RE: Most Christians...
Are you just trying to provoke, or are you acctually serious? I doubt that you are, but I can't be sure.

So you condone the wholesale slaughter of children because they believe something that makes no sense to you? I'm no fan of the theist but, if this is true (and I am still not convinced this isn't some kind of super troll) you are, you would have to be as far as I can tell, a seriously sick and twisted individual. You're awrae that that is effectively what the Nazi's did to the Jews? That they took men, women and children and exterminated them in various ways (primarily gas) but took useful things from them first (labour, property and so on, even false limbs and gold fillings) ... hell they took the idea of the pogrom to new "heights" by mechanising it!

Let me pose for you a very simple scenario ... you (just you and no one else) are in a room, it's a large room and at the other end of it are 100 theists of various kinds (some are Muslim, some are Christian, some are Hindu, some are Jewish, some are other), they vary in age from 1 to 97 with 18 of them being over 80 years old and 8 of them being under 5. Most of the adults have or have had good jobs, are or have been productive members of society nad are well liked and respected within their communities.

On the table beside you there is a machine gun several belts of ammunition ... given your stated philosophy would you be willing too pick that gun up and shoot them all, each and every one must be dead even if it requires you to walk around the room afterwards and put a bullet in the brain of any that remain alive? Or are you, by your stated philosophy, a coward?

Just the ones going around flying airplanes into buildings, roadside bombings, holding guns, seeking to legislate against my way of life, etc.

That's a bit different from what you've said in earlier posts.

That's because I might decide to include those who proselytize.

And even that is different from some of the things you've said. Earlier I believe you specified pretty much total theist destruction.

It's one thing to have a philosophical disagreement with someone, but it's really immature to "dislike" anyone who disagrees with you.

You'll grow out of it, though.

Have you been reading the other parts of this forum? There are heaps of 14 year olds.
I know.

Believe me, I know.

RE: Most Christians...
Why do people do that?

Why do people say things like, "You must be 14" ... to me it just seems pathetic because it has been so frequently said to me (and I'm 52) because people don't like the way I debate.
