I think we should discuss the discussions of our discussions, then beepete could go back and discuss our discussion of the discussions of discussions.
This could go on and on.
Disgusting.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

The theists on this board are always welcome to leave. I did not come here to talk to theists, and usually, ignore their (your) threads anyway, unless the discussion starts to get so ridiculous that I begin to feel some sense of ethical obligation to intervene by posting. Usually, though, others beat me to it.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I am really clueless why theists would even want to be here. I don't post on theistic boards. I guess, "What's the deal?"

We're just people, no better or worse than anyone else. Like you, we just don't believe in nearly all gods; unlike you, we just go one god further.

No, I'm not a member of a Christian forum. i do not believe Christians need to be arguing God, it's a ridiculous thing to do.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I would have thought Christian forums would primarily be about fellowship with like-minded people.

That wss my experiencs. There were some disagreements here and there, but mostly fellowship. But that's why it became boring for me. Echo chamber and all that.

You're completely full of shit, CL. You wouldn't know boring fellowship if it bit you on the ass. How do you manage to tie your shoes?
I'm glad you found a place where you don't have to endure that.
