Why did Jesus Leave?

Because, as I said, such "evidence", is not sufficiently backed up. (As my faith in God is) Therefore, I choose to reject your claim.

Backed up by what? Recall that I asked you this in another thread.

So are you going to address them or not?

I've answered you, you don't ''like'' my responses. But, I've answered you. lol

 

[Archaeopteryx]

I've answered you, you don't ''like'' my responses. But, I've answered you. lol

Actually, you were being evasive, and you still are.

 

[amariselle]

You do realise that you are just demonstrating my point, right?

"Oh, I could choose to, but I just don't wanna..."

Exactly, belief is a choice. I chose to reject my belief in unicorns, and I chose to believe in God. We all have a choice.

 

[amariselle]

Except you are. LOL. You could just answer the question. Instead you evade and come up with excuses.

Oh, so it's an "excuse" to refer to the fact that you were once a Christian?

 

[amariselle]

I've answered you, you don't ''like'' my responses. But, I've answered you. lol

Exactly. I've repeatedly come up against the same accusations. Apparently when someone finds your answers "unsatisfactory", they can then accuse you of not answering at all.

LOL. This is becoming comical. You could choose, and thereby prove me wrong, but you "just don't wanna."

 

[amariselle]

Actually, you were being evasive, and you still are.

You need to stop making these accusations. Just because you don't like someone's answers or you don't find them "satisfactory", does not mean you can accuse them of not answering at all.

I thought you were interested in being honest? Doesn't seem like it.

I've already addressed this:

Yes, and I explained why your answers didn't satisfy the question or why they raised further questions. You ignored my explanations or gave the meagre rebuttal of "that's just your opinion, man." In other words, it seems as though you don't care about the merit of your answers, so long as you are able to say that you gave an answer.

Actually, there were several posts that she did not respond to at all.

Want I don't want to do is accept your ultimatum. My beliefs are not a game to me, and I don't choose to believe something just to "prove a point." The fact that you think I should is what's "comical."

Do you really consider this approach an honest one?

Yes, it's an excuse. It doesn't in any way answer the question.

Come on, amariselle. We both know why you won't choose to believe that there is a prancing unicorn in your backyard, not even for 5 minutes... Because you can't choose to believe that.

 

[Deidre32]

Actually, you were being evasive, and you still are.

Please stop insulting me. I don't wish to speak with you anymore.

I've reported you...you're in violation of the rules here, for the forum. You're not permitted to mock us, and that is most likely why you're here.

 

[Archaeopteryx]

Insulting you? How have I insulted you?

Excuse me? How have you been mocked?

Well, perhaps you should politely address that then. Instead you are insulting her (as you've insulted others). Do you think anyone wants to continue a dialogue with someone who insults them?

Which is in fact why I have stopped dialoguing with you multiple times. At which point you have continued to insult me with accusations like "you're running away again."

Fair enough. Your choice. But if you don't want to be honest, then don't expect others to think you truly are interested in honest discussion/debate.

 

[amariselle]

Yes, it's an excuse. It doesn't in any way answer the question.

Fair enough, you are free to believe that.

 

[Archaeopteryx]

Well, perhaps you should politely address that then.

I did:

Okay, but that doesn't remotely address my comments.

So are you going to address them or not?

What insult? I observed that she was being evasive; her responses did not address the content of my posts.
