"You can lead a horse to water but, you can't make them drink."  My condolences that your 'horse' has become so dehydrated.

You are repeating yourself.  You carry that wherever you go in here.  I thought you would come up with a much more "wordy" comment than that.  Alas... *sigh*

On the contrary, such blind "faith" isn't difficult to comprehend as it consists merely of the circularity of believing because one has faith. 

Which words were "too big" to understand; 'circularity' or 'comprehend'?

Conversely, such strict adherence to blind faith while declining to admit the inherent irrationality involved can emphasize the very thing 'believers' wish to avoid.

Such a criticism of others is ironic; moreso when an inaccurate intent is assumed, ("... to try and make the other person feel bad just because you don't happen to feel the same way").

Your attempt to quote me out of context backfires for two reasons.  The first being that the comments made were emphasizing the meta-concept of criticizing others for criticizing others, (not opposing criticisms).  The second reason it backfired is because you merely quoted me aithout attribution while failing to refute what was quoted, (presumably in a weak attempt to 'use my own words against me').  As my youngest daughter would say, "epic fail" on your part.

You are mistaken; I haven't posted that before now.  My own quote is a variation of the original, (if it was too subtle to grasp, I can understand why you'd perceive it as "repeating").

So much for your asumptions then.

Also, you reminded me to call you falcon9, and I am asking you to call me jcribb16.  Thanks for the courtesy of fair respect.  I wouldn't make a deal of mine if you hadn't of yours.[/color]

Uhhhhh...........the request (below) from falcon9 was to use the CORRECT "NAME"......because you addressed him as just "falcon"

it's "falcon9", (so as to avoid conflating respondants)

Just pointing out that your point that you were "making a deal of yours" because falcon9 did.......well.......
it MAKES NO SENSE!

It makes perfect sense.  He called me Julie.  I don't go by that in here, except for a couple of friends who know me outside of here or we have known each other for quite awhile.  Courtesy goes both ways.

[falcon9]

"Talking around?"  Oh yeah, like you and Falconer do;  you and duroz do;  etc.  Forgot to check the mote in your own eye first, did you.

The difference there is that we've more often quoted and replied directly to your nonsense, as opposed to exclusively replying to one another.  Subtle, is it not? <-- sarcasm

Following others in other groups (or threads as I would normally say since you wish to be so technical) isn't trolling to you?  Okay, then we'll go back to the term "following" (where some thought "stalking" was the better word.)

Motes are motes; both of you have 'followed' my posts to various threads and yet, that's not "stalking" either, huh?  <-- more sarcasm

Your refutations are not clear refutations of what refutations you say others can't digest when you are making such refutations yourself....

Well, they may not be "clear" to you however, your inability to comprehend a refutation is more your responsibility than mine.  Reason can refute irrationality while irrationality has not refuted reason thusfar.

ERROR---that quote wasn't from jcribb, troll.

And I didn't say it was, Ms GIANT fricking troll.
IF you were able to read and comprehend, you would see that the "jcribb" is included within the quotation, and is not noted as the author......
So ERROR!!

Good job!! But at least you took another opportunity to name-call (even if you were COMPLETELY wrong about whatever else you said)

[jcribb16]

The only thing is, with this, is there is no experience of understanding true faith as a believer in God.

On the contrary, such blind "faith" isn't difficult to comprehend as it consists merely of the circularity of believing because one has faith. 

So this one would be beating us with an empty round of nothing except for a recording of the same big words.  

Which words were "too big" to understand; 'circularity' or 'comprehend'?

I'll strictly adhere to my faith - I agree arguing will do nothing more than drag down and annoy others.  

Conversely, such strict adherence to blind faith while declining to admit the inherent irrationality involved can emphasize the very thing 'believers' wish to avoid.

No one said anything about not understanding big words.  Sorry to burst your confidence bubble.   Your last sentence is very judgmental, and is demeaning to others who believe opposite of you.  People are tired of being accused of untruths that you continually push on them.  It's called respect of other peoples' beliefs, whether you like it or not, and whether you agree or not.  Period.

It makes perfect sense. 

No, it doesn't - "duroz" is perfectly accurate regarding the 'nym correction.  There are two members with similar 'nyms on FC and a distinction was being made between them.

He called me Julie.  I don't go by that in here, except for a couple of friends who know me outside of here or we have known each other for quite awhile. 

You are mistaken in that you do sign some posts with your name in other forums/threads.  Therefore, you do go by that in FC, (where those threads are not private blogs, forums, journals or emails but, are public posts - otherwise, how would I know that name?).

Courtesy goes both ways.

So does discourtesy however, that was not my intent.  I can resume calling you "jbribb16" without a hitch.

[jcribb16]

Well, pardon me.  I will change it to "You have no room to judge..."[/color]

Everyone judges, that includes us.  Although your judgement that I "have no room to judge" is a baseless assertion.

Perhaps in your mind.  However, you are judging and and are not so perfect that you think you have room to judge.  You need to come back down to reality.

Wrong poster.  Are you trying to cause trouble in here?

Reread the threads involved; "duroz" has one of the two posters doing so.  Pointing that out isn't "trying to cause trouble" since that stemmed from those posters doing so before "duroz" pointed it out.

My error - sorry.  Someone likes to post it, I know that much.  Just please don't try to drown my horse nor dehydrate my horse, and definitely don't keep beating my horse.  Thank you.

You're welcome...and it still hasn't been corrected that you weren't the OP of that quote...what a

It's not only in my mind; it's right here on our computer screens in this very post. 

However, you are judging and and are not so perfect that you think you have room to judge.

'Perfection' has nothing to do with judging, (despite some religious beliefs).  As anyone can read, I replied that 'Everyone judges, that includes us'.  

You need to come back down to reality.

Conversely, I started looking for that postcard for you which reads, "Greeting from earth - wish you were here" but, the sentiment would likely be to subtle for you.
