Hello. My reason for removing your comments was explained in my edit summary. I was not offended by them, but that is irrelevant. Please see WP:TALK, expecially the bolded text in the first paragraph. Discussion pages are for improving articles. They are not forums about the subject. Thank you.

- I was too hasty. I see now that your comments were directed toward improving a paragraph. Please accept my apologies. Nick Graves (talk) 18:18, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- Regarding your comment: Hehe, apparently I also need to work on my reading comprehension skills. Cheers. Nick Graves (talk) 18:31, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- Regarding the clarity tweaking: you're welcome. I don't much like the article right now. A lot of it consists of some arm-chair conjectures, with little solidly sourced material. It's a mess. Nick Graves (talk) 18:52, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- I agree, but this is a very tricky subject to discuss from an objective point of view. References become problematic as many theological debates never answer the question given but restate their own belief. Ask 5 philosophers a question and you will get 6 opinions that do not answer the question. This is why I am a statistician, ask 5 statisticians a qustion, and while you may still get 6 answers, they will at least address the question.Jaydstats (talk) 19:19, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
