Moi had a few entries that criticized Dennett, including one about how Dennett didn't deserve his doctorate or something.

I used to not bother to point out answers to their argument because I felt like that was beyond the scope.<br /><br />It was this real emotional atheists who used to make comments all the itme. I can't remember his name it may have been Larry. He was real upset over everything.<br /><br />He started saying "you never answers anything." That's when I decided to start always giving an answer to their arguments even if was just in passing.

He probably never checked out your DOXA or Religious A Priori sites. <br /><br />And, according to him, what are those stronger arguments? Are they even out there, or is that just more propaganda from him and his buddies at the sec web?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
