How the **** did Jesus find guys named, Peter, John, James, Mathew, Andrew Philip, Thomas, and Simon in the middle east?


That is a complex question. Why not ask such a complex question to someone like Izzy or Spades who think that they may have a good answer? Question Question Question Question

Speaking of arrogance, you don't get to choose whom I refer to. I do.

Again, I never claimed that hypocrisy was the exclusive domain of theists. My statement wasn't intended to be comparative. Just pointing out that it is prevalent among the religious. In my experience, it seems to be more prevalent among them for the simple reason that they espouse loftier ideals than non-theists.


There certainly is more than enough hypocrisy among theists to be considered prevalent. But it is my experience that hypocrisy is prevalent among humans...which include both theist and non-theists.

That is why I said that I agree more with:

I clearly stated that hypocrisy is widespread throughout humanity, not monopolized by theists. But that doesn't excuse the theist manifestations, does it? It simply illuminates them.


No insult intended…and in no way was I attempting to excuse manifestations of hypocrisy in theists.

I meant no more than what I said.

I never said that I did...

If you express a personal opinion that you have...then you do not get to dictate whether one can freely agree with that or freely does not agree with that...Unless whatever opinion you are expressing is not how you actually feel...Incorrect, misleading, untruthful, deceptive etc...

If it is completely truthful and genuine and there is no deception or head games going on...

Why would it matter who agrees or does not?

But you do understand why you think others are sociopathic? Correct?

I do have something to share...Thank you for asking me...Very Happy...I am more interested if you would like to answer my questions, rather than giving me a question as an answer to mine...

What do you think about both questions?

@FBM,
I thought we already discussed this? Now, you have no problem explaining it a second time...nice, neatly, and simple for everyone else? How come?

If you are not a theist, or a Christian, then you do not get to decide whether or not someone else thinks that they are...Whether you think you have this privilege or not based upon what you do believe and think, or based upon whatever you do not believe and reject...

@XXSpadeMasterXX,
You decide whether or not you're a Christian; I decide whether or not I'm referring to Christians or which Christians I'm referring to.

Sounds cool to me...only you know what you are thinking...and know if your intentions are meant for "Christians" or not meant for "Christians"

Quote:
or which Christians I'm referring to.

I am not sure what you mean? Is there other kinds of Christians other than believing Jesus Christ is the Lord and savior? Or do you mean personal denominations of Christianity itself or something?

I think you got it mate...Wink...Very Happy...If that personally makes a large scale difference to you...than I think that that would be important to you to who you are actually talking about when you personally say "Christians"...but since I do not see things the ways that you do...that is just my perspective...of what I think your may mean...
