comes down to applying it into practice, things take a whole different tune.
Reading some threads on this forum, I have concluded that in my opinion the opposite of love isn't hate but knowledge.

A month ago I started a thread titled " You are a lazy brained, narcissistic whining ass attention seeking whore....." Unfortunately this thread was closed within only two hours. I assume the thread was closed because of my confrontational title. But why I started the thread was to show we can all get along . It should be noted that although the thread lived less than two hours it had 29 replys with everyone giving each other thumbs up, and having a laugh. This showed despite having been in confrontation we can all get along.
My point is if we want our point of view to be respected, let's not take ourselfs or our point of view so seriously.....

Yes indeed we find some fantastic "gems" on this site "Tenacious" but I think this thread is more about possible appeard rudeness in some posters comments. A rudeness we would not tolerate in our daily life, so why should we on a debating forum?
Personally I have no problem with any poster. if I did I would report them, if it was concluded I was being over sensitive then I would simply not engage them.

Personally I think critical thinking and empirical thinking are important in any science.Truth is objective not subjective. If God is true where is the supporting evidence? The bible in this regard may be the empirical evidence. In my opinion people do not turn to God for purely intellectural evidence, but empirical evidence.
Sometimes debating and preaching can get confused. Personally I have concluded no actual evidence has ever been provided to substantiate and validate Gods existence. But that does not mean God does not exist, and in my opinion it would be nice if posters could on occasion be a little kinder to each other.
