And I promise to behave. I've come to the conclusion that there aren't any cogent arguments for the existence of a deity, and I've kind of lost interest, so I'm just here to make some friends and have some friendly chat. If I get close to the line (which is always a possibility, especially after a cheeky shiraz or two), let me know, and I will modify.

Like the new board, BTW.

Peace.

Welcome back.



Asmo will probably prepare the calf latter.

This will be interesting, you do have a tendancy to be, well, Brutal!

Welcome back.

Hi Hack

Very good to see you back!

Enjoy.

It is my intention to fillet arguments only, rather than subject them to blunt force trauma. I'm partway through writing a book, and I wwant to work on my delivery a bit. :wink:

Good to see you back, hackenslash. I checked out your response to Light's post, and I really enjoyed it. I honestly don't think that your arguments are any less effective minus the sprinkling ( :D) of pungent invective which you have employed in the past. In my opinion, Light deserved the hackenslash treatment™ as much or more than some others, but I also think that thoroughly demolishing an asinine argument while maintaining strict decorum is a skill that is worthy of cultivation. I look forward to further efforts in that vein from you.
