Now I just don't see the fun in it. I'm just going to get annoyed by the same ol' arguments, same questions, same "personal experiences".
So, here I am on a debate forum telling you I'm too lazy to debate.
Are you still debating theists? How do you find the drive to continue to answer to the same things over and over again?

I'm definitely not too lazy to debate in general, but I've always been too lazy to debate Christianity.
I was raised with Christianity, and came to my own personal conclusion that it's a myth.
I live in a part of England where Christians aren't worrying in the slightest.
I used to be very much into debating Islam. I'm surrounded by Muslims and Mosques and I always found the debate more of a challenge since it's a religion I knew nothing about which involved research.
I don't live around white Christian rednecks or whatever you might experience in America. I live around Muslim gangs, the grooming gangs, no go areas for white non Muslims, the drug dealing gangs and so on.
Not that I'm saying these problems are specific to Muslims, I'm saying if you live around rednecks you experience the bad parts of that, I've only ever seen that sort of culture on television. My experience is different.
I don't really debate Islam much anymore because I was banned from their forums ages ago, just before I came to this forum.
On this forum I don't debate religion much because it's more enjoyable and challenging for me to debate about something that most people disagree with me on. It's better for me to debate topics like politics on this forum or issues surrounding politics.
I used to think debating was pretty much useless arguing but over the years I've done a lot of research into various topics and I believe I've learned quite a lot. Mostly about evolution.
It's very apparent when I talk to some friends who never debate, who've never had their opinions questioned and in some cases only form their opinions during the conversation.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
