		<description>Not a single, solitary shred of credibility.

It's no wonder he doesn't look at comments, it reminds him that his head is but an echo chamber.

And he won't even post his video game high-scores.</description>

		<description>"You were supposed to get back to me over a week ago on some proof for the Bible being myth."

That may be because I've been up north for a week, without internet, and the post has been offscreen for a few days. However, I shall respond with pleasure here. 

Just to refresh readers' memory, I had asserted that Bible contained myths. You asked me to "prove" that. Noting that neither you nor I could go back in time, I asked what in your opinion would constitute a "myth".  

I suggested the following criteria:

- Pre-existence of a Biblical narrative in other cultures, predating the Bible account; - Contradiction between biblical narratives;
- Definitively, physically impossible events. 

So - just to be clear - you would accept these as proof?</description>

		<description>Ah, hell.  I will take a stab at this and here is my disclaimer: I do not give a damn what anybody thinks!  [How is that for encouraging others to post follow-up comments? eh?]  

In my opinion, here is a Big Mistake:  the &lt;a href="http://www.crtc.gc.ca/"&gt;Canadian Radio-television and
Telecommunications Commission&lt;/a&gt; telling us what to do. 


Matthew, I you do not like government education, do not attend it.</description>

		<description>dalton, if I'm not mistaken (and I did check on this just now) you were supposed to get back to me over a week ago on some proof for the Bible being myth.  With all due respect, you've been the one selectively choosing when to debate the past year.  As for me, I was just stating a fact and one that is out of my control due to other obligations.</description>

		<description>You don't bother to read your comments? Why bother blogging then? And why should anyone bother commenting? Or reading your stuff. Buh bye.</description>

		<description>"I ask that you leave me a comment (I don’t read them much these days anymore, but I’ll make an exception here)"

Ah. Thanks for this expression of interest and respect for the folks who take the time to respond to your posts. I mistakenly assumed you had some interest in discussion. 

I won't waste your time any further.</description>
