What are your opinions about us theists in this forum?
You're quite a varied lot. The Christians alone fun from focused on whom Jesus would want them to hate to Christ-like in the best sense.

I like having them, it would be an echo chamber around here without them.

I think you're each who you are and unlikely to change much, especially on our account. It would be nice if we had more of the polite and reasonable ones. Maybe they could invite some friends to join us.

I think it's at least worth a try.

It's mainly intellectual entertainment, and some of the better ones make me wonder if they might come up with a good argument for their position that I haven't had a chance to examine before.
