Subj : Just Checking :-) To : KEVIN GIBSON From : RICHARD M. MEIC Date : Mon Jul 30 2001 07:42 pm LL> As for this conference, any and all posts I make will be from a LL> philosophical perspective rather than from a theological perspective. LL> The methods I use will be philosophical methods, not theological LL> methods, the arguments and conclusions philosophical and not LL> theological. LL> LL> Any and all discussion on and about theology will be made in a religion LL> conference, not in this conference (except where discussion pertains as LL> to what comprises theology as opposed to philosophy). I'm going to assume that someone will jump out of the background and accuse me of causing this particular conclusion. Or am I just being justifiably paranoid? -> I didn't receive any replies to the 6 posts I made to you on July 23. -> Would you check the bulletin boards you're visiting to verify? I am sorry for not replying to your post(s). I lost interest. Too much trash in here. Don't worry, it's not your or Lee's fault. -> Richard and others have objected to theological discussions here, -> whereas I and others have forced the issue on occasion. Some of -> the exchanges in the past got quite heated. I understand his desire -> to avoid discussing theology. Avoid discussing theology? I'm sorry, but I'll have to correct you a little... I am sick of theology. I felt that everyone deserved the unflowered truth of it. -> I think Richard is an atheist. I'm not. We've managed to have some -> interesting conversations notwithstanding our differences of opinion -> and belief. I do and always have appreciated your words. You have never dealt me ill, never spoke in overly obese language, never ignored my satements, never given me the outward appearence of kindness and appreciation in order to drive a blade in my back later. You Kevin have earned my respect well. -> I think Richard objected to your reference to the Bible -> story of "the tree" regarding "knowledge of good and evil." You know me well. --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5 * Origin: Try Our Web Based QWK: DOCSPLACE.ORG (1:18/140) .
