Bored Chemist says: Incidentally, Tom the rooster isn't mourning, he is calling out for a replacement.
GG: Are you well versed in chicken psychology? Sounds good to me hope you are right. I am looking for another mate but only small chickens are available and the chicken hawks will eat them rapidly unless I cage them until they are larger.

DuffyD says:That is Christianity in a word. Giving of yourself, your means, to help someone in need. Bless you
GG: Thanks. You feel for things. Feelings verses logic and reasoning are always in conflict. Two sides of us. To believe or not to believe. To see what others cannot see. The believer thinks Jesus is something. The non-believer thinks he is nothing. I look at all the religions of man and see that they all have truth in them. The spirit inside us seeks the spirit from which it came.  I preach no particular religion. They all seek the Father God, the spirit of the Earth itself.

Not really. I feel and I think. They do war at times but they can work together. I don't abandon reason for emotion or emotion for reason.

"I will call you what you are and you consistently misrepresent the truth. I haven’t called you a liar because, like Alan, I am not certain you have the reasoning ability to understand how you are misrepresenting the truth." colin

Colin said,
"Why do you deliberately mislead people.?" colin
Colin said he never called me a liar.

Guess what they call, "deliberately misleading people"?
and colin didn't call me a liar?

No! I'm too retarded to be called a LIAR, remember? I merely "deliberately mislead people" because I'm too stupid to lie. Remember? I could grow to like that rationale. "Hey, you idiot. I didn't lie. I can't lie. I don't know how to lie. Duh, see, I ain't too bright. Judge he did it and I ain't lying. Too dumb to know how." "Let him go. Innocent on all counts." Garsh, thanks you onor."
Please remove your insults. I have asked you to remove them before. Your lack of cooperation points to insincerity. There are many others that should be removed, too, so please do get rid of them. You removed comments I made and threatened to ban me.

Colin, do you know what a figure of speech is? Do you know what personification is? Hyperbole? Apply them to my comment that science says there is no God. You see, science can't talk. I was personifying science, making it or attaching to it human characteristics. It is not human. I'm dumb, but not that dumb. Then, I had science making a generalized statement. When I made science say it doesn't believe in God, I didn't mean literally that science became a human being. I was saying that as a personified entity, its statement that "science doesn't believe in God" I wasn't implying or stating as fact that  every scientist, every scientific discovery, every bit of science, all of science in every field,  doesn't believe in God. It was hyperbole. Do you know what that is? That's right. It's an exaggeration to make or stress a point. Hyperbole isn't to be taken literally. So, instead of accusing me of and condemning me for misrepresenting what science says, keep in mind those commonly used literary tools.

Not as strongly as your dishonesty points to insincerity.

If you don't want to get called a liar, it's quite simple. Don't say things that are not true.
