I've been away from the Religion Group for a while.

[MineralMan]

Have any deities shown up yet?

No?

OK, then. I guess I'm not needed here. Nothing appears to have changed.

[samnsara]

1. even Anonymous is NOWHERE to be seen! wtf?

[trotsky]

2. But you don't understand...

you NOT seeing them is just as irrational and unsupported as having seen them. I think. Is that how this works? It's so hard to keep up sometimes.

[MineralMan]

3. Well, if someone had reported encountering a deity here, then I'd feel

obligated to stick around to learn more. But, since nobody has, I think it's safe to let the conversations go on as usual, whataboutisms notwithstanding.

[Major Nikon]

8. That's exactly how it works

Furthermore if you can’t prove the decider has no proof of his invisible sky daddy then YOU are the delusional one. Checkmate atheists!

[Polly Hennessey]

4. Well, I have not seen one.

I do consider my dog a deity, however.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Maybe God is too busy advising Michele Bachmann to post on DU.

[MineralMan]

6. Don't tell Michelle, but that voice isn't God.

It's coming from inside her head. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. Someone should tell her that when she talks to God,

that's praying (irrespective of whether there's an entity who's listening), but that when God talks to her, that's psychosis.

[Major Nikon]

9. I wonder what her username is

I have an idea

[Karadeniz]

10. MinMan, MinMan...I fear you are stooping to a cheap shot!

[Major Nikon]

12. You mean like the reply just beneath yours?

The Golden Rule is alive and well here if you hadn’t noticed.

[guillaumeb]

11. True.

Nothing has changed.

[LuvNewcastle]

13. I don't know if he's been here, but he has been seen.
