Hello....from the frozen tundra that is Canada!

Fukinell, is he gone already  ?

Thanks for the welcome ....after a brief scroll through all the comments, I tell you I really feel the loooovvvveeee! 

But seriously, most have been tactful and gracious in their responses far and seem to be open to intellectually honest discussion. Something I welcome 1000% and hope to return.  However, the brashness and impetuous responses of a few tells me that such respectful interactions may not always be possible. 

If it wasn't for other more pressing responsibilities, I'd love to sit and chat/post 24hrs a day.  But alas, my time is restricted, so although I may not respond to all your comments, be assured I will read them when I can. But I can assure you, I am still here. 

I'm looking forward to chatting with most of you.

Glad to see you're still around! And an early riser! Maybe I'll catch you online sometimes.

I get up at 4 every morning just to celebrate the day with some music (I like classic rock). I also get my best poetry inspiration early, usually from the morning news (don't neglect the poem that I left for you).

I used to be a Christian, and like to argue apologetics from time to time.

Again, welcome!

Thanks man!  Yes, checked out the poem. You definitely got a gift there - very articulate and intelligible.

Very Christian of you! Solitary

Thanks, Tr...can I call you, "Mooses?" Your name is so long to write, and THF seems so impersonal.

[Solomon Zorn]

What's worse: believing in someone you can't see, or having an insatiable, ravenous and ferocious hatred for someone who doesn't exist?

Don't misrepresent my despising of my own past delusions, and my derision for the mythology that helped create them, as hatred for God. I am done with loving/hating God.

Sure thing!

THF--you post this statement under you name: What's worse: believing in someone you can't see, or having an insatiable, ravenous and ferocious hatred for someone who doesn't exist?

What is worse?  Believing in someone who you can't see---that depends upon who that 'someone' is and to what purpose you believe in that someone.  I suppose you are alluding to Jesus Christ?  The evidence points toward his being a creation of myth, created more for politics and maintaining power than anything else.  His words vary so much that one can believe in almost anything with his name attached to it. 

You also suggest--.....or having an insatiable, ravenous and ferocious hatred for someone who doesn't exist?  I don't hate Jesus Christ (that would be like saying I hated the tooth fairy), but I do hate all the violence, stupidity, and destruction that is caused while invoking his name--and I hate the institutions who foster that violence and destruction.

You're over 10 posts now, Mooses. If there's something you want to discuss you can start a new thread anywhere on the forum.

Just a quick tangent:

Hey Mike! Congratulations on evolving into an algae! I'm still a fun Gus. Is Shiranu the only homo-sapiens? He's the only one I've seen.

Thanks, Solomon.  I did not notice that until now.  I look forward being with you in fun gus. :)

It's I who will be an algae in a mere 80 more posts!

Ooo! 420 gets a celebration as well, it seems!

And your right, Solomon, I haven't seen many homo's of the sapien type running around here myself.
