Knox G. - 22 Aug 2007 13:46 GMT For camping in this area, you should look into Goose Island State Park in Rockport. You have your choice of secluded, tree-lined campsites or sites on the beach complete with shelter.
Rockport is a short drive and ferry ride from Port Aransas and the Gulf of Mexico.
Rockport has several good restaurants (I like The Big Fisherman !) and shops.

REPLY: I shall, by golly. Thanks. I assume you meant to say Port 'Arkansas' ??? Ill look it up on the map and see if Goose Island SP has a website.

If you're so thin skinned that just a slight spelling correction sends you off the deep end, then you better go back to webtv and STAY THERE.
I'm sure I'm not the only one here who has developed a negative attitude of your habit of lecturing others according to your own phony self-righteousness. And, you're quite welcome to leave ASAP Hal
Dave in Lake Villa - 25 Aug 2007 02:34 GMT 'You dumb a**ed SOB. If you're so thin skinned that just a slight spelling correction sends you off the deep end, then you better go back to webtv and STAY THERE.'
REPLY: I didnt 'go off the deep end' about a spelling correction ; it was the rude statement that i should go and consult a map , that was uncalled for. I dont talk that way to Janet, and, it would be quite nice to expect the same in return. Theres nothing 'self righteous' about that at all Hal.
'I'm sure I'm not the only one here who has developed a negative attitude of your habit of lecturing others according to your own phony self-righteousness.'
REPLY: Im not at all concerned about your subjective view, Hal. And i think you know you shouldnt be resorting to foul name calling IE: You dumb a**ed SOB. Theres simply no need for this Hal. We are all part of the great RV adventure and name calling is wrong and very unecessary. I regret if my correcting you goes against the grain of being 'tolerant' to vile and foul name calling , but, its wrong Hal.. So, dont do things that are wrong --- its important to be a Do-Gooder instead.
'And, you're quite welcome to leave ASAP Hal'
REPLY: Hal, i like it here . And i wont be leaving so long as i have an RV . So, lets be friends and quit the unproductive squabbeling . How is your RV running ? What trips have you been on this year ?

If my statement appeared to be "rude" you might go back and look at your own. You corrected a gentleman who had spelled the name of the place correctly. Don't you think you were a bit rude to him? He was being helpful and you were correcting him without consulting a map. Don't you think you hurt his feelings? Don't you think you owe him an apology?

How totally rude of Janet! (EG)

REPLY: Yes ! But i love sitting in my recliner 8 feet away with a wireless keypad and favorite libation next to me. Are you the same Hal thats been visiting the Atheist NG's lately ? How come you dont want the personal Creator to exist Hal ? Whats up with all of that ?

But learn to spell, for god's sake. How can you bitch about the spelling errors of others?

REPLY: Look at the error you are making by pretending that God , the personal Theistic Creator , doesnt exist .... so you can live life the way you want to. This is more aggregious than spelling errors. How come you dont want God to exist Ken ? What is up with this ? Would you like to chat about it for a little while ? Email me if you dont want to discuss it publicly. Regards.

REPLY: Regardless of lower case , upper case or any case... Gods name should not be used flippantly or as a convenience of speech , especially by alleged atheists ! The Creator of this Universe should be respected above all else. And, God doesnt believe in atheists because there is no such thing. Regards.

REPLY: No Stan, there is only one true Creator God for this Universe and his name is Jehovah God in addition to a few other names for the same and only Theistic Creator in whos image we are fashioned. If you dont believe in him, perhaps you can explain how personality and emotions such as : Moral oughtness, ethical systems, intuition, abstract thinking, love, reasoning, rationalizing, et al... ultimately came from Materials such as rocks, dirt, and hydrogen gas (?) . Can you tell us how these highly personal things 'evolved' from non personal materials ? Thanks.

Chris Cowles - 26 Aug 2007 22:52 GMT > "God" isn't a name. It's a classification of beings. Ignoring religious arguments, you are incorrect. As commonly used by monotheists, God is a name. God is a god.
Dave in Lake Villa - 27 Aug 2007 03:21 GMT 'Ignoring religious arguments, you are incorrect. As commonly used by monotheists, God is a name. God is a god.'
REPLY: This is correct. And, a good case can be made for the existence of a Theistic Creator (God) without even appealing to 'religious arguments' .

