hi Tabitha,

here, here ... i'll drink to that!
And !
How come evolution doesn't Prove creation ?>
> Nice to see you here on social Jimi >thank you! ... it's nice to be so nicely seen ... ... i also do some faith too ... but i still have a weak place for the lex thread ...

> What do you mean by being all buddhist about it? What would the buddhist response be? >i don't know really ... that was mostly buddhist bluster brought on by getting "sent" here from faith ... i can work myself up into a buddhist lather and then just see who can dance to the dharma 2-step ... ... i was going to wing it ... ... not real buddhistic of me .
... shouldn't neurotheists' faith be a respected belief system? ... mercury Was posting about "prescription enlightenment" ... i'd 'ave thought neuotheology would have been right up his alley ... that's if Merc were still around ...
so we may give our Dr. Bob the credit for this visit to social ... but it is because neurotheology doesn't get the credit to rate being at faith ...
(and with a lot of bluster, he goes, "Hurrumph!!")
maybe i got it out of my system now ....
