[QUOTE="Fishalt, post: 85396, member: 228"] You know, limited to that particular quote, there's admittedly only mild, but nonetheless meaningful clausal difference. Here, I made my case as to why I hold no particular faith;why I find the comparison between theology and science disingenuous., and how belief in a prime creator or the refusal to rule out the existence of one is very far removed from having a faith-based system of belief. I do go on to say that I can't rule out the existence of a prime mover, or creator, which is why quote-mining such as this isn't especially useful. Moreover, I'm not attempting to dissuade anyone from their faith and, as I have stated, I'm generally of the opinion that some people and perhaps the majority of them are better off with one than without. Unlike yourself, creating, and engaging in theological arguments isn't the sine qua non of my time on this forum. Now before you blow a gasket, I understand that's not what you've done here, and you're by no means the only poster guilty of this. You're also by no means the worst, either. However, you do in fact have (masqueraded as they are under some adjacent issue) entire threads apparently designed to spark them up. Or at least one of them. And no, I don't think you should have been suspended from posting there, which is yet another example of why Zip shouldn't be moderating. Regardless, I'm not especially interested in any of this. I might dip my toe in occasionally, but someone who gets tipsy once every three years is not the same thing as an alcoholic. We're talking a different order of magnitude. Obviously. I am nonetheless very disappointed that you returned to posting on Islepoli to have a whinge about it all. That was not a good demonstration of character. [/QUOTE]
