Color me confused.
I think he's not a Christian, otherwise why say things that would intentionally cause more mocking of Christianity? People do lie on the internet, you know. If he's told you otherwise in private, I think he's just using you to further his poe plans.
From following him on here and reading all his posts, this is what I have gathered:
He is Catholic but has been very conflicted with his beliefs. He wants to leave but is having a hard time letting go and feels unsure in case it actually IS all real. I think getting people riled up and getting them to talk about how stupid Christianity is, makes him feel better about leaving. It's kind of like when you break up with someone and you're trying to move on, so you go out with your friends and it makes you feel better when they start talking crap about the person you broke up with.
Ahh, I see your point.
Well, in that case he is still a poe, even if one with a reason.
Yes, he did say he was an agnostic early on, here. But when someone is disingenuous, even with a reason, it still makes other people doubt them, you know?
