James is our SME on organized religion. I know, because
I went to his bible study workshops for several years. He can
put the fear of God into the staunchest atheist. :-)

Yes, I have an interest in the historical, cultural and psychological
effects of religion because it has a great effect on human existence.

I have in my possession a 13 minute video that I recorded
at your house during the 19 October 2019 bible meeting.
In the video you threatened everyone in attendance with
eternal damnation in the fires of hell if we refused to give
you $100 that evening, and to pledge $500/month for all
remaining months of our wretched lives!

You were spitting and screaming, while holding a
Saint James Bible up. The Trump necktie you had on was
too long, and you kept stepping on it which drew out the
veins in your eyes. 6 other members of hfx.general were
there and will testify to the accuracy of the video.

Is that enough evidence? :-)

James, James, James! Is your memory shot? You made
us pay for producing 1000s of DVDs of that sermon. Recall
that you were selling them for $59.99. In addition to your
$89.98 Saint James (who else?) bibles you printed in China
for $2? I can’t imagine you sold all of them, even though
Carter and Jack each bought 25 of each to take home to
their gay friends.

And you want ME to send you a link? Get your wife to
bring one in from the cases you still have in the garage. Put
it in your DVD player and refresh your memory. In the worst
case, ask Jack to send you a copy from Texas.

This was a classic recording, and thousands of copies are
in your flock's possession. Have Jack or Carter ever refused
to do anything you asked? :-)

You know darn well everyone left on this newsgroup was
at your bible meeting that night and have both a DVD of your
sermon and one or more of your Chinese bibles. I thought
you were forced to shut down your ministry because CRA
revoked your tax free status.

If you still are running it either under the table or if you
somehow got your tax number back from CRA, count me out.
I got away from my childhood cult only to be sucked into
your sect. I’ve ditched that one too, and you want me to help
you make more money? That ain’t happening. You are on
your own!

Maybe ask Jack to hook you up with one of those mega
evangelical outfits in Texas. He owes you after you helped
him infiltrate the Boy Scouts. Sheesh. Call in some favours.

Facts can be demonstrated. So demonstrate. :)

Eh? How (or even why) would a person demonstrate a
fact? Look at these facts:

(1) Water is wet.
(2) Trump is a rotten person.
(3) James Warren is a religious nut.
(4) Mike Spencer is a great artisan blacksmith.
(5) Jack Walsh is a bigot.
(6) Wars kill people.
(7) John A MacDonald was Canada’s first PM.
(8) Climate Change is real.
(9) Men have walked on the moon.
(10) Recently there was a big flood in Spain.

Facts exist independently of belief or demonstration, as
their truth is inherent and not contingent on proof. :-)

Some of those are facts. Some are opinions.

A recorded event is easily demonstrated. So, demonstrate. :)

(A) Which are facts and which are opinions? I am of the
view that they are all facts.

(B) Since they are all facts, then they are inherently true
and do not rely on proof or demonstration to validate their
existence.

They may all be true but that is unknowable without demonstration. :)

That statement conflates the recognition of a fact with

If something is true but unknowable without

it can be currently proven; demonstration only serves
to make it known, not to define its truth. :-)

Didn't watch it but it is irrelevant. You made truth claims which you
also claimed to know were true. You failed to demonstrate how you knew
them to be true, so your truth claim has not been verified.

You are trying to convince a MAGA sycophant that he was
wrong to donate money to Trump. You are pissing into the

Surrender? I was simply telling axemen99 that directing

Republican supporters like you. :-)

It is true that we may not know something is true until it

knowledge or ability to demonstrate it.

There are literally thousands of DVDs of that sermon
you preached in existence. YOU made us buy a load of
them at that infamous bible meeting where you scared
the bejesus out of us. You also made us give you $100s
to distribute your nonsense worldwide. The proof is
everywhere and you know it! :-)

If demonstrating it is easy, then the demonstration merely

fact was already true beforehand. :-)

Funny you look up to Al Smith. Sounds like your role

understand why you spent decades mocking religious
believers, when you are a closet religious nut yourself.

Could it be that you and Al Smith are one and the same?
That would be funny, because if so, you fooled us all. :-)

Nice try, but you’re dodging the point by dragging in
‘Demibeee.’ First it was Al Smith, now this? Let’s be honest.
You are just projecting your own woo-woo phase and giving
it a name.
