You might find some enlightening information on our "Important information for theists." page:
http://atheistforums.org/thread-3559.html
It might explain why you received such a negative reaction when you came here. We have a few theists that frequent these forums and even have a theist moderator to add in some balance. This forum is all about discussion, you just hit some hot button issues that piss some of us off. Please refrain from trying to convince us with repetition, we've heard the unmoved mover line, what else ya got? The topic of God is an interesting one and I've learned a lot by participating here. We all take some lumps and sometimes it can feel like trial by fire, but it isn't from hate that people react the way they do, it is mostly just a different viewpoint. We don't know you enough to hate you.
lol well fair enough. I'll check out that page. Yeah I'm sure most of the people on here if they knew me long enough would like me ok, and if anything else, in everyday intereactions would be respectful.
I still feel like there is a crisis. I'm not trying to "prove" anything. I only meant to say that I feel like everyone desires an objective truth, and an objective right and wrong but that we realize that rationally that is impossible, but if it is true that there is an objective right and wrong then there is something else that is outside of our temporal experience, or something akin to this. I know many will say that this crisis does not justify wish fulfillment, and maybe they have a point, but I still feel like my company has a more whollistic and compelling response.
