Well, when you have no idea what you're tallking about then I guess it's rather fufilling playing games... Ja?Kristoffer wrote:Are you sure that's not "croquet" the game with hammers because I play that. It can get very unfair
Anyway, this is sort of a situation? I mean this is a sort of example of a time when its ok to be a little bit in error, for fun

That doesn't follow too well for me but perhaps I am misunderstanding you.I got that you are an agnostic, not an atheist.
Perhaps I am. Does God hate the Merriam Webster definition "worship of God"? And forgive me about being suspicious when a 'wretched man' tells me what Gos loves and God hates.Fürstentum Liechtenstein wrote:Too bad. God himself hates religion and you have «a love for it».

I see it as mockery, you telling me you got it from a book doesn't change this. Many here claim to also follow this book, yet manage to avoid the condescending tone.Fürstentum Liechtenstein wrote:The first part you got right. The second part you got wrong because you misunderstood what I wrote to you earlier. I don't mock atheists, I treat them as the Bible requires.Proinsias wrote:That you have went from an atheist who despises Christianity to a Christian who mocks atheism does not surprise me. One exteme to the other.
No. It's not devoid of sense to me and many others, if you can't cope with that's fine. One deals with knowledge and the other belief. One can also be a agnostic theist - a theist in belief who does not yet have gnosis of God.I have no problem with the terms «Kristoffer atheist» or «Dawkins atheist». However, Kristoffer defined himself as an agnostic atheist, a term devoid of sense as the words that compose it are mutually...opposed. It is like saying a «square circle» or a «triangular line»...it makes no sense. Get it?
I have done. Agnostic atheist may be something we disagree upon but no need to start calling people major fools.DannyM wrote:Pro,
You should go back and look at the context in which FL 'called' Kristoffer a "major fool". You'll see what I mean.

What is the definition of «worship of God»? and how could you possibly know? A dictionary would have no such definition.Proinsias wrote:Does God hate the Merriam Webster definition "worship of God"? And forgive me about being suspicious when a 'wretched man' tells me what Gos loves and God hates.
There is no mockery although you are interpreting that. Maybe your feelings are easily hurt, I don't know. Get over it.Proinsias wrote:I see it as mockery, you telling me you got it from a book doesn't change this. Many here claim to also follow this book, yet manage to avoid the condescending tone.
Now, you are far too strict in your sourpuss/narrow-minded definition of the term «major fool»! I meant it as «you funny guy!» or «you great big funny guy!» Don't you know that words are plastic and we can use them whichever way we want? Talk about being in a straight-jacket!Proinsias wrote:...no need to start calling people major fools.
Sometimes though you just have to put on a brave face and be deadly serious.Yo kris! What's 'appenin'? I was thinking of spending a week in Sweden one day - where should I stay?Kristoffer wrote:Nothing wrong with being funny. Well on the condition that the situation calls for it.
