Blog Burnout

I apologize for not posting this earlier, as some of you may have wondered what had happened to me (okay, I know none of you really did) =). In all sincerity, I had every intent of responding to the discussion topics that were raised, but found myself burned out. I suppose anyone who has embarked upon the journey of graduate work can empathize. Therefore, it wasn't because the atheistic worldview delivered a death blow to the theistic perspective, as some of you have presumptuously purported. With papers, research, and exams crying out for my attention, I found that I was spending way too much time on this. I suppose it was inevitable that someone who would write nearly 20 pages on one single post would be burned-out. My procrastination to respond led to my disinterest. For that, I apologize. I must admit that I am torn. I want to continue to discuss some of the topics that were raised, but am exhausted at the thought of how much work I would have to put into it. Nevertheless, I will move past my distaste for ostensible gratuitous debate and will remain open to any discussion you want to have. However, this time, I hope to pace myself=).

Real Life happens :D

I looked back a few times and for some reason did it again just now and saw your post. :P

I agree though that all those pages you wrote a) couldn't have been fun and b) didn't do your cause much good either - I skipped most of it

If you keep it simple and to the point we'd be able to discuss things far easier and maybe reach some consensus

I could never change your mind and you sure can't change my mind back to xtianity - that would take some real evidence which has not been forthcoming for 2000 years

What do you think about the new planet and what does it mean in context with your views on religion?

Short and sweet are the best ways to keep interest. :D

Good luck with all your school work.

How about a post about the validity of the Great Flood story. :D
