Celebrating 1 year of being here

Yeah, it is an experience to be here. I was beaten (by Rick), called an ***, ... :D
Now seriously. I am really glad I have discovered this forum. You know how I discovered it? I was googling 'Bible authenticity' and found some article by Rich. Then I discovered there is a forum. And that's how I jumped in. I discovered there are nice people here, educated as well. (And now I managed to interact with one of the biggest fishes here on the forum :) )

Greetings,
Hana

Hana,
FTR, I don't recall beating you at anything. I humbly recall, that I predicted that the Slovakia hockey team, had no chance at beating the US. And, your team won that round. And I hope I wasn't the one who called you an ***. :lol:

I'm glad you decided to stay. I found this forum, while doing a google search as well. Rich Deem's name kept popping up, and that led me here.

I found this forum by typing in Scientific proof for the existence of God in Google - and the rest is history.

I typed in, "Where do I argue with like-minded Christians?"

Ah Hana, this is one of those 'American' expressions which stands for 'beating a dead horse' meaning there is no point in discussing the matter. Rick was not calling a horse (or worse).

Language is a wonderful thing, that's a funny but understandable "lost in translation" moment.

Good to have you here, Hana.

Hana, here's the thread where I used the beating a dead horse smilie:http://discussions.godandscience.org/vi ... 85#p117185

The :beat: wasn't even directed at you. I was using the" beating the dead horse ", to say that the article you asked about, was full of "infinite regress". If God was created by something else, and that something else was created by something else, etc., one still hasn't answered the question of "the beginning". Or, what was here first. Claiming infinite universes, is another example of infinite regress. And we've talked about infinite regress so much, that I felt like we were :beat: .

I can't believe you actually thought I was "beating" you, with the "beating a dead horse" smilie. :crying: :crying:

@ Rick: I thougt that that smiley meant you wanted to wake me up. Not really beating me. I felt like I am not catching something.
