Well I make now a public apology if anyone was offended, sorry.

As way of explanation I see that it could be read as referring to a convert/revert, that was never my intention.

I was actually referring to myself (in a jocular way) and the double meaning of the question "your current state?".

It was meant as a joke on the wording and nothing to do with religion at all.

So sorry again for any confusion.

Everyone happy now? :)

Peace

"Would drunk and confused be an acceptable answer to this?"

Kindly respect other's feelings, if u don't like this. just leave it, these is no topic to discuss here, so really ur answer shocked me, if its something between u and the thread owner, just confront him.

U can say whatever u think, i respect that, maybe i will respond or not, but surely i will not insult u or ur believes.

Annoying isn't it? Welcome to the world I see where superstitious belief pokes its nose into most aspects of life, and has an opinion on everything.

Plus I can read what I like, and I would not dream of commenting on this thread in a serious manner, what I posted was a joke, or are these not allowed or understood by theists?

Peace my friend.

Adey, dont you think your taking this anti-religion a bit too far? Seriously for an atheist, you do spend a lot of time on religious discussions(even the serious one like this that are not obviously meant for you).

and my teeth and hair will fall off upon my reversion...

I'm trying to comprehend this matter.

I thought you 'reverted' not 'converted'.

Sorry that is all I can help you with as I am not a revert.
