Maybe just talk in a more direct manner? I know what you are saying, but I would rather not have to decode every post you make.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Best to stick to Biblical definitions.
John 1 has some clear statements, for example.

John is also generally considered one of the least reliable biblical texts in the New Testament.

Of course, but I personally would rather the deep message be direct.

I'm not going to argue with you; I prefer to stick with what Scripture's clear statements are.

Sure, individual statements can be clear, but the bible also conflicts with itself on many issues making the whole thing a lot less clear.

Please try to stay on topic. I'm sure there are lots of more appropriate places you can try and sell your religion.

Concepts that, if we take them at face value, can't even begin to differentiate between when their object is present and absent are pretty much vacuous.

You are a great disappointment to me right now. You've made this god very sad. I can, however, see why you're reluctant to answer.
