Lorax, I think your knee-jerk opposition to anything Bats says has clouded your judgement in this instance. His position is essentially the same as yours: One cannot reach rational conclusions based upon mythology and mysticism.
By that same rationale, I could interpret the writings in Aesop's Fables as a basis for religion, or pick and choose what pleases me from Chilton's automotive manuals for as much as the Bible has any relation to the world around us.
Just because a thousand lemmings follow one over the cliff, doesn't make it right, or the only way.

Lorax, stop trying to rekindle your argument. Bait your hooks, nobody is biting.
This is how I know you're a female. Most men would have dropped your lame argument two weeks ago. And any decent person would have realized, "hey I'm insulting people with my ignorance", Not you, you just keep grinding away. Grind on..
I know you are, but what am I?.
Elganned, I don't automatically go on defensive when something is posted by someone that I have known to be in disagreement with in the past. It is based on the content of the argument being put forth by that person at that time...witness my agreements with Stashmoo recently.
You've just described my marriage to betterhalf.The reception is also trivial. The value is to enter a committed relationship where common values are pursued, very often including having children. Of course, not every moment is blissful [[if it is, something is very wrong), but having a soulmate with whom you share mutual love and respect is one of the most rewarding accomplishments possible in this life.
Actually, you might try a little outrage once in a while, ususally you put people to sleep.Elganned, I don't automatically go on defensive when something is posted by someone that I have known to be in disagreement with in the past.

Your posts are definitely a Zona Comatosa.
I see Lorax is taking a new approach with me. Lame attempt.
BTW, how is that book you promised to read going?
