Does deGrasse Tyson have behavioral issues? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #1

Please stay on topic. n/t trotsky Jan 2019 #4

Which advice I have given you many times. eom guillaumeb Jan 2019 #19

And that's why your advice is ignored. trotsky Jan 2019 #21

Your pattern here predatesmy being here. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #22

So you're saying you have no control over your own behavior. trotsky Jan 2019 #24

More misunderstanding? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #37

The point is, you are saying that you engage in your current misbehavior... trotsky Jan 2019 #41

More misunderstanding. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #42

Correction: my history with *proven disruptors*. trotsky Jan 2019 #44

Ah, the "proven disruptors" response. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #45

That's your claim. trotsky Jan 2019 #47

Yes, a claim supported by the record. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #48

A record based on your claim alone. trotsky Jan 2019 #49

No, an easily proven claim that requires only that one read what you wrote, and write. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #50

Easily proven, eh? trotsky Jan 2019 #51

Previously done. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #52

Has never been done. trotsky Jan 2019 #55

You should really reexamine the posts of those that got banned. Cuthbert Allgood Jan 2019 #53

I was called a troll today. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #54

That is false. trotsky Jan 2019 #56

Ridiculous atempt at explaining. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #57

Not at all. The word was "Christian," not "theist." MineralMan Jan 2019 #58

Another ridiculous attempt at explaining. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #60

I'll take that as a "no." MineralMan Jan 2019 #61

Take this as an example of how some do not really want dialogue in the Religion Group. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #63

Yes, it is a perfect example of how you do not really want dialog here. trotsky Jan 2019 #65

This belongs in the unintentional irony group. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #67

You are no Christian, guillaumeb. trotsky Jan 2019 #69

LOL! MineralMan Jan 2019 #73

You have judged me, and you are punishing me with "an eye for an eye." trotsky Jan 2019 #64

This belongs in the humor group. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #66

You are no Christian, guillaumeb. trotsky Jan 2019 #68

I already forgave this one. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #70

You are no Christian, guillaumeb. trotsky Jan 2019 #71

Leave me out of your arguments, please, Guy. MineralMan Jan 2019 #90

He said himself he isn't a Christian Major Nikon Jan 2019 #74

He's a "motte-and-bailey" Christian. trotsky Jan 2019 #75

If he actually understood what deists are, he'd probably hate them more than atheists Major Nikon Jan 2019 #80

LMAO you're probably right. trotsky Jan 2019 #81

Which is why trying to have a discussion with Gil is like trying to have a discussion with a MAGAt Major Nikon Jan 2019 #83

Oh that is perfect. Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #116

Yeah, came across it a little while ago. trotsky Jan 2019 #121

When you defined yourself as a deist, did that make you a definer of who isn't a theist? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #72

Remember, the rules he screamingly demands for others don't apply to him. trotsky Jan 2019 #122

That just suggests he is a theist Major Nikon Jan 2019 #123

Or perhaps he convinced himself? trotsky Jan 2019 #124

In this case it looks like both Major Nikon Jan 2019 #125

I will also add that this "pattern" to which you refer... trotsky Jan 2019 #25

Actually that response says all you really need to know Major Nikon Jan 2019 #23

Indeed. trotsky Jan 2019 #26

Does the Bible encourage whataboutism? MineralMan Jan 2019 #6

Just another attempt to derail discussion that someone doesn't want. trotsky Jan 2019 #7

Indeed. Apparently he thinks that MineralMan Jan 2019 #10

More insults from you. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #20

Just observations. MineralMan Jan 2019 #29

No, just insults. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #38

As I said before, you'll know if I ever actually insult you. MineralMan Jan 2019 #59

A pattern. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #62

There you go again trying to run this forum. trotsky Jan 2019 #91

A lot of straw was wasted in building this post. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #92

Bullshit. trotsky Jan 2019 #93

Thus speaks the definer. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #95

So you're claiming that Jesus DIDN'T say those things? trotsky Jan 2019 #98

I don't know edhopper Jan 2019 #31

What does that have to do with the question asked in the OP? MineralMan Jan 2019 #32

What are "ooes"? eom guillaumeb Jan 2019 #39

Typos. Think for a second. MineralMan Jan 2019 #96

Following your lead, sir. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #97

Have you read Leviticus? bitterross Jan 2019 #16

Well, to be honest... trotsky Jan 2019 #18

If you make fun of a bald guy, you should be torn to pieces: LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #27

Even weirder: LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #112

Yep; as I've said before, I consider Saul to be a first-century Joseph Smith or L. Ron Hubbard /nt LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #86

Much of western Christianity is really Paulism. MineralMan Jan 2019 #87

It's amazing how few Christians are aware that most of their faith comes from one who never met LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #88

Nobody involved with writing the New Testament ever met Jesus. MineralMan Jan 2019 #89

Ironically they wrote down Jesus would come back within a generation Major Nikon Jan 2019 #100

Yes. Maybe he did, looked around, saw that people hadn't changed, and MineralMan Jan 2019 #102

Zombie Jesus is just a metaphor Major Nikon Jan 2019 #106

Same difference, really. MineralMan Jan 2019 #107

At least half of US Christians believe in young earth creationism Major Nikon Jan 2019 #108

While I tend to agree, I can't say that with absolute certainty. It's possible some of the original LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #103

I'm an evidence guy. No evidence; no belief. MineralMan Jan 2019 #104

Agreed, but absence of evidence alone is not evidence of absence, and it is possible, LongtimeAZDem Jan 2019 #105

Not exactly Major Nikon Jan 2019 #99

What an odd question... MineralMan Jan 2019 #111

This thread is apparently an extended conversation cyclonefence Jan 2019 #113

You're right. That's a fairly common thing here. MineralMan Jan 2019 #114

I didn't even "drop in" cyclonefence Jan 2019 #115
