Then you have very suspect logic. 'Anything is possible'? Is it possible for me to wake up tomorrow morning only to discover I'm Ant from Ant and Dec? Is it possible for my car to drive at 13,000 miles an hour?
What guff you talk!

You think that 'logic' is absurd and 'contradicting'? Contradicting what exactly? And do you even know what 'logic' means? It's not a 'thing' in itself you know....

??? 'equally significant as it is insignificant'?? Have you been sniffing glue, or do all your 'points' lack anything that makes sense?

errrrr.....have you even *read* this thread? Pointing out a list of contractions made up a VERY small part of my argument. As for not seeing the difference between myself and Bush. Hmmm, well, for one, I'M not in charge of the only superpower on the planet (and it's vast nuclear arsenal) whilst believing in the 'coming apocalypse' because a book written 2000 years ago says it's going to happen.

Power? In what way? I know about it because I was brought up with it, and now I find it's useful to be able to understand where the nonsense comes from when some 'believer' starts thumping their Bible in my direction. I believe the phrase is 'know your enemy'.

All in all I think that is one of the most meaningless posts I've ever read.
