Sword, can you explain yourself?

"Religion is the first refuge of the desperate when history doesn't tally with their dogma"

Sword, could you please explain what are you trying to tell us? Because as far as I am concerned, history is confirming all the "dogmas" of my faith, and indeed I am the last person to have any reason to complain or to be "desperate" for that matter.

In any case you must have noticed by now that in spite of being a faithful Jew, I detest religious debates on this site as well as anywhere else, and I have no intention to join such a debate, even not with you. As for my "positions", they are very well tenable, under any terms (even yours) as you must have also noticed by now.
