Is it okay for Christians to post here?

[Pete]

Hi folks

I just joined. First off I'm not an atheist, I'm a Christian. I wanted to introduce myself, let you know that and then see if anybody objected to me joining in on the discussions here. Does anyone mind?

Its not like I came here to try to convert anyone or try to convince you that its not possible to know that God doesn't exist. Christians have the bad reputation of going around trying to convery everybody they see to Christianity. I'm not one of those people. I believe that Jesus wanted us to spread the Word, not force it down people's throats.

You see, I belong to a Christian discussion forum. There is an atheist who joined and seems to post for the sole reason to convince Christians that God doesn't exist. I can't for the life of me figure out why he really posts there though. I figured that, at best, he might like a good discussion on the logic of the whole God exists/doesn't exist or perhaps he likes to think of himself as open minded or something along those lines. When I was thinking about all of this it occured to me that I really don't know what atheists think and perhaps it'd be useful to me to learn what their opinions are and what kinds of arguements they accept for the non-existance of God.

I also hate it when Christians give terrible arguements too. So I figured that I might even be able to contribute in that sense, i.e. I can hone my skills regarding evolution etc. I believe in evolution wholeheartedly. I'm also very into science so I think I might enjoy the conversations about science.

While I'm not here to convince anybody that God exists I wouldn't like to hide the fact that I'm a Christian.

If there are any objections to me posting here then I will respect your wishes and leave. Thank you for considering me.

Best wishes

Pete
