If you actually READ what I have posted, how can you ask these questions??? I answered them! And I am not offended. Don't project this onto me. I have been dealing with this issue a long time. It is grievous yes, but to their own Master they stand or fall.

Since my point was that the very questions asked betray the assertion that books from our side have been read, I refer people to STUDY the answers and where they can be found. These questions are not answered in little sound bites. They require time and detail.

And if Steve did actually read from the authors I listed, then the answers to his questions were already known to him, so why ask? Answers to his questions have been in print for a LOOOOOONG time, its not uncommon. To me its simply a diversion.

The answers have not been print HERE, where the discussion is taking place. Not everyone here has the books you mentioned, and it is for the benefit of these participants that theis discussion exists. If you don't want to let them know why they should give any credit to your points, then don't complain when no one finds you convincing.

It is ridiculous to say "just read the books—it's all in there" about a topic that has been debated back and forth in the literature for years. Why don't you just read the books against your position? Then we could just leave this discussion un discussed!

Why don't you just post the names and authors of the books you want people to read, what side of the issue they stand on, any maybe what specific material is covered. 100 may be a bit much to start with, but put up the ones you got the most out of first. This may encourage people more than your first post.
