That's a big enough stretch to make Gumby envious of you. Ever consider a job as a circus contortionist?

Have you gone completely mad? Can you really have forgotten your very own post 756, where we were all treated to such exegeses as

Is your system of morality so unstable that you cannot know if murder, pedophilia, and rape are right or wrong each day without checking the Congressional Review and Supreme Court rulings each morning?

When Hillary gets into office and enacts the rest of her "child rights" program, and the age of consent is lowered - will that make what the Catholic priests are doing to their altar boys suddenly acceptable? Is what they've done right or wrong? How can you possibly say it's wrong now, but might be right in a few years? That's a "standard"?

Have you completely forgotten your very own post 772, where we came to know and love such awesome logic as could produce

If you are an evolutionist, you are un-American. You have no foundation for the rights we enjoy because they were endowed on us by our Creator. If you have no Creator, you have no unalienable rights.

and

If you deny creation by the Creator, you deny the basis for your rights as an American.

Oh, no you don't. You posted those words, and now you can live with them - I think I'm right on target with my reading of your very words as you have posted them. Deny Genesis as a literal account of creation, and you have no basis to consider things like pedophilia to be wrong. Deny Genesis as a literal account of creation, and you're positively un-American.

But God knows, that's no smear. God knows, that's not a personal attack. Bravo to you, sir - you shall have your eternal reward for doing the Lord's work, no doubt...

<< Oh, no you don't. You posted those words, and now you can live with them >>

I will live with the words *I* posted, but not the words YOU posted:

<< you suggested that people who consider the Book of Genesis to be allegorical rather than literal to be on the verge of promoting pedophilia. >>

I did say they were un-American - and gave the references to prove it. I did say they had an unstable morality and had no absolute basis to determine right from wrong (and nobody has shown otherwise). I did say they had no foundation or basis for their morality, and thereby had no grounds on which to say things like pedophilia are wrong - but I did not say that those who take Genesis allegorically are on the verge of promoting pedophilia. I only suggested they had no absolute basis from which to fight it, and neither you, nor anyone else, has offered any.

<< Deny Genesis as a literal account of creation, and you have no basis to consider things like pedophilia to be wrong. >>

Your words again, but those are much closer. If you have such a basis, please divulge it, or admit you have none.
