Masturbating? Please don't include me in your weird fantasies.......Crap! You have a PhD in projection!! Now that's impressive.Again you self justify and attempt to place yourself on a pedestal, a very shaky one. Real academics don't self justify their bias in a honest exchange of ideas, thanks for confirming your non academic status.You sure are big on self justification and self glorification. You want to have a rational and reasonable academic discussion then act academic not judgmental, you want to be treated as you deserve then continue to be judgmental and dismissive of others beliefs. Now do you get the point or will it take a figurative 2 x 4 to pound it in?![]()
Academics don't back off their conclusions and sugar coat them for sensitive sissies. That would be anti-intellectual. If you are too sensitive for big boy words and arguments, that's a YOU problem.
Nobody knows what the hell you are talking about. Are you done soothing yourself? Good.![]()
Done masturbating? Good. Now, since you are such a smart person armed with so many good arguments (you just don't feel like stating them, of course), then feel free to meet my argument with argument.
I will argue that the Bible is a bronze age book of fables, and you take the contrary position and argue that it is not.
who goes first? Please, professor, take it easy on me...
As for you proposed argument it's simple, since the Bible scientifically falls under the realm of the metaphysical there is no argument or evidence that is scientifically valid that either proves or disproves the veracity of said tome. Hence it is your opinion that the Bible is a bronze age book of fables so the argument is a waste of time and energy as all that can possibly be achieved is the verification that your opinion is yours.
Now do I have a problem with your opinion? Of course not, why would I, however the point I've been attempting to drive home is your approach to valid and respectful discussion is neither academically valid or respectful to some. It has the appearance of attack and destroy tactics, not an exchange of ideas. Me, I could care less but if you want to act like some so called Christians with your approach then I'll treat you the same way I treat them, with disdain.
