Hmmm... Puking is a good way to diet? Oh, well - you're the doctor.

Nope.  Not good at all.  But I shouldn't have indulged in that piece of pizza anyway.

Move along.

I second Min's suggestion.  
I actually un-hid (is that a word?  oh well.) your post.  You don't like the website suggestions either.  Well, well.  Go write a better one.  Tell them all the things you have learned during all the months of your life that you have wasted, posting huge amounts of badly-written, egotistical, idiotic self-aggrandizing crap, trying to teach people who don't want to be taught, and never being taken seriously.

I have. scroll up a few posts.

...And to toot my/our own horn a little, you may not have been a member here long enough to notice a dramatic change in the subject matter as well of the type and quality of post that Atheist use to post verse the 'raised bar' post typically made by an established member. all of this 'self aggrandizing' has pushed most of you people past letting Memes and youtube anti theist do your thinking for you.

Granted I am not the only Christian member who has contributed to this bar raising, but never the less of those who have helped raise the bar. I can assure you, did not slink back into the shadows once one of the topics or techniques your website wanted to keep 'us' away from.

All your website does it makes the established atheist position easier to defend. If for you that is 'self-aggrandizing' then know I think I will somehow make it through my day with your label.

Anyone whose (apparent sole) purpose for existing is to try to change the beliefs of others is an egotist and rancid pond slime.  Now you're going back on ignore, Drippy-Doodle.  I just have to open one of your posts each month to remind myself why I shouldn't.

How is it you do not understand what is happening here?

Why is it that you have me on ignore if you were in a position to silence me?

Isn't that what you primary purpose is as an atheist???

To silence or crush those who believe in God?

So then the question is... why do you run from someone like me? why do you hide? Is it because you can not explain away all the points I being up? are you not into lying to yourself yet and can't just dismiss everything I say out right, So then you must avert your eyes, better to "not know what you don't know than have to deal with it?"

Hey, if you feel comfortable just following the guy in front of you, and never challenging yourself to think outside the box you are currently living in, then who am I to say you can't do that? So If you ever find your big boy pants I'll be here because I don't have you nor anyone else on 'ignore.'

So how do you think you're doing here, Dripster? Any conversions? Can't imagine it is that fun for you. Oh well, I guess it is as good a bridge for you to hang out under as any.

(sigh) Alright, you bastard, I'll answer this one.

"How is it you do not understand what is happening here?"  -- I understand perfectly what is happening here.  I'm here to find a safe place where I can have discussions with OTHER ATHEISTS without having to put up with shithead preachers.  You're here under the delusion that you're "saving souls", and are providing anything other than comic relief and serving as a poster-boy for offensive, disrespectful, loudmouthed idiots who think that what other people believe should be any of their business.

"Why is it that you have me on ignore if you were in a position to silence me?  Isn't that what you primary purpose is as an atheist??? To silence or crush those who believe in God?"  --- Nope.  You can preach all you want on your OWN forum, or your own blog, or your own church.  Just don't get in my face with it. It's horrendously annoying, therefore I put your inane ramblings on ignore.  Ah.  Better.

>>>  I was raised fundie, fuckwad.  I have most of your wholly babble memorized - I had to quote new memorized verses before dinner every night, and if I couldn't, I didn't get dinner.  I know preachers well. Most of the preachers I have ever encountered were busy having multiple affairs and getting all of the 13-year-old girls pregnant. Oh, but that's ok, because they preach the word and speak for god. I spent 46 years being preached at before I broke free.  I've had enough of that hideous moronic bullcrap preaching for five lifetimes. That's why you're on ignore.

Wow. Damn. 46?!?! They had that shit drilled into you deep. I made it out at 19. My parents were fundies in that they reject evolution and take it all literally but I had nothing like what you went through. Also if you were lesbian the whole time I can only imagine how confused, fucked up and self loathing you were.

Somewhat serious and somewhat joking: what if you quoted the batshit crazy verses like the one where "I long for my lover that was hung like a horse" or what if you quoted, "Ahaziah was 42 years old when he became king," one night and the next night you quoted, "Ahaziah was 22 years old when he became king"?

You know, I don't remember much about which verses got scheduled when . . . and I honestly think my Dad skipped Ezekiel 23:20.  (ha!)  It's odd, I was made to memorize and quote a verse or two - but I don't ever recall being asked what I think it MEANT.  I might have asked what "whose genitals were like those of donkeys" meant . . . very embarrassing at the dinner table.

What a pitiful upbringing. Glad you made it out. I felt enlightened after my escape so I can only imagine how liberated and enlightened you must have felt
