Lol sounds fun! I might try that sometime  Did you get banned? You're not doing it right if you don't get banned, or so I hear. 
Luckily I know what they talk about and what PISSES THEM OFF, since I was a Christian my entire life, but still it boggles my mind as to the non-reasons that they consider reasoning for their beliefs. Surely I wasn't an unreasonable idiot back then, was I? Nope. Cuz here I am. Anyways, welcome. I'm off to bed now. Lemme know if you see anymore gods beaming down to earth. I'm a photographer.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Nope. Not banned....yet. I simply make (what I think are) logical arguments and what not. My intent is not to troll, my intent is to learn, and if I get a few Christians going "hey, maybe he isn't bullshitting" well that's a bonus. And good night!

New here myself, hey. Perhaps "beliefs" was a bad choice of words, LOL.
I agree with you about looking at religion, the history and art of the world cannot be appreciated without acknowledging religion

You said that if you knew that god exists, you wouldn't worship him which sounds like anti-theism (or at least one of its definitions)- something that some would consider to be the final step of disbelief. Also, what do you think is the difference between agnosticism and atheism?

If you don't know something, then aren't you ignorant of it? It's just a word and you shouldn't exaggerate it's importance.
For instance, we're all born ignorant of religion. We have to learn what it's about. So.. If you are ignorant, why not be proud of that?
But i agree, opinions are great.

If I don't know about Snarffles, that doesn't make me ignorant of it. Because they don't exist. I'm actually smarter for not having known about them.
And now you're less smart for having been made aware
