    But its a necropost. The mods need to actually start enforcing posting rules, everything from Kali's old coffeehouse posting rules to double posting and necroposting.

    Why not? There's a clear precedent. Many clear precedents.

    If it doesn't get locked then lets take necroposting out of the rules. Its a stupid rule, because it needlessly creates site clutter and takes up server space I'd imagine.

    Guys stay on topic. SOooooo, can we all agree that religous fundamentalists who believe the world will end before the end of the century are bad?

    If it contributes to the discussion then it doesn't violate the rules.

    Probably because they're losing the argument.

    Seems that way. Glad the mods do not lock everything when someone says lock it.

    Somebody deleted family guy argument so looks like I actually have to make an argument. Wait no I don't I have other people for that.
    “Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
    Then he is not omnipotent.
    Is he able, but not willing?
    Then he is malevolent.
    Is he both able and willing?
    Then whence cometh evil?
    Is he neither able nor willing?
    Then why call him God?”

    I have been thinking, maybe this idea is ludicrous, that even if you're a self-proclaimed atheist, there is still something you worship. Idolize maybe is the better word, but its not the word on the positive side here. It doesn't have to a divine entity like God or Brahma. Maybe you feel only good with success or your self image, just like pleasing a God. You see, modern idoltry, while not to some Baal, is to yourself. Materialism to build better high-esteem and egos, you see yourself as more successful with a sports car or a huge mansion. Maybe that makes you dwandle and be addicted in drugs and pornography. Just my opinion here, you don't have to just worship something in a religion...
