I want to play with the Christians...

Maybe we could do you a favor, Loki. We could start a thread called "Why Are Fundie Xtians So Stupid?" and blast their reliance on their stupid fucking bible and their "faith." Then you could merely link to the thread and say "Look what those heathens are saying about us!"

Yes, and then make it easy for them to find this thread.
Excellent plan.

We'd probably have to think of a better title.....and refrain from calling them fucking fuckwits and I confess that I'm one of the worst offenders when it comes to that.
But for just one thread, I think I could manage it.

Well, first off, asking questions like "I have an atheist friend who says..." just gets you scripture quoted and messages of Jesus loves you.... so thats a waste of time.
Setting up a thread called funides are stupid is not my idea of fun either.... i want a constructive debate. As for trolling, well, yes and no. It would depend on the actual route. What i wrote in my original post was written in frustration. Many of my posts were deleted just because they were in Christian only areas (ok, its the rule, but what a stupid rule... do we have Atheist only sections? And on their site its 90% of the site like this). I think Eilonnwy said it best when she said they had carved out their comfy spot.... yup, I imagine most of them do not want to be challenged. @Thor - sure, let me know the link. I can play nice with people's opinions (even if i think they are idiotic) and even respect the person... but not the idea. PS: So, yes, i'm dropping this idea.

I'm signed up as a Christian there and it's still pretty restrictive. Reading this I realise that faith over there is not a choice, and therefore the discussion isn't Christian as you don't have the choice to be good... it's enforced.

If I respond to someone with the intent of playing devil's advocate for them (something I have been doing much more frequently of late)... am i trolling? Edit: though it is true that if his intent is only to provoke or insult: that would be trolling. Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam

For example, the bit about killing children who disrespect their parents. Say my child has been swearing at me, and asking for advice whether i should stone them to death publicly or do it while they sleep... of course, this would get the mods down on my ass super fast, but I wouldn't call it trolling, after all its just spouting stuff that they are meant to believe (although they do like to cherry pick what to believe). Kind of like in Red Dwarf where Rimmer explains that his parents were 7th Day Hoppists and on every 7th day they hopped everywhere, because of a misprint in their copy of the bible which said that the 3 greatest things were Faith, Charity, and Hop.

I think the catholic churches would love nothing better than to drop the whole OT, it must be one hell of an embarrassment for them.
