Recently my good friend and colleague Fritz decided to take an exit:
I've debated religious evangelists for decades, and such disappearances on their part are almost always the result of the debates. I do my best to argue my case in good faith, and when it appears that none of their arguments hold water, they beat a hasty retreat never to be heard from again. My guess is that they cannot concede that they are wrong and give up the battle knowing that they will not convert me.
How can any of you explain these disappearing evangelists?
We were discussing the role religion plays in violence, and when I explained that such violence cannot always be blamed on nonreligious factors, he bid goodbye. He didn't bother making a case for his position. It appears that we may not again have the pleasure of dialoguing with Fritz.I really feel like I'm getting stupider just trying to talk sense to you folks here. Bye.
