I find it puzzling to aspire to a tepid, lukewarm, no fire in the belly kind of religion, denigrate those who in fact have, and revel in the insipidness of ones own ersatz, homogenized, pasteurized, bowdlerized, cleaned, sanitized and innocuous religious pap.
What IS the point ??
None of your fuckin' business
He's told you "the point", it gives him a support network. That's enough of a "point" for him. You don't think it's enough? That's fine. Doesn't have to be.
He's not telling us what our religion should be. He went out of his way to make that clear. I think that's a courtesy we might reciprocate.

Just as a general thing here, I think it would be best for the religious cause if apostates refrained from posting. (At least from a pro-religion standpoint)
Maybe we need a special forum for pro-religion apostates ?? Might get a little bloody for them however, the actual Faithful will be all over them along with the atheists. I'd advise dumping all the buffet and cafeteria Christians there too.
Christians seem overmatched here as it is, having vociferous heretics munging up the christian side would seem to be an unnecessary self inflicted wound, yet the bleeding obviousness of that seems lost on at least a few of them.
Sad, really . . . . .
