    Do you think the question is for ten year olds?

    They could answer yes or no couldn't they? I mean they go to church, have Sunday school, etc.

    All I really need to know I learned in kindergarten. :D

    Amazon.com: All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten: Robert Fulghum: Books

    Regardless I think my response was rational and thoughtful. Perhaps you would benefit from my advice if you could let go of some of that anger.

    Ok, just for you memory handicapped poster on this board (handicapped when it suits you) here is my post once more :

    What a silly person you must be to post so much foolishness...

    To start : may be you should start listening to me and others first...
    And yes, I had something better to do than listen to you and your theistic peers...

    But how terrible that you had to wait 1 or 2 days for my reaction after the one in post #4.
    How did you survive all that long waiting?
    Of course I was not aware that prior to a visit to my children and grandchildren in England I had to notify you personally. My absence on-line here seems to have caused so much of a traumatic experience to you that you have my full sympathy, and I quickly add a "mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa" to make it up to you...

    Please take careful note of the following expected days off-line here :

    During the last week of November 2008 I will be on a short business trip to the Far East = off-line.
    Early December 2008 I will be visiting again my children and grandchildren in England = off-line.
    Over Christmas 2008 I will be visiting my daughter in Africa = off-line.
    February-March 2009 I will be on a ski holiday in Switzerland = off-line.
    Spring 2009 I will most probably sailing again in my yacht on the Atlantic Ocean and - possibly - in the Mediterranean Sea. But on-board I - fortunately for you - have a satellite link, so that I can remain on-line.
    For summer 2009 no firm plans are presently available - my sincere apologies for that inconveniance are hereby offered. Most probably it will be a visit to Australia or Thailand.

    I just give you all that information already so that you can prepare yourself for all these long absences. I hate to think that you - in your confusion caused by these absences - will step off a high building, jump in front of a train, or electrocute yourself at the Christmas tree, just because all these unannounced and long absences drive you into complete insanity. Subject of course that you have not arrived at that result already, which - from your post here - is another rather viable possibility...

    That post I referred to...

    :D :rolleyes: :D :rolleyes: :D

    Well your post seems to be a statement that doesn't need to be replied to. So what reply were you expecting?

    I'm not angry exactly, guys, just disappointed. When I see that Arcura's question has over 50 answers, I sort of expected to see more than a pile of junk here when I made the effort to read them. Since in 50 replies that has not happened I guess it's time to unsubscribe to this Q as well.

    And yes, if the reply would be expected to be, "I don't know, I'll have to go ask my mother" that is not a college level question.

    What I was trying to get across was, we are talking about the finer points of the Christian faith, and for some reason you seem to think this needs a reply from you about Greek mythology?

    Get a clue, fellas. Posting that does not make you look smart, it makes you look like someone who can't read and comprehend basic English. I'm not going to sufddenly say to myself, "wow he's right, I need to completely renounce Christianity and follow pagan beliefs!"
    I'm much more likely to start trying to remember which organic brain disorder or particular drug interaction I've studied in physiology class is likely to cause someone to display this type of lack of insight and/or confusion.

    wildandblue,
    It seems to me that some did answer the question from their point of view.
    Some alluded that this day and age made things different; that using the internet or other means to get in touch with the world would work.
    Persoanlly if Jesus asked me to go out and do as His disciples and apostles did way back them and IF I had the physical ability to do so (which I do not) I would go and do the best I could for Him and those I contacted.
    Peace and kindness,
    Fred (arcura)

    That "pile of junk" seems to have started with your first reaction... That reaction you could not even remember ! :D
    Please note that my first reaction replied to Fred's question spot on. And many others did the same. It seems that you think that only answers that suit you are "valid" replies...

    Indeed : also your memory and your spelling does not make you look very smart ! :D
