- I've always suspected that other people's powers of ESP are
- far superior to my own, but in general I have no idea of what
- someone's motives are for posting something in alt.atheism.
-
- So I just address what's posted, and if it's silly, as most of
- this "Proof for God" stuff seems to be, that's what I say.
-
- I certainly don't go through some "This is so silly that it must
- have been posted for sympathetic comments and so I shouldn't
- comment on it ..." kind of second-guessing.

-
- I disagree with your patronizing evaluation of why people replied
- to the posting in question. Still fine?
