My name is icthus
Hello everybody, I have been reading some of your posts and find them quite interesting. Obviously, my point of view is considerably different from yours. I dont want to step into your house uninvited, so if you would like my perspective, let me know which post to go to. If not, I hope y'all have a great day.

If we'd like your perspective? I dunno about the others so I'll say this for me only. If you're talking about your perspective on your cult beliefs I'll simply ask you a couple of questions ... if you are not then I sincerely apologise in advance you may a really nice person who simply likes the company of atheists or the fun of debate (I think Frodo is like that).

Firstly you do get that we are atheists yes? Secondly, why do you think we might want your perspective your introduction carrying as it does the implication that we might not be able to decide for ourselves why we are what we are (don't you think we've done this all before with many, many others like you)? Thirdly (a bit more general) why should we be interested in your Christian beliefs over any other?

As far as I'm concerned you're welcome to post as you wish (and get trashed as you would deserve if you start posting the kind of stuff most theists around here post) but I won't hold my breath on whether you'll turn out to be anything other than just another [expletive deleted] theist.

Welcome to the forum Icthus, does that name mean something by the way? I also noticed that your religious view is "CHRISTIAN", is that diffrent then just "christian"? Or did you just really want to make sure that people noticed it?Big Grin

Ichtus is Greek for fish, also the symbol where Chrisitians identify themselves with. Hence the fishes on Christian bumperstickers for instance.

Welcome to the forums icthus! If you want to make a thread about your religion (or why you reckon we should believe it) then I'd head over to the "Religion" forum.

RE: My name is icthus
Thanks for the welcome everybody!

Giff, there's no difference, I know I am on an athesist forum and I just wanted to make sure everybody knew where I was coming from before you invited me in. As I said, I don't want to come into your house uninvited.

Kyu, I probably didn't word my intro correctly. I am not going to convert you as you are not going to convert me. I could have stayed on a different forum but I do love a good debate. Two people with different perspectives are going to learn more than two with the same point of view. As for the bashing, if you hit me with a stick over the net, it doesn't hurt real bad.

Have a good day y'all, see you tonight, Icthus
