Nicely done.

Dammit. I was about to reply to this, but now you're banned. Gosh. Golly, how did that happen?

If you're still reading your feeble attempts at participation here, Jake, and the answers to your ramblings, take your banning to heart as a lesson in simple manners and civility. Then, when you've learned to respect others, and grow up a bit, go and dabble in some other forum for a bit, just to test out your newly gained skills in respect and manners. Then come back and tell us all about it.

Fo'shizzle.

- Good job, pgrmdave

How naive of you and Richard Dawkins, assuming you can know everything.
You respect it? Respecting involves you looking at the ideology and thinking, "Hey, I respect this as one of the infinite number of possibilities."
Instead of just dismissing all beliefs casually because of what you claim to "know."
Could you please point out what you actually mean by "hypocracy (sic)" of religious folklore? Or maybe you just thought saying that would make you look clever, without actually thinking in any way about what you were saying.
So, which one?
NEVER DISMISS ANY BELIEFS. This is a general good rule for philosophy.

I casually dismiss all folklore as Myth, and you would do the same if you took the time to do any research.

Where, did I say I know, or could ever know everything?

First of all may I assume your religious convictions run deep and I have offended you? This is a normal anxiety response when held belief systems are questioned to be mentally healthy.

This response is similar to the drug addict when threatened with intervention of their drug usage.

Yes I do respect religion of all types as intelligently designed, "by humanity" for the express purpose of explaining the unknown and governing the masses from a 1st century world view in most cases.

"The hypocrisy of folklore" I apologies for the previous misspelling of the word.

Hypocrisy is the act of pretending or claiming to have beliefs, feelings, morals or virtues that one does not truly possess or practice.

Religious people claim to be "Theist" while thy are "Atheist", in regard's to all other religious folklore, different from their chosen mythology.

Therefore the hypocrisy is "Theist" to "Atheist".

Explanation:

A. People who believe the Myth of their religion, as reality or truth, in most cases believe other religions outside of their own mythology to be false and in some cases evil. Thus the hypocrit is bourn.

B. Atheist go one God further than the religious person.

You as a true Christian sould dismiss Islam, Bhuddism, Hinduism, Judaism, basically, any other religion as false, and rightly so, seeing as the Bible says you should. There is, after all, only the One True God, the God of Abraham. Yet, you say things like "NEVER DISMISS ANY BELIEFS"...

Once again, the hypocrit is unmasked.

It's a bit like talking to a ghost now that you've pissed all over the carpet and got sentenced to the backyard, but I find it rather curious how skin color entered into your retort.

Also, it's spelled pinhead.

I suspect because Jakely IS Stanley and Stanley is a black man. The former is my speculation, the latter is part of our record.

The Truth about Religion is Relative.

Here is the link to the video. I can't help you find your silverware.

You have assumed that
a) I am a hardliner christian
b) I dismiss all other religious beliefs.

I don't. It's just a case of my own personal feelings on the matter, feelings which I believe cannot be changed.

You also assume that I accept the Bible in all it's irksome glory. I don't: unlike evangelical Christians (who I dislike) I am more open-minded.

Abstruce, you are in fact right. Have a cookie. I do, however, resent the comparison of my religious beliefs to a drug.

Have either of you heard of epistemology? If so, you really should have known what I meant when I referred to being unable to know everything.
As in, testing stuff empirically is just as untrustworthy as thinking it over.

Generalizations are all meaningless...
