Why don't you monomaniacal christians just shut up on this topic? Really.

I'll cease when I get a satisfactory answer from you

How about this:

I concede that it is not impossible(1) that the christian god as described
by brand X (choose your favorite brand, there are many choices) exists. With
the implication, of course, that brands Y, Z, A, B, C, D, etc. all have it

bring up religion in a thread that didn't start it.

Deal?

2 - this is no more, or less, than I ever said, so you haven't gained
anything NEW but perhaps if I remind you of my position you will stop
hijacking threads.
