ps. i'm sorry for the multiple posts. i haven't yet learned how to reply to more than one post at a time other than just listing the stuff, but that could get confusing to the other posters.
also, how do you bold face the type in the post?
[b ]...[/b ]
except leave out the space after the 'b'.

Originally posted by Zander 88you are correct in your assumption of what i meant.
How do you find people who don't follow a religious belief gullible? And certianly you don't believe you are also gullible. If so then you admit your religion is false. A bit confused here....
Ah, I think you just meant you were considered gullible by others, not that you assert you are. my bad. 🙂
i also think it is safe to say that we are all atheist in some way. for instance, i don't believe in woden and thor, or krishna etc. therefore, i am atheist when it comes to these deities.

Originally posted by Big MacAbsolutely, damn languages. I mean, what where people thinking, making the plural of "apply" into "applies"! Making it so confusing! And capital letters, what are they about?!
hate french. why can't they pronounce every letter like german, spanish, latin, greek, etc.
of course this applys to english, not a fan. and i'm an american. 😉
I mean, I'm glad you've got a b.a., which I can only assume is similar to a B.A., unlike these illegible idiots with their punctuation.

I'll try to do better in the future. You are truly intelligent. I was actually hoping to get your opinion on Edinburough U. for my J.D. Any thoughts? (Other than whether there should be another Christian lawyer out there)

Originally posted by Big MacI can tell you right now that you and I have very, very different tastes
amazing grace is a beautiful song. especially if one is familiar with the story behind it's writing.
you should also check out the story behind "it is well with my soul." very moving.
in hymns. Textually, I find It is well with my soul to be mediocre
at best; musically, it's almost juvenile.
I am familiar with the stories behind the writings of both hymns. That
doesn't influence my opinion of them.

Originally posted by Big MacThanks, always nice to get a compliment, although besides people like vistesd, ammanion, Umbrage, twhitehead or Nemesio, I hardly warrant it!

Edinburgh is a fantastic university. Definitely, if you have a chance to study there, you should. Although, I would caution that Edinburgh is an expensive city, so budget well.

Originally posted by NemesioWow! A truly difficult task. I would consider it tantamount to playing a trap set of drums. I personally cannot keep my feet and hands moving as different tempos.
I am a professional organist.
I, too, am somewhat of a musician. I play guitar, trumpet, piano, and banjo.

And, I thoroughly disagree with your self-abasement. You are truly very intelligent and well-spoken. We may not agree on some very fundelmental things, but I give you my respect none-the-less.
Please continue in your posts. You give me a lot to think about.

Originally posted by NemesioFair enough. I'll certainly not try to suede your opinion on such trivial matters as taste. However, perhaps you could help me. I'm still learning the nuances of RHP. I just learned how to bold face my type. Could you explain how to italicize it?
