Well yeah, but that's just for one game, the Polish national does get this flash of genius once in five years or so, but other than that...

I didnt say your knowledge and wisdom,I meant my own.Dont jump to generalised assumptions!
How can I learn from,or understand your position if I agree with you?Having done this set-play before I know that very few will react to my probing with the reasoned tenacity that you display! I care not if I drive people away with my rhetoric,that is partly my intent.I dont want to hear the usual "that's what I believe,now leave it" platitudes or "I know why i believe in God ,but I'm not gouing to share it with you".I am not the least bit interested in those sentiments I want to hear reasoned argument.I am an Atheist,but I am very interested as to what underpins Faith in what,to me,is something totally tenuous,but ethereal.
Now then,I understand your belief in God,what I still cannot ascertain is the reasons for your belief in :
a) Jesus Christ as God b) The Holy Spirit c) oh yes,Adam and Eve and Noah's Ark.
A watershed.I am obviously still waiting for a clarification on point c) so how about dealing with that one,please.

So...if you happen to, let's say, get upset and begin cursing, do you use God's name when doing so ?
Don't misunderstand me, I'm not suggesting that you DO. Nor is my question intended to provoke another argument...
I'm doing a research project of sorts...
