How long do you think they take to think up these questions?
R&S seems to have more than their fair share of posers and haters. Do some just sit around all day thinking up questions like these or do you think they are spur of the moment kinds of things? Since farmers are intelligent designers, does this mean opponents of ID shouldn't eat farmed food? Would it be considered bad manners for R&Sers to raid the Etiquette section? Protestants how can we tell the difference between a real women and an Imp? Spiritually speaking Fundies Protestants Does the Devil Steal infants?

Not long because we keep getting pretty much the same ones over, and over, and over...yet every poster seems to think that they... in their infinite brilliance... have stumbled upon THE unique truth that has eluded 20 centuries worth of theologians.
YES, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Augustine, Karl Barth, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther, John Knox, C.S. Lewis, St. Ambrose, all pale in comparison to some suburban 15 year old going under the name of "Darth Hefner" that can't use a spellchecker.
The other one is, I do wish we could see a question that applied to reality at some point. Most of the questions are strictly "Straw Man" arguments. Something that had some logic to it would be nice.
I do enjoy it when Lime Green Ninja posts...he/she is smart, and knows big words, and is educated.
I think it's sad in a way. What should be a category of great expanse has been reduced to an Atheist/Christian boxing match with a crowd of snide onlookers.
You could give a million reasons, change the world and change the times, but you could not give me the secrets of your heart and of your mind. In the darkness that surrounds me now there is no peace of mind. Your careless words undo me.
