You started out good

Which again, does not have to be like this. I honestly think the only reason it is, is the expectation you all put on each other to dominate the christian and either leave them speechless or crying.
I have so many times in this discussion simply stood by my answer ignoring opportunity after opportunity you guys have provided to join you in an ad hom name calling contest. but me turning the other cheek here is not enough. You feel a need to humiliate me, for what? disagreeing with you?
for not rolling over and allowing you to dominate the subject matter with your stock atheist responses? Most of you guys are super smart, and you keep me on my toes. that is why I'm here despite all the personal attacks. because you offer a far superior challenge that the rank in file of reddit.
Quote:It should be obvious to you.yes it is.
Quote:You do understand that atheists talk about other things than religion.Which is why I seek to only occupy this space as to not intrude on your other 'personal spaces' Plus to be honest I do this stuff between phone calls and issues that come up at work. and it is everything I can do to keep up with all of you. I could go anywhere else and keep up. even my reddit postings have dropped.
Quote:If you want to believe in god that's fine by me, just don't expect me to agree, especially with the nonsense you post.I truly don't have any expectation there.
Quote:Maybe it works for you and the other christians, if so great. But can't you tell that it's not working for the rest of the forum?To borrow a line from one of my favorite shows as a kid. "Hunter" 'It works for me.'
Quote:You've become what we call a 'chew toy'. A desperate christian that will throw anything that comes to mind against the wall to see if it sticks. Hint, none so far has stuck.just glad to be apart of the community./We all have roles to play.
Quote:If you can produce concrete evidence that there is a god then bring it. So far I haven't seen any, from you or any other christian, jew, muslim, hindu.............To produce God is to have authority over God. I have no such authority. But I can tell you that God offers direct one on one time with all who seek Him on His terms.
