Fiddler, I first want to say that you are savoir faire at formulating your opinion, and think they challenge to think about. Secondly I do not understand why you make a personal attack by saying someone is ridicules. For example: Lee your ideas about Evil are stupid because Evil is only a concept. (words are always concepts there ain't no words that fully describe their meaning) Why is Lee his idea about Evil stupid? 3 I get the feeling that you are angry at God because God ain't there, and that this is the result because your beliefs about God have hurt you in the past. (not believing in God is something else than being angry as a result of denial) What happened?
I have pointed this out because I think it is hurts people to personal attack their ideas and it is better to refute ideas/concepts if you want to philosophise. (I think this also counts for more people) Greets, Matthijs On Mar 28, 1:20 am, fiddler <[email protected]> wrote: > I've been terribly busy lately. > > An interesting moment happened lately.
