Truth! And that goes for all of us. Some things are not evident at first.

The Evidence Is You

If I am, in fact, the evidence then it is time to make a video, though you likely can't watch it at that library. I'm better at speaking than I am at writing, however.

Do you think that the answers already exist and are simply waiting to be "discovered" by humanity or do you believe that as we learn we ourselves create the answers through critical thinking? Your answer will further explain your world view.

As I just said in another thread a minute ago, there are no magical "answers" floating around out there waiting to be discovered. Answers are the result of questions and questions are the result of human thinking. (It doesn't have to be critical thinking. Critical thinking is just more likely to come up with better questions.) | Phat writes: Your answer will further explain your world view. |
You should stop trying to tie my worldview (or anybody else's) up in a neat little package.

Re: Moderator Inquiry
All that Im doing is showing that your line of reasoning limits what Jesus actually told the Disciples about His character and reframes the reality as limiting Jesus to a character in a book and irrelevant when it suits you yet you have the audacity to charge me with ignoring what a character in a book says when it suits your argument. Stop calling bullshit on what is patently obvious. Surely your brain and the brain of so many others reframes the whole concept of religion and belief within the power of humans to change and redefine at whim. You call my belief BS simply because you wont consider it. And yet you claim that I ignore what He said to do....if only you could see what we were doing last night....you would take back your claim.

I'm the one who upholds what Jesus said and you're the one who denies it. Remember? | Phat writes: ... and reframes the reality as limiting Jesus to a character in a book... |
Reality does limit Him to a character in a book. He has no other solid link to reality. | Phat writes: ... and irrelevant when it suits you... |
You're the one who cherry-picks from the Book when it suits you and scoffs at it when it doesn't. | Phat writes: ... yet you have the audacity to charge me with ignoring what a character in a book says when it suits your argument. |
I charge you with ignoring what's in the Book when you ignore what's in the Book. How can what suits me effect what you ignore? | Phat writes: Stop calling bullshit on what is patently obvious. |
Stop lying. I called bullshit on your claim that Christians are attacked more than any other religion. That is neither obvious nor even founded in fact. | Phat writes: You call my belief BS simply because you wont consider it. |
For fuck's sake, I HAVE considered it, as I have told you many times. I used to be where you are. By all appearances, I have considered it more carefully than you have. | Phat writes: And yet you claim that I ignore what He said to do....if only you could see what we were doing last night....you would take back your claim. |
Whatever you were doing last night has nothing to do with the fact that you deny what Jesus said.

John of Patmos said that. I have never heard a deity say that. Have you? I'm not that impressed by people who write things down in books and claim to be speaking for a deity. How about you?

There are several articles online by different researchers that support my claim.
The Most Persecuted Religion in the World by Kelly James Clark, a Senior Research Fellow at the Kaufman Institute, Grand Valley State University.
What evidence do you have that suggests otherwise?
