Doesn't really narrow it down
I think He did it best when he said; "I am."
​
Yeah, but so am I.

Re: taxonomy
As resistent to learning geology as Faith is, trying to teach her taxonomy has got to be worse.
​
Or, for that matter, the mathematics behind tree data structures.

The witness reports were written down by Moses who lived through it all.
​
What? Oh, come on. Not even children believe this. I mean, did you miss the part where Moses dies at the end? How did he write that part?
​
And who writes eyewitness testimony in the third person? Crazy people, maybe?
​
That's God's plan -- we are to walk "by faith and not by sight."
​
Which is just what you would tell people if you wanted them to believe something they could easily disprove by observation. When you realize that the Bible contains all manner of these pre-emptive assaults against the rational means people use to ascertain truth in their everyday lives, you begin to see exactly how you've been brainwashed.
​
it doesn't matter, none of it makes a dent, they go right on with their self-congratulatory scoffing, never taking a step back to wonder.
​
Oh, there's plenty of wonder around here. Most of us are wondering why you can't see the simple ridiculousness of most of what you bring before us.
​
Hey, you are free to believe whatever you like, but all of you here are going to have to answer to God for anything you say that causes doubt in some of the very shaky believers that visit here.
​
Oh, threats, eh? Very mature.