Dave in Lake Villa - 27 Aug 2007 20:24 GMT Would Theistic Creator make more sense to you Stan ?
Translated: a creator who believes in the existence of a god or gods?.
REPLY: A personal Creator who is above and beyond what he created , much like a Painter is to his painting.
stan.birch@hotmail.com - 27 Aug 2007 21:36 GMT >Would Theistic Creator make more sense to you Stan ? > >Translated: a creator who believes in the existence of a god or gods?.
>REPLY: A personal Creator who is above and beyond what he created , >much like a Painter is to his painting. The concept of "personal" implies exclusive ownership; and something of a private nature which is not shared: like a toothbrush. Everyone has one of their own. There must be billions of these personal gods. But doesn't that sort of conflict with your previous statement:
"There is only one true Creator God for this Universe."
If that's the case, only one person in the universe owns this "personal" god; or he is not a personal, but a public god. ??
How many gods do you figure there are out there?
Dave in Lake Villa - 27 Aug 2007 23:35 GMT 'The concept of "personal" implies exclusive ownership; and something of a private nature which is not shared: like a toothbrush.'
REPLY: Yes i agree precisely. Because the personal Creator brought a highly fine tuned Universe into existence from nothing when he didnt have to, certainly shows that he 'owns' it and us. Fashioning a Universe and Earth with extremely narrow razor edge precision for our sake , is something that 'he shares' with us and demonstrates his enormous love and care for mankind in whos image we are created in. When you look around Stan, do you get the feeling that everything is wild happenstance without order or complexity, or, does it look personally fashioned with order and precision ?
'There must be billions of these personal gods. But doesn't that sort of conflict with your previous statement: "There is only one true Creator God for this Universe." '
REPLY: What is the problem you see with ONE Creator by which he made EVERYONE in his image (likeness) ? The Law of Biogenesis asserts that life only comes from life itself ; do you believe its possible for highly personal things such as ability to reason, rationalize, think in abstract, have intuition, love, empathy, etc.. to have come from NON personal materials such as dirt, rocks, and hydrogen gas ? If so, how did that occur.?
'only one person in the universe owns this "personal" god; or he is not a personal, but a public god. ?? How many gods do you figure there are out there?'
REPLY: How can a human being 'own' this personal Theistic God ?! Because God created everything from nothing, then HE owns it. Does a Painter own the Painting he paints ? There can only be ONE infinite Theistic God , and that person is the Theistic God of the Bible because the Bible can be proven to be supernatural in origin and therefore what it has to say , is absolutely always true. No other Text can be proven to be divine , not the Koran nor the Mahabaratta or anything else.
How open are you to moving closer to God if you were satisfied that he was real, existed, and loved you like no other ?
Dan Listermann - 28 Aug 2007 00:41 GMT > REPLY: A personal Creator who is above and beyond what he created , > much like a Painter is to his painting. Who made the Painter?
Dave in Lake Villa - 28 Aug 2007 02:41 GMT much like a Painter is to his painting. "Who made the Painter?"
REPLY: The finite Painter was made by his finite Parents ; but the INfinite personal Creator for the finite Universe doesnt need to be made -- he is eternal if he can bring something finite into existence from nothing. It would require him to be infinite in personality, emotions, will, ability, power, knowledge, morality, ethical, etc... ; only finite things need a Cause . God doesnt.

A lot of terms are used incorrectly; and just because a bunch of monotheists use a term incorrectly, doesn't change the facts, or somehow legitimize error.
BTW - who are these so-called monotheists??

For about the same money there is a park in the town of Port Aransas (spelled that sucker right!) it is a whole lot closer to town and has nicer sites. If you want a decent RV park then my choice is the Pioneer nice sites and close to town with a three minute walk to the beach. Dave

Has a pool, storage and a rec hall not to mention the bird ponds. Not the cheapest but the best in the area.

REPLY: I contacted them and here are their rates ; i dont think they Standard Back in Site is too bad at all especially for a month. Looks like a very nice place to stay and im sure ill enjoy it. So, many thanks Dave. Signed, Dave.
our standard back-in sites are $ 160. weekly, $375. monthly plus electric our standard pull thru sites are $180. weekly, $595. monthly plus electric our premium back=in sites are $200. weekly, $520. monthly plus electric our premium pull thru sites are $200. weekly, $595. monthly plus electric Cable tv is additional $15. weekly, $25. monthly
Ken - 29 Aug 2007 17:06 GMT OK things got a little weird there.
By that, I guess you mean dave from lake evil and his religious rantings. Ask yourself if Texas really needs another fool like this in your state? Perhaps you should give him directions to a nice safe RV park in Ciudad Juarez or Nuevo Loredo instead.
