  Re: Heads up, atheists
 
(...) <<chuckle>> I have been away for a while. So I kinda walked into this one on the strength of the subject. Silly me. Can't imagine why atheists would care whether there was some bloke called Jesus padding about 2,000 years ago. Must remember to (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Sorry to disappoint. The subject line was a kind of joke-- it was (URL) recycled> for comedic effect. It was just my friendly way of tweaking some non-believing friends around here. As a Christian, I, of course, am vulnerable to the same type (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

  Re: Heads up, atheists
 
(...) Admitting he was wrong after universal outcry against him. Pat Robertson has said to many crazy things lately for me to take him seriously as a Christian. Threatening God's wrath on the people of a PA town for teaching evolution? Calling for (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

In so doing, Pat demonstrated loud and clear that "Intelligent Design" is in fact the fundamentalist Christian notion of creationism, thereby ending the argument espoused by ID-proponents that it's a "non-theistic" "scientific" (...)

  Re: Heads up, atheists
 
(...) Remember that Tootsie Pop® commercial where the "scientist" is doing the experiment to finally find out how many licks does it take to reach the center of the Tootsie Pop sucker?
