yeah, it's pointless. nobody will win religious arguments cuz the Christians will post Bible stuff, and the athiests will post athiest stuff. everyone has an agenda.

They also jsut argue the points they have good counters for, and ignore the really damning evidence.
Yeah and is it just me or are you, and vt, the only ones who really base your opinions on fully formed facts. I feel that Kyle have somehow gotten drawn into believing that Democrats are the only good people in the world or something like that and well, I don't even have to explain Jay.

the overall irony of it? The moderates, people who are undecided, dont' even participate, because they ahve nothing to offer, so we can't even convert the people who we MIGHT be able ot convert.

Meh, I participate and I am more or less neutral. Technically I am called a liberal here in georgia but that's because Georgia is very, VERY conservative (though I shouldn't have to tell you that).

i'm really dissapointed at how liberal has been demonised in many of those states. Liberal is what keeps the remaining shreds of our ozone layer intact, and keeps us from hanging witches. When the conservatives gained power they didn't jsut beat liberals, they practically ran smear campaigns on anything that wasn't conservative, labeling it as extreme and untrustworthy when conservatives themselves are more right wing radical than the rest of the world.

well, technically it's the Liberals running the smear campaigns in Georgia. Really I don't like either party. and there really is a rift that is getting obvious to all of us "moderates" that is really what is endangering the well-being of this country more than either party could on their own. Also, can you elaborate on that last sentence a little more? I get your main point but I want to make sure I understand fully.

see, i believe in God, but im willing to accept that many don't and that's their views, and they have a right to those views
here's what i think...not that it really matters, but hey, it makes me feel special...everyone should be able to believe in the religion that fits their lifestyle...and if god is truly loving and understanding, he or she will understand that they are worshipping the way they are most comfortable with, or not worshipping (in the case of atheists)...
