Forum theists: when you have a moment, please...

I've not started many threads and the ones I have, haven't been for a lot of comments. The reason I do not start threads that will be conversation pieces is because most atheist here do not want to have intelligent conversation about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit or the Bible, instead they want to insult and derail such conversations. I find most atheist do not know enough about the Bible to have those kinds of conversations, this is not intended as demeaning, it's just fact. They rely on Google or whatever to get as little info as they can to make comments. Using a verse or two for these kinds of conversations is inappropriate for these types of conversations. They also use what others say as fact whether they get it from the forum or the net, they do not know enough about scriptures to form their own opinions, believe me I've tried to get original ideas from them. Again I'm not saying any of this as demeaning, it's what I've observed over the last five years. So I would rather join in on threads where I find interest.

We do want to have intelligent conversations, but we also want to hear things that we haven't seen a hundred times before. i know that you are a bit stymied because the texts are set and unchangeable but there must be new takes on these things, ones that can't be torn apart by my twelve year old son would be nice.

  Not we, very few here actually want to enter a conversation about the Bible and/or God with any intelligent conversation, most of it is jokes or down right hateful. I have a suggestion read this thread and see that the Christians are saying the same thing, we should know we wind up on the short end of the stick and the atheist are making statements they want to, yet I'm telling you honestly very few do and to those that do I say thank you. By the way no one here has ever torn apart any verse I've explain, yep they have claimed to have but no hasn't happened. Another thing atheist gang up on Christians derailing conversation with a bunch of trash, as if they didn't want the conversation to go on, every Christian here now and in the past have complained about this, but I guess all of us are wrong simple because we are Christians, right.
