ByhenryOK, that’s a really creative title. That’s why I used it. It is in no way because I couldn’t think of a good theme today. Well, maybe a little. On third thought, quite a bit. OK, so i couldn’t think of a creative theme. Christian Apologetics Jason Hughey presents Suicidal Apologetics posted at Logical Consistency….
Brilliant last line! – Love it – thanks.
