I'm sorry, I'm not willing to surrender my mind to reasoning that goes "The Bible is True Because It Says So." If you can call me a "fundamentalist" than it is a commitment to the fundamentals of rational thinking.

Unsurprising that a reactionary such as yourself would call me out without understanding what I actually said.

Reactionary? :lol:

I don't know which is funnier- mistaking obvious satire as "fundamentalism",
or pretending a PANTHEIST is not a theist.

It isn't. We can argue semantics all day long, but that doesn't have any bearing on reality.
