According to the King James Bible at John 8:58, trinity believers feel that Jesus was claiming to be the great I AM of Exodus 3:14. If that is the case, why would he call his Father the ONLY true God at John 17:3?

I see christians and atheists all the time complaining on here that they are being disrespected. Take a look at this question.. is this the kind of "respect" you'd like shown to your beliefs? I know most faiths have a "golden rule".. that treat others as you want to be treated. I just wondered how you all apply it in this instance:

university crowds (I base this on the attempt made by the University where I live to make me abort my son who was born normal but, they kept trying to talk me into an abortion merely because I was 35 when I had him. They told me that there was a great chance he would be a Down's Syndrome child and they weren't even human because the body normally screens them out and gets rid of them naturally but, once in a while one slips through) , so do you feel they have a soul?

I personally feel they are God's special children, who are more innocent than most people but, most assuredly they have a soul.

If we are to be tolerant of everyone, we should have some straight parades that celebrate the fact that we are not wrong. And that anyone who even tries to think otherwise is a heterophobe.

So if the theory of evolution is right! We would see humans evolving in other things or creatures or whatever.

Therefore, the Theory of Evolution happened long time ago! Now it is dead.

You do realize, I hope, that not all theists are like these fundamentalists that base all their faith on a text that they cannot even read and need someone else to translate for them.

That some of us realize that empirical scientific evidence has more weight than a theological view point. And that many of us have no interest in forcing or even pressuring our theology on you.

please dont tell me you view us all in the same light.

Ok, I know many of us do not believe the same way. But, there are some of you who are the on the complete opposite scale of beliefs that I respect so much. A dear friend just passed away and as I type this I am overwhelmed with saddness. I would really appreciate prayers from those who do believe and some good mojo from those who don't. . .please think of his dear family. . .thanks in advance.

I have spent many years arguing on the level of politics and ethics.

I had always thought that this was about the lowest level you could really have a coherent argument in, because more basic concepts are too firmly self-evident and ingrained in the minds of those who hold them.

However, after much experience, it's become clear that no attempt at higher level debate is possible unless there is agreement on the basics.

So the only way to make any headway seems to be to start with dispelling the supernatural metaphysics that underlies so much of today's thought. The desired outcome would be either to change the minds of religionists (I know, not much chance of that) or to marginalize them, removing them from any serious consideration in serious debate.

What is the best strategy?

1. Using logic consistently both in dealing with them and educating others?

2. Using ridicule and shame to reveal how absurd their ideas are, and possibly make them actually think about them?

I've wondered how many people have whole heartedly accepted christianity w/o wondering why it is they even believe it. Show me why you believe in Christianity or any other religion.
