But they always start it!
I watch religious / atheist videos on youtube and post silly blasphemous comments, usually involving Jesus in some kind of sexual act. Then I get bombarded with messages from Christians to argue with =D
Its funneh. Because saying those things where I live in real life would likely get me killed.
I do believe in Jesus though, he was real fo sure! He found some magical weed one day, began smoking it, gave it to all his chums, and then we got Christianity!
I will have to admit, arguing with Christians is pretty fun (the best argument I have had was with a now ex-girlfriend). But "they always start it" is a very general and misguided statement.
I do not really think that the experiences you described in this post support your "they always start it" claim, because you said yourself that you post "blasphemous comments" on religious videos. fr0d0 is right, you did deliberately wind them up, probably hoping to start an argument. So, was it not you who really started it?
This is a terrible approach to take if you are interested in arguing or debating someone. You should try speaking to the Christian intelligently at first, expressing your beliefs, and possibly asking questions. And if that does not work, move on. Deliberately making people mad will get you nowhere, except perhaps a heated argument wherein nothing is ever truly gained.
You should try to be nice to people.
