Theland - // I have no intention of sneering or being arrogant etc, and if I appear as such, it is not intentional. //
As an adult, that is simply not good enough.
Try re-reading before you hit the button, and read what you have written out loud, and see how it sounds.
If you really can't distinguish between what you intend to say, or think you say, and what you do say, then internet forums are not the place for you.

Theland - // We always seem to veer away from the subject matter don't we?
THAT is not intentional. //
The subject matter and the way people address it are inextricably linked - and once again as an adult you should easily understand that basic concept of debate.
If you don't want the thread to steer off the subject, why not try and present your views with the given assumption that the people you are debating with are mature adults like you, with informed educated opinions, like you, and they appreciate respect and courtesy - like you.
I really shouldn't need to be telling you this, but if it gives you some pause for thought, then it's been worth it.
As a final point - in my long history on this site (none longer!), I have seen many many people who have aroused the level of ire and hostility among a significant number of seasoned and reasonable AB'ers, but without exception that have been trolls who wind people up because they get perverse pleasure out of it, and none of them lasted long.
I do believe that you offer your views sincerely, and with good intention, but you must offer the courtesy and respect to others' opinions, especially if different, that you would hope yours to receive.
Do that and my experience tells me that the hostility and grief you get will evaporate instantly - starting with any from me.
Hope this helps.

We do indeed - and very often it’s because you derail thread after thread by swerving off topic to insist that the beginnings of the universe were attributable to a specific power, the existence of which remains, very definitely, purely in the realms of speculation.
As far as I can tell this thread should be about Satan.
Incidentally, that he was a ‘fallen angel’ is another matter that is highly debatable. In my opinion far too much credence is given to the authors - and to the very many subsequent editors of the New Testament - guilty of providing information (and misinformation) by design.
