	Tim Maroney did a good job at proving how wise man thinks he is,
	when he is really a fool.

"He who calls another fool shall be liable to the hellfire"... Tim's
article dealt with God.  The claim that it was only to show "how
wise man really thinks he is" is an expression of your need to deride
the opponents of your God... not an expression of the truth.

Above all, God represents the truth.... and how many falsehoods have
been perpetrated in his name....

	I know someone who will (literaly) dispose of him at the
	proper time, that's not my job.

But you seem to derive enormous satisfaction from the thought of your
intellectual enemies burned to a crisp.  That's blood-thirsty
revenge.... not forgiveness or an attitude of understanding.

No its not your job.... but what would you say if God said, "Tim's
article was well put together and done in the spirit of honest
questioning... while YOU (you slime you vermin) cared only to
suck up to me.... damned art thou!"
