So, if you would all PLEASE show a bit of restraint and understand that I invited her here because we don't have enough knowledgeable theists here and of the ones that are here - they either preach, try to convert, spin fantastic tales of bullshit or they engage in a circle jerk of arguments that seemingly go nowhere.
I wanted her here because, I appreciate the views she has given. She has stood up for me and MY views when several of the fundies on my facebook friends list chose to bash me for my opinions and thoughts. She gets it. She really does and if you all just give her a chance, you might come to understand that.
First, I don't appreciate being told how to interact on the forum. If I see bullshit, I might call it out, and that's my prerogative.
Second, it's nice you appreciate her views and that she's stood up for you. That doesn't mean anything to the rest of us except that it's a nice thing to do. It doesn't mean her views are any less batshit than anyone else's.
Why don't you do you, let her do her, and let me be me?
First - I didn't tell anyone how to interact on the forum. I made a request. There's a difference. Note the usage of the word "PLEASE". I posted my thoughts because *I* felt some others on here were being a little too hard. That is all. But it seems like right off the bat, the condescending attitudes start. All I asked is that people give her a chance. Also, I did not call anyone out on it. It was a general request, not targeting anyone in particular. Guess that was asking for too much? No?
