You say I am insulting. Perhaps that is true. I think not.
But you must understand how insulting you are when I ask simple questions and you either pretend not to see them, such as this one:

Again, that's not what Christianity teaches at all. It teaches that there are consequences for our actions, not just in the next life but in this one.
[quote] What are those consequences, Nash?
or you simply change the subject when I state an obvious discrepancy sich as just a couple of posts up where I clearly listed a bible quote where Jesus told his people to bring disbelievers to him to be killed. You didn't even take an apologists stance (there are plenty of refutations to this - some worthy and some not). No, you take the easy way out, refuse to advance the debate and instead cry "Insult! Insult!" when I called you on it.
Yes, I put a label on you that everyone else can see but that you refuse to acknowledge; fundamentalist. Recovering fundamentalist, yes, but still a fundamentalist.
I'm glad you acknowledge that as a negative trait. Most fundies embrace it.
I am after an honest exchange of ideas. You are anything but honest. You give Hillary-ish answers to tough questions. You hide behind the robes of Jesus and hurl thinly veiled threats about my eternal soul then deny that ever did so.
Its damm frustrating.
In an gentlemanly, intellectual debate, ideas are exchanged, Points are conceded. You, sir, have demonstrated an unwillingness to concede points. You leave me with only ridicule.
If you can't stand the fire, stay out of the heat.
