TILL
I started skipping your postings and read this one only because of its
title.  Sure, go ahead and send me your questions.  As for publishing these
in TSR, the answer to that depends on whether your questions relate to
biblical inerrancy.

(DAVE 2/17)  Farrell:  Ok.  Please answer with ONLY "true" or "false" (as I 
have been asked to do above).

1.   There is no God.
2.   Yahweh (the God of the Bible) could very well exist.
3.   Supernatural beings do not exist.
4.   I, Farrell Till, after having shown in my life that I can turn my back 
on what I am CONVICTED about and know to be true, acknowledge that my 
conviction in my current "beliefs" may also be completely wrong and I have 
the capacity to turn my back on it as well - in other words, I have shown 
that I can preach, write about and teach what I know in my heart to not be true.
5.   There is no conceived design or intended purpose in the cosmos.
6.   Human beings evolved from a point of singularity.
7.   There is no "Creator" (being responsible for the creation of all that 
we know).
8.   I will cease to exist when I die.
9.   I am not concerned what happens to me when I die.
10.  There is no heaven, no hell, no Satan, and no atonement required for me.

Regards.

Dave
