Wow. And the next one? Smartest piece of writing I've ever seen CL write:
Respect. Makes me feel like a lot of the time she's holding back! Believe in yourself CL, I understand you don't see yourself as particularly intelligent--and I'm certainly not suggesting you're super duper smart or anything--but you can really show that you are indeed intelligent when you try. Great post
I want more posts like that one from you 
To me, your post made Neo look like a dumb twat who's just educated himself on some intellectual and philosophical works, and yet failed to actually understand any of what he's read-up on properly. Exactly what I mean when I speak of his pseudo-intellectualism. Regardless of how erudite he is... you seem far more logical than he is--at least when it comes to lack of biases... I'm not saying you're better at formal logic... perhaps I should say you are more rational than he is to avoid confusion--... and he flat out admitted he's only interested in seeking knowledge that reconfirms his own viewpoint. That's the very essence of confirmation bias on his part. He got completely owned by you so far on every single level so don't underestimate yourself and keep it up
Catholic Lady Wrote: Neo, you said this: "By asking about the role of Christians on AF, I’m not concerned about our personal motives, such as finding community, verbally joisting, or playing games. I question, in general, if there are any justifications for Christians, as Christians, to participate on AF and if so what such reasons could be."
I think there are 2 and I talk about each of them bellow.
Reason #1: I would say a Christian role on AF would be to set forth a good example of Christianity and to dispel some of the misconceptions both about Christianity as a religion and about Christians as people. To what end? In hopes of opening some hearts and planting a seed, either for a member here or a lurker. Though as I said on my first post, I don't think this is realistic and isn't the reason why I'm here personally, but I can see it being a "Christian thing" to strive for.
Reason #2: Another Christian role here would be to be challenged in our faith, and in being challenged, to explore it more, seek more answers, and in the end... grow in faith and become better and stronger Christians for it. I believe Alpha talked about this as well, and like he said, there are certainly other ways of going about doing this that don't involve participating on AF. But participating here is, nonetheless, A way.
So my conclusion is that yes, Christians do have roles here. But if the only reason you're here is to fulfill a Christian role and you otherwise don't enjoy your time here, are those 2 reasons worth it? Are you wasting your time? .....Probably not, and probably. Because #1 is a long shot, and #2 you could gain some other way.
