He was banned for being an idiot.

Is that a "bannable" offense?

Starting repeated threads with the aim of prosletyizing and "teaching" us the error of our ways in not submitting to this god fellow he preaches the virtue of?

Read through the archive if you care enough. Personally, you can just read through the nonsense he posts on here and it'll be much the same.

EDIT: for evidence none of his stuff was ever deleted, see: http://www.atheistforums.com/archive/vie...42&t=34071 as one example.

So would you prefer he was banned so that you feel more secure in your non-belief in god?

Really don't care either way. He was banned there, he's not banned here, I have no control what other posters post, what they say, or where they say it. The criteria for banning is not ubiquitous to any/all forums.

I am neither secure nor non-secure in my lack of belief in any deity or deities. It is entirely a pragmatic stance based on the available evidence for any/all gods thus far proposed (being a round figure of 0, if we're quantifying it in numerical, easy to understand, forms). If my default position were to change, then he (or indeed any other poster) could enact that transition quite succinctly by doing something quite easy.

Oh you mean like all the rampant suppression of opposing views in theist forums?

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.

Ban hammering only occurs with spammers. I wasn't around to see this guy unfortunately. I am the programmer for the site... I take care of the back-end system functions and php structure.

PS the site crashed due to a serious SQL error, our database was recovered, but was relocated. It is likely that your threads were moved to the archive.

PS PS: I've located your threads. You went 162 posts before getting banned. There are lengthy discussions in Atheistforums.com/archive I briefly went through them but don't have time to read all of your posts. I'll take a look later

He was banned for being an idiot.

If you read through his posts here, nothing's changed.

Actually one thing has.. I am in a place that actually promotes truly free un censored discussion. Which was my point. Af.com is a club house where all member must share one world view, even though they pretend to welcome everyone. I was bann and considered 'an idiot' because no one there could turn me from what I believed, nor would I compromise my belief to fit ever changing rules and definitions of preaching.

If my work is the same as you say and both websites have the same no preaching rule, then why wasn't I ban here a year ago?

The truth was they had to put a very strict no mentioning god (and called no preaching) rule out there. then the mods would ask me questions about God. Then when I answered on three separate occasions they bann me. I came here.

It is when one guy shut down every argument and answered every question line by line without resorting to name calling or cursing. Mind you not all answers given were liked or accepted, but every question I was ask, I made an effort to answer with full sincerity and due diligence to my present understanding of scripture. The problem was there standard anti god anti religion argument s simply did not work when forced to reconcile the biblical account of God and what christianity was supposed to be.

I think they were looking for an easy not thought or thinking required Christian who just mindlessly posts scripted answers... But instead they got someone willing to spend 30 hours a week researching and writting. I was not the person they were looking for. So they move on to people like who this thread is about then make a spectical of the well meaning brother to offset the injustice of banning all of the others who will not compromise their faiths, just to be a member of their message board.

Then it's very lenient.
