I read through a good portion of the posts though!If you wish to read the very same thread starters I used there that were allowed to fully develop and peterout on their own, you can look at my history here. (A Christian can not start a biblically based conversation without sounding preachy to someone.) the question then becomes is the Christian in a place where 'free thought' is allowed?
As an outsider to the conversation, I did think you came off like you were posting with intention to Prosleytize. It did not seem that you addressed much of any of the contradictions and fallacies of your arguments, you instead accused members of creating fallacies of their own in an attempt to "invalidate" their points.
Now I spent about two hours going through the threads you participated in primarily. I will say this in your favor... Some of our members could have been more friendly and I wouldn't want to see anyone personally attacked for their beliefs.
Would I have banned you? If I was 100% in charge, probably not... Maybe I would have just ignored you after awhile. It is not the moderators that are in power though, it is the community!
If the community feels that you are there to preach and completely disregard all arguments, then so be it.
I was not an admin at the time of your ban and did not take part in the process what so ever that I can assure you. I am merely giving you my perspective on what I've read this far of your participation.
That being said, I am not here to debate or argue ANY of your posts or my opinions on those posts.
Also note the only reason members were ignored was because two thirds of their posts had become a personal attack or blasphemous to the point that the topic was no longer the focus of the discussion.
Again something I mirror here as well, a policy I started long before my work on either atheist forums.
