Never saw this before you linked it recently, so Thanks for that.

But I'm getting really tired of being overly impressed by you, so I'll just say... holy crap, that's great.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

I'm envious of Darth J's intellect and will. God, if I had half of both I'd be the Man.

What a great list.

Splitting hairs here but articles of faith deal more with core beliefs--"We believe that . . ."

Most of the articles in this list focus on a well-trodden track record of apologetic practices.

Kudos to Darth J for a thoughtful and insightful list though!

Beliefs lead to practices... (well, unless you're why me).

Or maybe for the apologists it's practices lead to beliefs. Chicken and egg.

Given recent discussions concerning The History of the Late War between the United States and Great Britain, I felt this would be a particularly appropriate time to bump this thread and remind everyone how our research at Cassius University continues to be ahead of the curve, while our apologist friends are perpetually doing little more than attempts at damage control.
