Dont make the troll cry mauddib. Well done on totally owning him. Ignorance will never win here.

Thanks, these idiots think that being racist or trying to get a raise out of you makes them somehow clever. When they have no point to make they just act like children. Never give them the reaction they want is the key. Just sit back and wait for them to mature and make a real point.

i can describe myself as theist , i think good is something similar to christian god but i have a problem with allpowerfull part. Im not asking because im interested in what you believe only in the way you phrase it.

@niinja2

If you mean the one who is all-good, all-powerful and all-knowing, that would not be wrong. What about you?

[niinja2]

@gr0mithtimon

this clarifies your view quite a bit.

would it be wrong to describe you as a person which believes there is no christian god?

@niinja2

What do you mean by neutral? People who say "I don't know"? I call them atheists, as they are without theism.

[gr0mithtimon]

@niinja2

I hope you are joking

[gr0mithtimon]

@niinja2

No, but I don't know all the possible god-ideas so I can't say they are all false. I can only say the ones I've seen seemed wholly unsubstantiated, and some were patently false, so I expect similar results in the future.

@gr0mithtimon

im heaving a problem of determining where do you put people who have neutral view , or even do you think that view can exist?

"One can belong to this group with respect to the existence of God without ever thinking about i"

how can someone belong to a group that thinks obama is good or bad president if they dont think about this?
