Debating
October 7, 2009 at 6:20 am
I am an athesit period. I Know why I do not believe. I know nothing about debating or arguing my beliefs. I don't like to debate and argue atheism or anything for that matter with anyone. I am a closset atheist. I avoid religious discussions and born again christians. Its just not in my nature to argue and debate. I have hte atitude I will believe what I believe an you can believe what you do.
I am als not sure that I am a deep as some here. I dont know a lick about the principle of debate and the various types of arguments. i just do not believe there is a god. But I feel out of place here not knowing how to debate. And nott being deep enough in my philosphical musings, I guess.

If you don't like to debate, then don't. You can do pretty much anything you like to do on this forum, even rude jokes are allowed. No one is forcing you to debate anyone.

Don't think about "debating". Just discuss what you think about it all, if you so wish. Dont even worry about debating style.
Just watch out for those who would come along and attempt to confound you by using latin phrases and hollering "Fallacy!" at every statement you make.
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

Rude jokes
Shocking!!
So do you have a good reason for being an atheist then?

Me? Yes, I looked at the various religions and their stories and didn't believe any of them.

And does said person try to use 'big and sometimes wrongly defined words' to make themselves unreachable by the average person?
