(September 20, 2015 at 11:53 pm)Whateverist the White Wrote: You know, as I think about it, I'm not so sure it is cool to let any theist come in here with the express and sole purpose of promoting his religion. If someone came here wanting to sell rock crushers, they wouldn't last the day. Isn't Randy just pushing his brand? I have to think about this some more.
I basically think he is trolling, more than anything else.
It's good to let some theists in.
It would be better if they were all here to actually converse, rather than proselytize,
but what can you do.
what pisses me off is that I had Christianity effectively force-fed to me for the first 15 years of my life, plus,
but in my experience, most Christians, or any Theist, for that matter, are not interested in hearing our point of view.
That's in the real world, where the status quo generally dictates that we "respect their religion"
...that usually translates into being gracious when they presume that we are Christians, too,
or being gracious when they try to guilt, judge or scare us into becoming Christians,
or not resenting it when they think they're doing us a big favour by inviting us accept their unproven beliefs,
and finally, not resenting it when they try to impose their religion on us, via civil law.
So we have little forums like this, where we rule.
And they are welcome to come, if they want, and discourse with us in the way we wish they would have, IRL,
but instead we get the same old boring shit we get, out there.....for the most part.
