So am I. So what is your point about this God you believe in?
I don't have a point. I am not selling anything. If anything, I am defending my right to believe what I want, to those who vehemently protest my right to choose what I believe. No-one, least of all me has ever said that. Look back to the beginning of the thread to our conversations for proof. It was just when you changed tack going beyond your personal belief that things got sticky and then you got all in denial.

As a matter of fact, I have been lauding your seemingly superior intelligence, maturity, and civility compared to Toasted Cheese. I criticized your hysterically insane jump to erroneous conclusions. I never said you protested my right to choose my beliefs for myself.

So you can't defend your belief then. Thought as much. If you can't sell it, don't expect others to buy into it, if you choose to discuss it online.  I can defend my belief. I have been doing that. But I already told you I an not selling anything. So why are you not doing that great a job of it?
You are not able to sell it, because you can't, otherwise there would be believers everywhere giving you credence and credibility.

… and you just swear and shout a lot and say shit! When I quote others such as phludowin it is to credit them with having said something well phrased that I happen to agree with, as do most of those with an intellectual and philosophical understanding of such matters . Here's an idea... Maybe if you link him just oooooonnnnneeee just more time...  - "RAWRK!! SAVE ME, PHLUDOWIN!! SAVE ME!! RAWRK!!"

No, you are not perfect. But who is? Something you have been unable to do. I guess one needs intelligence to do as such.

And yours is.... Yes, because I know both beliefs are possible. You and goz talk like you don't. Of course any belief is possible, that is not the point. It is the notion behind the belief itself and how practical and valid it actually is. No belief is real, especially one you can't possibly prove, and even if it seems real for the beholder it isn't really, because it is just thought. Take away the stringing of words in your head forming the belief and then what is there?

While such a rationale might lead someone to profess belief in God and act like he believes in God, it's not an argument for the actual existence of God. So it does nothing to bring anyone to genuine belief. I have never argued that God exist. And nobody should because there is no proof. In other words, there may be no God. That rationale is to why someone should believe. Not that there is a God. There is no proof of extraterrestrial life, but a fair argument can be made for its existence. And those who believe it exists should certainly argue their case (even as they recognize that there may be no such life). And those who believe in God, and think they have a fair argument for God's existence, should likewise make their case (even recognizing there may be no God). But this "cost/benefit rationale" is no argument why someone should believe. It can only make someone wish that a good argument for why they should believe existed (so that they may be persuaded, and thus reap the benefit).

No more than you have trolled everyone else with your responses. Why bother to respond to me then, if you are not trolling me?
I have given you plenty of opportunity to explain your belief with logic and reason, but you can't. You don't even understand it yourself.

Jesus Christ.. You're a fucking retard. AT NO POINT IS HE TRYING TO JUSTIFY HIS BELIEFS TO YOU... HE'S JUST ARGUING THAT YOUR DEFIANCE OF HIS BELIEFS DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY MAKE HIS BELIEFS WRONG... HE'S NOT EVEN SAYING THAT HIS BELEIFS CAN'T BE WRONG... SOMETHING THAT HE'S SAID SEVERAL TIMES BY THIS POINT.... IT'S JUST THAT YOUR DEMANDING THAT THEY ARE DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY MAKE YOU RIGHT... AND JUST MAKES YOU AN ASSHOLE. HOW MANY TIMES DOES HE HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS TO YOU, YOU DUMB... FUCKING... RETARD?

There is a good argument; "It will cost you nothing to believe in God. But it could cost you everything not to."Sounds like an easy decision to me.
