It doesn't faze me, either. I'm too much of an arrogant SOB to care about most people's opinions of me. Especially someone like Claus.
Reporting his is probably a lost cause, though. He has a special set of rules applied to him here. Probably because of Skeptic Report. Rank has its privileges, I guess.
I'm curious if Claus talks to people at TAM to their faces the way he does here. I seriously doubt he does.
I asked for proof you've lived in America, not proof that you have nothing else to contribute but endless .gif images.
So how about it, Claus? Surely this should be a simple matter for you.

I already explained the difference to you.
Well...duuuuh, what else do you think a pending case is? You asked and I answered; if you don't like the answer then ask better questions.
What's the difference?
Indeed, you provided opinions and I offer facts. I think people are judging quite nicely.
I think this ties into the difference between religious and religion so I will wait for your answer to that question before proceeding with this issue.
This is patently not true. Smearing JREF this way is not exactly productive for an open, honest debate. But I suppose you have your reasons.
Strange comment, coming from someone who has me on ignore (Or, at least claim he has).
Don't play word games. I'm not here to teach you your native language.
No, it doesn't. Referring to God and claiming that it isn't religious is similar to claim that war is peace. It's Orwellian Double-Speak. Double-thinking.

It's fine if you can't answer the question, I'll put it on a pile of all the other topics you dead-ended and then simply started insulting people over it.
Let's say I believe that Universe was set in motion by some supernatural being, a god if you will, for which I have no evidence. What religion am I? Simple question.
If that is your best shot, then I submit that you don't have much to hang your hat on.
You could be any religion. That's what religions do: Try to explain the creation of the universe by supernatural force. I can't even come up with a religion that doesn't do this.

How else should I respond to your refusal to answer questions? I am trying to be diplomatic but I don't enjoy constant insults Claus.
So may I deduce that this has been your entire argument that because you see us claiming to derrive our rights from a supernatural being that we are a religious country?
You can take it any which way you want it.
Huh? The US is a religious country. The vast majority of people are religious. There are religious references all over the place, even in government. Do you really deny this?

I take it that you can't carry an argument with out insulting people. Maybe one day you will be more mature.
This is where culture and language come into play Claus. I am not playing semantic games when I say that a Religious country is different than a country with Religious people.Huh? The US is a religious country. The vast majority of people are religious. There are religious references all over the place, even in government. Do you really deny this?
Religion does not dictate our laws or way of life. While there are some places in USA where religion mixes a bit too much when taken to court this is usally resolved with religion being removed from government.
But if you keep claiming that our government is religious then it's simply not true, doesn't matter if you post it 30 more times. You simply have no evidence for it.

Especially if that claim is based on a few errant references to an ambiguous god that were mostly placed there for non-religious reasons, when you simultaneously claim that Denmark's government is not religious despite support for a specific religion is written into Denmark's constitution.
Wait, you say you show up for all 3 TAMs, and you say he's the one smearing JREF?
Maybe you should take a good look at this recent thread.
Then, have the decency to admit you were wrong.
You can claim that. I have provided my evidence. People can judge for themselves.
You have to realize that the Danish government is not religious.
You are dead wrong here. Really, really wrong.
Feel free to contact JREF to hear if I am smearing JREF.
I'll wager that you won't dare ask.

I looked at it and there's nothing about apologizing for insulting people on this thread.
Yes and they have judged for themselves, and you keep ignoring them.
Maybe you will have the decency to admit you are wrong.

To review:
Images of Moses with commendments: Religious
God on money: Religious
God in the pledge: Religious
State-supports and state-funded church with a monarch that belongs to the church and constitutionally runs the government: NOT RELIGIOUS. ZOMG YOU ARE SO WRONG
Gotcha.
Tell me, what is the weather like in your bizzaro world; is it raining god money or secular tokens?
The Danish government is not religious. Get it through your thick skull.
Sheeesh.........
I hate to admit it, but this insistence that the Danish government is religious underlines my criticism of Americans being disturbingly ignorant of non-American matters. Willingly ignorant, even.
The Danish government is not religious.
Danish kids are not taught to be religious.
Keep claiming otherwise, and you prove my point.
