Reply #11: Did I ever say that ? You said you can tell by their actions.

In my book, these people demonstrated in their actions what they wrote and spoke about. also I think you can deduce what John Paul I am speaking of. And so you are saying that any child who grew up during WW2 is a Nazi today? Is that correct. And if that had any bearing on anything then it would stand to reason that John Paul would have considered Benedict an enemy because of what the Nazis did to the Poles during the war. The greatest mass atrocities in all of history were carried out by atheists, but do I think all atheists subscribe to that type of behavior? No. Incidentally, faith is not about ignoring evidence. It's about considering a broader range of evidence or interpreting it differently than does an atheist, ie. positivism vs. ontological + teleological + empiricm + rationalism. The latter reveals much more than the former epistemology.
