Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then He is not omnipotent. Is He able, but not willing? Then He is malevolent. Is He both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is He neither able nor willing? Then why call Him God?

You are using emotionally charged words like "narcissistic". There is no narcissistic logic. A narcissist can use logic, but logic is just a form of reasoning, and I still did not see any reasoning to show how MY reasoning was invalid.
I am not caught in a web. A web is for individuals, to absorb them into into "collectivist" thinking (NOT individual), sounds familiar?
That is the exact opposite of what I am saying. I actually believe in individuality. If you want to be caught in a collective with "one mind" and no individuality. Feel free to do so.
I made this thread knowing that it will not get much positive feedback, knowing that people would dismiss it just because of emotionally charged words. I can deal with the fact that the points I'm addressing are being denied - not considered - and not even trying to be disproved. Oh well.

You dont have original thoughts, your logic has been happily embraced by Hitler and other similar historical figures.

Your just an actor who is reading a tired old nasty script. Nothing original to see here just a bad actor.

It doesn't matter how narcissistic it is "PERCEIVED" by others, it is either a valid perspective or NOT, and I did not say anything NON-factual in my views.
It is true that if you focus on improving yourself that there is a greater chance you'll become stronger and independent.
It is true that if you focus on empowering others to help themselves, there is a greater chance of them becoming self-sufficient
It is an Ancient Chinese Proverb! They agree with me!
"Give a man to fish and he eats for a day, TEACH a man to fish and he can eat the rest of his life"
Now you are trying to cause emotional reactions by linking me to Hitler.
Ironically, that is your EGO making that stuff up. You are making stuff up to defend your own SELF beliefs and yet criticizing me for OPENLY holding selfish beliefs that I give actual REASONING for.
I am going to speak my perspective, give reasoning, and let the people come by and either accept it or believe it. I don't care either way, but I will speak up if I feel like people are mis-representing what I am saying or simply saying false things.

Of course because im a better actor than you, i can do the emotionals as well and not just parrot read lines from the script.

My Ego meditates and yours cries like a baby.

And yet you still fail to provide evidence that my perspective is flawed.
Once again, you are criticizing me instead of the arguments I present.
Another logical FALLACY on your part, "Argumentum Ad Hominem" .
It's interested how I have "twisted" logic (which you never explain by the way) and yet you are the one with all the illogical fallacies...
I am an individual.
My ego isn't crying. Is yours?
Oh well, that's their choice, and I am not "kiddo", I have a name, and even IF I were a child that does not change whether or not what I am saying is true or false at all.

"Argumentum Ad Hominem" . ....Using Wiki dictonary now?....try making up something original in 2012. Its not too late.
I am done discussing this with you.
I won't respond to you in this thread because you are speaking nonsense and avoiding the question,.....
I'll allow your SELFISHNESS to do this even though you deny it.
If not then "YAY!" I got this final word in this debate with you.
If you DO respond, you'll be demonstrating my point.So it is good either way.
If anyone ELSE has anything to say I'll gladly respond.
