this forum is a drain which russ and chris created to keep religion out of the general forum.
you are a circling drain.
i do not post this as someone who is anti-religious. i am a great friend of the mormons and of the baptists.
i just point out that all i have seen for years is fingerpointing and recidivist orthodoxy thrown about again and again.
the anti and pro religionists have never raised or solved new questions ( the intellectualism is not that strong here ).
you are hamsters on a wheel...or as russ and chris intended...you are flotsam and jetsam circling the never ending maw of the non-general drain of life.

You are mistaken in assuming that you are observing that flotsam and jetsam from afar instead of being immersed in it.

i am just walking by the drain as i walk by the railroad tracks and am just making an observation. i am not dipping my nose in the swill. you will note that i have not been an active and constant participant in this slog even though otherwise i have spent much time in my life in other domains in the area of "religion".

"i just point out that all i have seen for years is fingerpointing and recidivist orthodoxy thrown about again and again."
(Ecclesiastes 1:12-14) . . .I, the congregator, happened to be king over Israel in Jerusalem. And I set my heart to seek and explore wisdom in relation to everything that has been done under the heavens—the calamitous occupation that God has given to the sons of mankind in which to be occupied. I saw all the works that were done under the sun, and, look! everything was vanity and a striving after wind.
. . .And I, even I, turned toward all the works of mine that my hands had done and toward the hard work that I had worked hard to accomplish, and, look! everything was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing of advantage under the sun.

I disagree. I believe your comments only represent a portion of the content on this forum.

Ecclesiastes 12:13
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Life itself is the flotsam and jetsam you describe. This forum is but one small piece of flotsam (or jetsam) in that that wide, wide ocean of the universe.
