We are truly spirit brothers, you and I. The bah bull says it, I buhleev it, that settles it!”<BR/><BR/>Dear Atheist in Burqa drag,<BR/><BR/>Since you’re not the brightest bulb in the socket, let me explain it to you. In this post I’m discussing an intramural debate between different professedly Christian positions. Adherents to all three traditions accept the Bible as some sort of authority. Therefore, my analysis takes that starting point for granted.<BR/><BR/>Likewise, when Darwinians get into intramural debates over the sociobiology or the evolutionary mechanism(s), they take the truth of evolutionary biology for granted. <BR/><BR/>For someone who flaunts the intellectual superiority of atheism over Christian faith, your performance evinces a conspicuous lack of rational competence. <BR/><BR/>In addition, it’s not as if I’ve never made a case for the Bible. Just not in this post. And it’s not as if I’ve never made a case against the Koran. Just not in this post.<BR/><BR/>Next time you wish to demonstrate the blinding brilliance of infidelity, you might try to muster a higher IQ than a popsicle.stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-59568232537388422892008-02-07T13:22:00.000-05:002008-02-07T13:22:00.000-05:00This is a good post.This is a good post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-33102319859502944032008-02-07T12:13:00.000-05:002008-02-07T12:13:00.000-05:00I'm so glad the atheists always respond with such ...I'm so glad the atheists always respond with such relevant comments.
