don-i seem to recall that you did call yourself a christian sometime on the previous thread but i am willing to admit mistakes, and if you find having some kind of christian belief offensive,it was unintentionally so.
if you recheck my last post you will i hope notice i used the word "appear"
the object of the use of this word was intended to indicate that i did not charge you with being an atheist but with pursueing arguments that atheists would use.
on that post i indicated the eternality of God by 3 texts.you latched on to the 1st two asking when the "beginning" was.the 3rd text read "from everlasting to everlasting".
sorry if you dont read that as meaning "eternal"but that is how i understand it.
i was presuming that you would believe God[the maufacturer!]was eternal but i am at a loss as to how you would describe him.
of course it is your perogative to be vague should you wish.
best wishes    pete.
