when they killed Zarqawi

The obvious difference Peter being that catholics represent their beliefs as matters of faith. Strange that so many have such difficulty with such a simple distinction.

For your edification here is an example of the difference.

"I believe one day BluePeter will be able to discern the difference between matters of faith and statements of fact."

The above is a belief. It is based on an unevidenced faith that one day even you will mature enough intellectually to understand that there is a difference between representing something as a provable fact as opposed to an issue of faith.

"BluePeter doesn't comorehend the difference between facts and faith"

That's a fact which can be evidenced, unlike a belief in God, by the your post quoted above.

Sure Jersey, whatever you say. If you want to continue posting and contradicting your own logic in thread after thread, have at it. That along with your ridiculous superiority complex reflects very well on you and the ilk you deign to represent.

By the way, rhetorical question for you. What kind of a loser is so desperate for gratification, acceptance and validation that he gets banned from an Internet chat board and then comes back under a pseudonym?

P.S. - If you cannot see that believers intertwine facts and faith to support what they purport to be fact i.e. their religious dogma, you're even more deficient than I thought.

You're being your usual knee jerk self. You need to start taking some anti E's

The issue of intertwining fact and faith is absurd.

It is commonly understood by everyone involved that belief in God is a matter of faith. It can't be proven. That doesn't make it invalid. Just unprovable. It is properly reserved for those matters to which the answer cannot be known.

Thinking your child might still be alive after he or she has gone missing is a matter of faith. Thinking your child is still alive when the body is lying in the casket in front of you is a delusion.

Seperately whether or not a child was or wasn't present in the building is a knowable question. To claim one was, in contradiction of all updated reports, and with no basis for the belief, is equally a delusion.

These aren't difficult concepts except apparently to you and those like you.
