I haven't got the same buzz I used to get when debating like when I first joined here if I'm honest. Mainly due to the fact that it just seems a pointless endeavour, and the people you argue against never offer anything new. You find yourself talking about the same old shit as well.
I'm gonna try and take a break from giving a shit if I can for a while. I doubt I will be able to resist though.
Know what you mean. I just want to point and laugh at them rather than debate them.

Obviously I barely ever post here these days, and it's because of these feelings, mainly. The thing I have found most frustrating is the refusal of theists to follow their thought processes through to the conclusion and be honest. So when I ask someone straightforwardly 'Do you think it is right or wrong that gay people should be penalised' or 'Do you think it is right or wrong that I should be punished for eternity simply for not believing' and they dodge around the answer, it annoys me. It further annoys me that they are unwilling to contemplate what their internal conflict might mean.
I've missed your posts man.

Like the bit about it being fucking bullshit?
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
