Actually, my claim wasn't solely that a purple horse exists, but that there are more of them than there are black horses, which was my attempt to encapsulate the absurdity of the claims of God's existence, not the potential for the existence of such an entity.

And no God impacts upon everything within my perception; it is the bizzare interference of those who believe in such an entity that impact on my perceptive.

Talking If you cannot take criticism, the gospel road is no place for you.

You dont help your cause and by your own religious leanings, you'd realise that (atleast according to the NT) Jesus didnt 'preech' the same way you do. You dont debate or justify your position with reason, merely quoting one passage after another. Perhaps if you tried to explain and defend your view people will listen to you more seriously. For right now, most here view you as a looney talking to himself.

I'm sorry, but did you criticise me and I didn't notice or was that said because you feel that you should expect criticism by living in the gospel road?
And what road could anyone possibly live in that involved any other human being and yet involved no criticism.

That's like saying "He doesn't suffer fools gladly."
Who does?
"Are you a fool? Great! Come on in, have a cup of honey, but be careful of the fool in the corner with the jam sprinkler. Oh how we laughed."

Perhaps a better quote would be "If you can't take criticism it's probably best to avoid any kind of contact with any other sentient being."

You do yourself and your religion no favours, Dr. James.
