This. I think it's bad form for the mods and especially the owner to be so unneutral.
Following on from Alcar's post; are you actually suggesting that we must play the neutral mediator in any discussion? We did not attack scrabtrapman; in every post we were responding to a specific point that he had made.

I say "But we don't know the truth that's the thing." Because a lot of people don't, I do. Again, that's all down to believing in the word of God not arrogance.
I think that people have been a bit unfair labelling you as arrogant, but you do definitely need to learn the difference between knowledge and belief. I'm talking as someone who used to be a heartfelt believer in my religion and is now a self-described believer in atheism.

Frankly, the biggest problem in the way that you present yourself here is that you tell us with absolute confidence that you know that the afterlife exists, but also say that Genesis was just a metaphor. How can you possibly hold those two thoughts at the same time?

T-Nex, science and religion both prove the sun will rise tomorrow
If you forced an astronomer to give an entirely truthful and non-flippant answer, he would not tell you that the sun will definately rise tomorrow. He would tell you that based on thousands of years of history and models that have otherwise proved accurate, the balance of probability is that the sun will rise.
