Unless you know absolutely everything, don't even think of doubting your testimony. After all, there surely must be something that really does support this stuff, and after skimming several thousand books, I'm still looking for it. Please join me in the search.


I didn't hear anything on the video that implies one shouldn't "even think of doubting your testimony". I heard nowhere where he claimed to skim "several thousand" books. He claims to have read a few thousand books.

I don't agree with his apologetics and yet, I don't understand where some of these comments are coming from, Trevor. Sarcasm doesn't supply an accurate representation.

He's a guy taking his shot.

I think you might be surprised to find that he deals with much on an allegorical level. Kerry is a real seeker, who dabbles in everything from Tarot to Kabbalah in his search for spiritual wisdom. One of the things that makes Kerry so interesting is his open mind. I would wager the problem that he has with critics is what he perceives to be their closed-minded, literalist attitudes about things.

Jersey, have you lost your sense of humor recently?

Trevor, there are only a few posters whose minds I can read on the screen and none of them are you.
:-P

Well, it's not like I haven't tried, Trevor. I just keep getting bad reception.

All I know is it's definitely you, Trevor. It's never me.

I have a spare hat, if you want one.

Kerry seems like the kind of guy who pans for gold.
