Now, I told myself, Roy, don't bother, this guy is so closed minded that it's a waste
of time to post on this stuff anymore. But I'm sorry. This one is too priceless. After
laughing until my sides hurt, and wiping away the tears, all I can say is this is
exactly what I would expect from you olcott. If you can't deal with something, you
ignore it. Obviously, QC, Paul, and I have some real differences, but I'll give them
this: they are thinking, and at least responding to points made for a position, or
against their own. That's what intellectual discussion is all about. But to ignore
something because you don't know how to deal with it is... well, it's what I have come
to expect from you.

It is also interesting to note that is called the god of this world. But that doesn't
say anything about Christ, who is God incarnate.

As such appears to you. Or, in other words, you practice eisegesis, not exegesis. You
read into the text what you wish it to say, not seek to derive out of the text what the
author intended to say. In still other words, you are your own god. Don't expect us to
bow before you.

Snort, choke, chortle. Too bad you can't comprehend how ignorant you are.
