Have you considered, Vlad, that some might be voting tactically as to annoy you or that they aren't taking your poll seriously?
Have you considered Gordon that you might be wishful thinking?still....... Let's hope every antitheist around here is as nice as they think themselves to be, eh?

What are you on about?

You accused Gordon of shite moderation, when he replied directly to a post of yours, and was not moderating.

Why would you indulge in such a dishonest tactic? I was thinking you might be needing a break and some time to think so I suggested that.

Take care, as I am a bit worried about you.

Just as your constant moaning should not be forced down the throats of Christians and Atheists alike.
You don't challenge anything or anyone.
a) you haven't the knowledge to challenge Christianity.
b) you weren't forced to join this forum.

Being a member of a forum is not the issue. Taking place in debates is not the issue.
But you take the biscuit when you have no arguments to offer in debates on this forum. Just moan and complain.

Just as you have no credible answers - of your own, not from the book of historical bollocks and bullshit - to any question put to you on this Forum. Your stock answer is "You don't know what you are talking about" followed by about 50 quotes from the aforementioned book.

I'm accusing anyone of shite moderation who let's Hillside and his claque go round referring to me as Trollboy.

In fact rather than let Hillside get me off this way,if the mds agreed with him, they've let him get away with it for some time now, they should have disciplined me for trolling!!!

Thanks for this concern I have tried to hang on but I think I shall now transfer my forum presence elsewhere thank you.

Rhi said that religion has to 'prove its claims'.  In order to prove something, one has to provide proof, which is one form of evidence.  Evidence can be false or otherwise; proof can't.

If this is the way your mind works and your thinking goes - the Goddess alone knows how you were ever allowed to teach - anywhere!

So speaks the man who never ever makes a typo! The problem is that the last man to come to Earth who was perfect got nailed to a cross - mind out that you don't end up with the same fate - TROLLBOY! Happy now!

Maybe we will see how many typo's you make when you are 70 and diabetes is wrecking your eyesight.

Te only tging that he is likely to break is a leg tripping over his ego and/or any stray -isms that lie in his path!

Oh Hell! I think that, like the Trollboy, I'll take a break - from reading his posts.

Sorry, as i've mentioned many times, and just reiterated in my last post to Rhi, there have been a number of articles written - for instance, in the medical area - that have provided evidence of the sort you want but have been rejected because they go beyond the purely scientific.

Just out of interest, if not for the methods of science what methods did these alleged papers use instead to distinguish their claims from total bollocks?

As you may be aware that you, Trollboy and the other theists here who claim their god as an objective truth for the rest of us too always vanish when asked what method you/they would use for this purpose you'll understand that some of us have more than a passing interest in finally getting an answer to that question.

The same can be asked of moral relativity and yet you continually polish that.

Two posters have registered on the poll that religion should not have a public forum.
I havent failed in the respect you state since I included such a category in the poll. Hardly failing in noticing.

Hillside however is interested in personal abuse, and putting thoughts and words which aren't mine. Still, no doubt that kind of thing appeals to his fans and his penchant for silly mindgames.

Again a slack application of moderation allows him and his claque to go around and do this sort of thing

In which Trollboy who so far as anyone can remember has almost never managed not to lie about what his interlocutors have said and then thrown evasion, abuse or further mendacity at the straw men he's constructed accuses other people of "personal abuse" and "putting thoughts and words which weren't mine" even though there's been no such abuse directed him and no such false representation of his position forgets that he's forgotten to include a category for for the type of public fora religions enjoyed already thanks to the protections and freedoms offered by our secular system, namely: "Buildings, signage, open spaces, door-to-door-representation, charitable status, special schools in which they're allowed to teach faith beliefs as if they were facts, guaranteed access to the legislature, privileged access to media outlets whenever matters of moral import are discussed, and "Thought for the Day"."

In which Trollboy not only attempts a diversionary tactic in the hope that no-one notices his avoidance of the question about his absence of a method to distinguish his religious claims from nonsense but does so by resurrecting his already failed attempt at a false dilemma fallacy.
