And you can? His "rantings" make much more sense than yours do. His self-contradictions are to extensive to start with, to represent the position he has chosen Its illogical and irrational. Simply put its mental fence riding Dawn Bertot

xongsmith writes: Can arachnophilia make even a little lightbulb go off in Dawn's head? Place your bets, ladies & gentlemen. No. Already Dawn is resorting to personal attacks due to an inability to refute his arguments. In the philosophical dictionary entry for bad faith, it says Dawn Bertot.

True--but the most you've done is note that he doesn't seem to have read the Bible.
But you haven't offered personal criticism in the complete absence of critical thought about the text. I appreciate your spirit of fairness, though. Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale? -Shakespeare Real things always push back.-William James

I appreciate your spirit of fairness, though. yes, well, i'm going to try to not get banned for 3 years because of it. Edited by arachnophilia, : WHOOPS!

...and now, in Message 426, Dawn is reduced to running around with his fingers jammed into his ears, yelling "La la la la la, I cannot hear you."
It's really sad that such a broken brain has reached this far... It's as if Dawn's "World of Logic" is something like: GOD is all-powerful and all-knowing.Therefore everything GOD says is TRUE. EVERYTHING in Dawn's Bible was written by GOD through the admittedly imperfect instruments of the various prophets through the ages. But it was essentially written by GOD in every word and therefore everything in Dawn's Bible is TRUE. Isaiah's OT story of the Assyrian future is TRUE as is Matthew's NT distortion of it. They are BOTH TRUE. 2 is less than 3 and 3 is less than 2. If it seems to be contradictory, it is only because human beings are imperfect at understanding the Word of GOD. This is what Logic to Dawn must mean. Consider the little bit about "Logos (Logic)". arachnophilia kindly makes a correction, "Word". In Dawn's little tiny misshapen world, they are the same thing. Logic == the Word of GOD, because "the Word is GOD", if I can paraphrase Charlton Heston. When confronted with an argument that the statement "3 is less than 2" is False, in Dawn's mind this is an ignorant thing to say. It goes against Logic. There is no evidence that that statement is False because Dawn's Bible does not says it's False anywhere. If it's in Dawn's Bible, it is the Word of God and therefore it is TRUE.If it's not in Dawn's Bible, then it is not the Word of God and therefore it is FALSE. La la la la la indeed. - xongsmith, 5.7d

Evidently the Bible is missing a book "The book of Dawn"

looks like dwise1 is up next, and on a topic more directly appropriate to the thread. i'm enjoying his posts; this should be good.

arachnophilia in Message 562, responding to Dawn, makes another funny satire of Dawn's writing abilities:
Dawn writes: now should and can see what is actually written about that? Of course I can you've got to be kidding me. i've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? my guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. it's just common sense. - xongsmith, 5.7d

glad someone caught it! i also posted the original statement in Message 554 but i suspect that one was too easy to miss, and not repetitive enough to catch anyone's attention. and it's not like dawn reads my posts anyways.
i've just decided that instead of trying to decipher nonsense, i'll just respond in kind. i wish i could take credit for this particular nonsense, but i can't. blame anon.

If you place it so that it can't be avoided, then DB will reply to it - as if it is not nonsense. and it's not like dawn reads my posts anyways. DB: Why do you think that Jesus said that?A: Because he is the son of God. All he says is when goodness backs with The Bible, there cannot be doubt. Soon all messages give salvation under the wings of God and to the left and right. Forgiveness is not when there is. Maybe because the chosen itself. I think he finds evangelical words to be comforting - even if they are in a random order.Use them and he'll reply in a friendly manner. Edited by Panda, : No reason given.
