The Atheist Obsession with Insulting Christians

[KevinM1]

You are aware that many theists, when they learn their coworkers/neighbors/friends/family are atheist do a lot worse than be mean online to them, correct?

I mean, you're talking to a group of people widely considered to be inherently bad and untrustworthy.  Seriously.  Polls have shown that it's atheists, not Muslims, or satanists, or scientologists, or Mormons that are the least trusted.

So, when you and people like you pop in and do nothing but attempt to push your bullshit, yeah, we react badly.  Especially when you demand to be treated better than we are in real life by many (most?) people waving your flag.

Again, C_L and kingpin are liked here because they're trying to get to know us.  You're merely interested in being an adversary.  And so you're treated as one.

No, Kevin.

I'm interested in discussion.

I present my position and hope for a courteous response.

No, you're interested in being an adversary.  You present a position and then want people to attempt to refute it.  You even mentioned refuting this thread's OP to abaris.  That's adversarial.  Contrast that with C_L, who has started many, many threads on here, where she starts with a question - "What do you think about X?" - and discussion flows from it naturally.  You want someone to prove you wrong (even though you routinely ignore refutations as though they simply don't exist).  She wants to know what we think of certain things, and why.  She is far, far better at generating legitimate, genuine conversation than you are.  And, like with so many other things, you'd be better off (and far more respected, if not liked) if you followed her example rather than your flaccid attempt at playing copypasta professor of apologetics.

Moreover, you're only interested in your one narrow thing - apologism.  You don't care about getting to know us.  You don't care about actually being a member of the community.  To you, we simply represent an intellectual challenge for you to practice on.  You merely want to present your five minimal facts over and over and over.  Again, C_L hangs out in the off-topic section.  She plays Mafia.  She goes into the atheism section and asks questions.  Same with kingpin.  They're not here to massage their egos, or to win a debate, or to use us as guinea pigs.  They're here to learn about us in totality.

And I'm honestly disappointed that so many people humor you.

But, yes, you're merely interested in being an adversary.  You may not think so.  You may not believe me.  But the evidence proves otherwise.  Consider that my one minimal fact about you.

Finally, until you decide to actually be a member of this community, this is my final interaction with you.
