Default \"When you don\'t believe in God..........

U believe you are God.."

I realize there's a problem with this statement logically, but let's ignore that.

A wise person said this to me one time...

I can't help but think of David when I think of this statement.

That's doubtful. It's a rather unwise thing to say.

I realize there's a problem with this statement logically, grammatically, syntactically, and factually, but let's ignore that.

Why would you consider someone who said this to you to be wise?

Wisdom implies the ability to think clearly and articulate clearly. This is clearly neither well thought out, nor well conveyed.

What are some other gems they gave you?

This is just a simple explanation of satanism. There is nothing wrong with this.

I'm quite confident the person has more education and seen more of the world then you, as well as having better SAT scores! I know Sklansky would respect the last qualification.

This is a basically true statement. It doesn't mean each individual thinks he is an eternal, all-wise, all-powerful being. It means that if one rejects the true God, he takes over the position of final authority for himself, effectively performing the role of God for his own life. The only ultimate he recognizes is himself.

I guess we'll just have to take your word for it since you don't seem to be able to substantiate anything.

The original statement was still idiotic, BTW.
