I automatically see the truth through divine inspiration.

About this bobby, you said the theist and the atheist are absolute fools, so if you are not an absolute fool you must be an agnostic, so where does the agnostic sit with respect to this divinity you claim inspires you?
What is it? Or are you really an absolute fool.

I'm confused, Reverend Bob. When you say "my interpretation", were you using your brain, or did you

If so, how is it your interpretation?

Reverend Bob, I really think you should give your own brain a chance; I find it hard to believe that it could be less compelling than whatever divinity is inspiring you.

Is it possible to talk to your divinity directly, or must I go through you, Reverend Bob? Either way, I'd like to ask her/him/it why they must communicate with the world at large through someone who is effectively a mindless drone. Don't you think you are being used? When is the last time you had a thought of your own, Reverend Bob?

How can you possibly dismiss divine revelation? Rejecting it is up to you, but dismissing it is foolhardy at best.

I'm confused Reverend Bob. Am I talking to Bob Evenson or the divinity that speaks through him?

Jesus Christ, nobody talks to a divinity, and a divinity isn't going to talk to you. The best you can do is talk to somebody like me who is divinely inspired.

Divinely inspired by what bobby?

You don't know shit about philosophy, religion or anything else as far as I can see. I don't even know what the fuck you're doing here.

Internut anthropology.

So far I've notice some defining features of the internut; extreme confirmation bias, selective reading, a complete inability to answer sentences with question marks and a tendency to use excessive fonts and formatting. There are others but they vary according to the internut species on display.

Its mainly an amusing pastime but can be depressing at times, if one is on a Philosophy forum that is.

Unfortunately for you bobby I do and I've got a bit of paper that says so.

religion or anything else as far as I can see. ...

But you can't see further than your monomania? Still, I'll give you religion as it is true I'm not a godbotherer.

About that bobby, you said atheists and theists are absolute fools so are you an agnostic? If so where does this divine influence come from? Or could you please say what you mean by 'divinely inspired'?

I don't even know what the fuck you're doing here.

See previous post.

I'm still not clear, Reverend Bob. If your words are divinely inspired, are they mediated by your brain, or do they by-pass it completely? In other words, is what you write pure divine inspiration, or is some of it corrupted by the brain of Bob Evenson? If everything you say is divinely inspired, I must say, your divinity says 'fucking' a lot. If not, how can we trust anything you write to be properly divine?

Well then, get the fuck out of here!
