Pete, you need to understand that we atheists (not all of us; some are more charitable than others) tend to lump you guys together because you are literally PROGRAMMED by your religion to say certain things at certain points in a discussion, like an algorithm.
We hear it over, and over, and over; predictable to the point of absurdity. It becomes robotic over time, and your last post is a PERFECT example of a commonly visited branch on the 'Christian debates atheist' algorithm: 'Christian gets frustrated with overwhelming push back; threatens hell.' Check. The hell-threat thing is SO overused around here that it's practically a cliche.
You are painting yourself as a caricature without even realizing it. You don't want to be treated like a hive mind? Then don't ACT like one. Throw us a curve ball. Be willing to participate in an honest discussion about your beliefs without running back to the bible for instructions on what to say next. And, if you aren't interested in discussions that challenge your beliefs then frankly, this might not be the right forum for you, because they WILL be challenged regardless of whether or not you are interested in participating. [emoji53] You can't have one foot in and one foot out around here, ya know?
