Yup. The Rick Copeland knew some people would figure it out. But don't tell him you don't see it comming... During Reggie's show you used to see it all the time in the chat rooms. You still see it here from time to time... _________________ “I think it’s also important for the President to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn.”

Very good response by romans I thought. But to comment on the last paragraph in your response: Atheism has no ideology. And since faith is "Belief with no evidence" Atheists can't have "faith" because they have no belief to begin with. _________________ "Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, underwhich weak minds are servilely crouched.

romans,
Ebonmuse is one of my favorite bloggers and atheist writers. I just came upon a new blog post of his called "The Scars of Evolution". Good read.

I reject the notion that when it comes to beginnings you can make a negative claim without also making a positive claim (belief) see kevinthepragmatist response to my OP in http://www.infidelguy.com/ftopict-635.html for agreement with that notion from the atheist perscpective _________________ The Resident Theist

but you can have faith that nature contains the means of it's own existence.

I for one dont go around believing that no gods exists. I just dont believe in the claims religious people make about the existance of gods.
So I am without belief in god(s). So as long as I am not confronted about the issue I dont think about it much at all. Thus I agree with what Raskolnikov said.
Tho when you Dagget say you believe that no gods exists, I dont think you are wrong, I just dont know  |

thanks for the compliment
I wished I did do that one over here (i might still) I noticed they had some brainiacs (bob spence for example) that only rarely come over here so I tried to get them riled up. It took like 3 weeks to get something going though that would take just a take couple hours here. I don't even remember what I was thinking if it takes more than a day _________________ The Resident Theist
