    This quote answers the question for me:

    “But once divinity of doctrine has been questioned there is no return to perfect faith.”

    And just because of that, Teary gets the impression that this forum isn't worth his time. Peace out.

    I think Teary finally got something right.

    Outlaw still can't read or understand the concepts of "scholarly reference" and "single terms having multiple definitions depending on the context."

    Teary can`t make up his own definitions for a word..

    Teary can`t say he`s not talking about religion,then use religious references to make his point..

    It makes Teary look Nuts..

    And it makes Outlaw look like (forgive the language) a complete idiot.

    Does he really not understand the difference between secular STUDY OF religion and religious teaching itself?

    All the more reason to not waste time on forums like this...

    The intellectual and academic level of this forum is just a constant dissappointment to Teary.
    He has repeatedly and consistenty stated that he is using the SOCIOLOGICAL defintion of apostasy, not the RELIGIOUS definition.........Teary

    Teary isn`t talking about Religion,when Teary talks about Religion..

    Teary remains confused..

    Teary needs to go to the Vet..

    Reference to oneself in the third person is common among children desiring to attribute qualities of fantasy to themselves when engaging the imagination.

    Similarly, in adults, reference to oneself in the third person enables a perceptive duality whereby the individual feels distanced from their behavior or speech
    psychologically relieving them of the full degree of responsibility and the evasion of possible consequences for that behavior or speech. - Human Psychology 101.
    Not unlike the mechanisms associated with CD perhaps?.....Sizemik

    It's hilarious isn't it? Perhaps Teary's a little 'beside himself'

    God I love this Forum . . . it makes Comedy Inc seem like a wake.
