Atheists believe in miracles more than believers

Nope. So do you want to answer in a thread that asks why you say you believe in God and more specifically?
Why should I answer your questions when you never answer mine? Why this obsession with a Christian that accepts science? What is it that you want to gain in relation to the OP here or the OP's of the many threads that you have repeated this, seeming obsessive line of pursuit on?

I'll answer you if you tell me what is the secret on being a "Staff Member" ... so I can put you on ignore with the rest of people I don't mind what they say. ;)
Having the strength and curtesy to directly answer people without hiding behind claims of ignoring them isn't an issue that requires explanation as near as I can tell and given that YOU create these OP's, you have a duty to your burden of proof and to reasonable debate to do these things that is pre-existing in my understanding of things. Not to mention your claimed position of personal belief I would think. Is it your intention to convey to others that you believe this is how Christ operated?

Can machines be entitle with the "Staff Member" thing? :cool:

It's not an obsession but obviously you and your cohorts here most of whom are atheists agree that evolution is how life moved along from some guess of a start. I'm not sure what questions I have not answered of you, be that as it may if you want to ask and I can answer I will. But my guess is you will refrain and tell me why you will not ask a reasonable question. That's ok. I used to be a paid professional musician in a large church. I was an atheist but loved the music. I still listen to some like Handel's Messiah. Thank you for letting me know more.

How do you think Christ operated?

Interesting that you lead with an accusation based on a lack of understanding of the science.
I'm not sure what questions I have not answered of you
Of course not. I didn't spend a year following you around repeating them and they were relevant to the topics being discussed too.
, be that as it may if you want to ask and I can answer I will.
I have been given no reason to believe that and unless the questions and answer are relevant to the OP, I am not going delve further and continue an effort that has been previously and soundly demonstrated to be fruitless. I merely mention the fact in contrast to the exhibited behavior.
But my guess is you will refrain and tell me why you will not ask a reasonable question.
Of course. It is a reasonable response given the past performance.
That's ok. I used to be a paid professional musician in a large church.
How nice for you.
I was an atheist but loved the music.
Fine, but again, irrelevant.
I still listen to some like Handel's Messiah. Thank you for letting me know more.
I've have only pointed out what I think you already know.

Anything related to the OP?

How do you think Christ operated?
But given that you seem to be defending the approach here, are the demonstrated methods that we have witnessed here by those claiming to be Christian something that you would consider to be how Christ wanted others to witness?

Do recall that you said you would answer my questions. I've already answered yours. Like my previous questions, you must have forgotten.

So, is it?

Sometimes I don't read all the posts. Is there a particular question you'd like to ask me? or -- is it to be tabled for a while?

If it is not an obsession, what would you call hounding someone for over a year with the same repeated demands be called?

Thank you again...you have really helped.
And more not answering my questions that you said you would answer. What do you think that demonstrates to the wider view? You do claim to be Christian, so it would be reasonable for me to expect an answer from someone professing that position don't you think?

Please excuse, sometimes I don't go over long posts. Now let's see -- are there questions here from you to me? You have a question mark after your last phrase. Could you please rephrase? Right now I am needing to leave the board, so I wish you well. But please try to rephrase and ask a question coherently if you care to (you may not want to, that's your choice) and as succinctly as possible. No offense I hope. You did say, I see, that you have a caveat about whether questions are relevant to the OP and will not answer as you decide.

By the way, that I had been an atheist is not irrelevant at all. But! thanks again. So glad to have met you.

Does anything you are attempting to do here have anything to do with explaining, demonstrating or supporting the OP? Or are they just diversions to imply something about me that has nothing to do in any way in supporting the OP?

Is that short enough for you? Is it clear enough? Do you want me to try and reduce it down further?
