Any Christian named "DIE ATHEISIST" (or whatever) saying they're gender fluid is either fucking with you or is confused about more than whether or not to pee standing up.
I think he just had an emotion reaction to the name "DIE Atheis..." instead of reading the profile as German "The atheist" and everything else was just assumptions and irrational doubling down. The question is does "Valid point on the name. I still don't give a flying fuck what he/she/it does with their naughty bits." qualify as owning up to being wrong? I would assume yes, but...
I will agree that friends and family are the people the OP should be talking to. I think he's missing the point that people can make friends on forums as well. Also, missing the safety in anonymity tack on the testing the waters first in a supportive forum. Apparently, proving why that's justified because we're all just cats clawing at the eyes of the perceived weakest/different.
"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
