I agree completely and you make an important observation that I had not completely considered.
My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

Very perceptive. I think it offended Satan greatly to see God loving physical creatures and calling them children.

And important point which cannot be emphasized enough. Tokens for your other posts and rebuttals on this thread as well. Has skepticism ever had a more eloquent and benevolent (not bitter) spokesman? As always, a joy to read.

"Be that as it may, what skeptics like For_The_Kingdom are looking for, I think, is evidence for any kind of process that accounts for the fact that the purported ancient reptilian ancestor of birds is qualitatively distinct from birds in various unmistakable ways – simply by virtue of being not a bird. The basic question is: how do non-birds give rise to birds? (Or if you prefer: what evidence is there that populations of birds would tend to naturally emerge from populations of non-birds?"

Wow. You've nailed it. Never have anyone so accurately depicted my position on this subject matter.
You got two choices; either swallow blood, or swallow pride. I am a grown man, I will DIE before I swallow mine. Catch him at his school, and turn his college into COLUMBINE.

Just what do you do with all your points?
I will never understand how someone who claims to know the ultimate truth, of God, believes they deserve respect, when they cannot distinguish it from a fairy-tale.

You know, science and logic are hard: Religion and fairy tales might be more your speed.

To continue to argue for the Hebrew invention of God is actually an insult to the very concept of a God. - Divine Insight

Bang on. This is 'news' precisely because of the widespread cover up.
