Noru over there seems to think that just because a word is not offensive to him people should see things the way he does and stop being so thinned skinned. that just because he does not use a word in a way that persecutes another means others should also not contextualize the word choices he makes, rather use the word how he sees it. thus Christians have nor can ever claim being verbally persecuted because persecution has no effect verbally. that one such as himself can not say anything that would persecute another even if he assigns himself the n-word out of context. that no one such as yourself should find it offensive as word hold no intrinsic power on their own.
I said if a single word even outside of context can be seen as a form of persecution, then how much more so are these anti Christian posts where the whole body of a post is dedicated to pure hate and vitriol towards a person who believes in God?
Again if one word can bee seen as persecution then how much more are thousands of posts sometimes over 10,000 posts that all center on the hatred of God and those who repersent him?
So Noru took up my offer, rather than just call himself noru and explain the changed "N" he decided to go full BS crazy
do you know the difference because in truth they over lap moron.
to persecute can be as extreme as: hostility and ill-treatment, especially because of race or political or religious beliefs. or as mundane as :persistent annoyance or harassment. which is the same as the #1 definition of offensive 1.causing someone to feel deeply hurt, upset, or angry.
So can you admit now that since you bailed on your social experiment that if a single a word can lend itself to persecution, then pages of vitriol and venom again people and their beliefs are also a form of persecution?
Again you all silenced 3/4 of the christians that where here this time last year, because they could no long take all of the hatred directed at them. they where not simply offended and left. they where hated out of this forum, or another way to put it persecuted to the point where they gave up..
So then why the doubble standard? why is every other social race based group protected but you all feel there is no limits put on Christianity?
1. They can overlap, but that isn't the same as 'they overlap'. You understand these words about as much as you do the word 'altruism'.
2. Yes. Those two definitions are manifestly not the same. Your reading comprehension is about as evolved as your theology.
3. I bailed on the social experiment because I made my point. You thought that calling me 'Noru' or some such would make me feel persecuted. It didn't. Name calling isn't the same as persecution, Mister Poopy Pants.
4/5. I have never 'silenced' anyone. In fact, I think I do a better job at not calling Christians names than some of my fellow atheists. If they left because they couldn't take being called names, that's their business. It still doesn't rise to the level of 'persecution'.
You're an idiot. Nothing to do with your being a Christian. You're just...an idiot.

Hey Nigger Boru
I love your new handle.
No, I didn't say that you have love handles. That would be insulting.
Have a nice day and nice 'man on a stick' week, y'hear.
I don't know whether I need a bottle in front of me or a frontal lobotomy.
