    Hi Virgil,

    If I've shown you or your religion and disrespect, perceived or real, then you have my apologies. As an agnostic, I feel I have no cause to disrespect anyone's beliefs.

    It is true that the topics here are supposed to relate to 'Religious Texts'. It seems like most of the threads end up in creator vs. no creator discussions. And, because this would seem to be the single most important question a being can ask it naturally becomes a little heated. I think sometimes we think that one party who disagrees strongly with our ideas is being disrespectful. I'd wager that the other party feels the same. It seems like most of us are trying to convince ourselves that we understand the nature of the universe more than the next person.

    A while back you told me I was being hostile to others. I took that to heart, apologized, and refrained from posting for several months. This time I'm not sure it is I you are referring to in your post. If it is, let me know and I'll hibernate again.

    Cheers,
    Doug

    Most if not all the posts here are mirrors of users' minds.
    Some live without knowing why they live, they just know they were born. Others have such a black view of life... and scuse me for that but alot also talk only because they want to talk, they feel they are useless and cant give any thing useful.
    Some are really serious and dont want to waste their life running after their body requests, but want to "live really" and they are FEW.

    Such thread we must take it more seriously, it shows your view of life and who are you really not what is Jesus peace be upon him really.
