You asked me to re-read the earlier posts which I did. DA was ranting about the sacred and ultimate ‘truth’, and if you disregard that ‘truth’ it’s a recipe for degeneration (meaning yours truly), and the usual condemnations found in his daily sermons... I presume by scared 'truth' he means Christ and his message… So I merely pointed out that truth is relative. It’s his truth but it means nothing to me, nor does it effect my life now or when I'm dead and buried. If I don't subscribe to his truth or the christian message, I don't expect to degenerate. Far from it, I'd say I'm doing rather well without basing my life around an ancient man or book. But then again, who's to say? Maybe I am a degenerate after all. The truth is in the eye of the beholder.

i have said nothing that is closely related to what you are inferring, which goes to show the depth of the problems you have with truth.
but you got me curious. explain to me how did you understand what you have written above from my posts, which i copied below, i am really curious to see how your mind operates.
the reality of the matter is very simple, anyone who harbors an ill will for another, let alone end another person's life, has strayed away from Christ. this is a universally established truth about the Christian faith.
it then follows that using people such as georges bush and many others in order to pass a general verdict on Christianity is, simply put, an act of vile malice, and though it is by far less nauseous than ending a life, it is a still quite a repugnant aggression against truth.
the fundamental issue comes down to this, could there be any positive outcome to a dialogue with someone who does not subscribe to any notion of truth? and the answer to this one is rather obvious. some people simply have no truth in them.
truth is sacred by all the standards that lift mankind up and enable the evolution of our intellectual faculties. your disregard for truth is a recipe not only for degeneration, but also for devolution. the fact that you are oblivious to the above makes almost all the discussions you are involved in all the more pathetic and futile, regardless of whether your maiming and twisting of truths and facts is intentional or not.
do not worry though, you may be under the wrong impression that you are unique and that you are an evolutionary icon stepping where those adhering to truth have never laid foot before. the reality however is that you are neither. the fact is that you are a very common type. there is more of you than one would care to count, and that has always been the case across all ages, however they rarely leave any traces, rarely manage to induce an impact, and rarely deliver anything that others can build upon. this must be what is deluding you into believing that the path you have set yourself up on has not been threaded before by countless others.
doesn't matter, everything that mankind has ever accomplished has been based on the honest communication of truth between people who believe in it and respect it.
