Some Tips for Theists on an Atheist Forum
#43
RE: Some Tips for Theists on an Atheist Forum
Ok, moral instructions as in code of conduct, yes. There are some things on there like you mentioned. However, from experience some theists fall into the stereotypes listed above. There is a code of conduct that applies specifically to theists here. It should be as this is an atheist forum. For an atheist to do said things would lessen the effectiveness of the code as it would imply hyprocrisy. Therefore both theist and atheist are punished for them, but as it is an atheist forum and experience dictates the theist is held stronger to the "moral" standard.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
