So you can’t prove he doesn’t exist. That’s what I thought.

Keep thinking . Someday you might hit on something worth thinking about .
Who knows, you might be able to have an adult discussion.

It's all about blind faith my child.

No wondering one.
Nothing blind about it.
Look out your window.

Push? .. If its counter to your "open" mind its a push? And then the label fanatics and cultist are quickly put on the table. I like extremist .

It's all a fine until what one practices or believes is called into question by "fanatics" .
Lib definition of fanatic: One who questions anything I practice or believe.
Tolerance is not enough. Accept or you're just unacceptable..the attack is on. Discussion is out.

Yeah.. If its counter to your "open" mind the label fanatics and cultist are quickly put on the table... I like extremist .

exactly . liberals used to preach tolerance. now that only applies if you're a muslim. Christians are fair game for the constant attacks on their belief system.

I lived in one of the most liberal places you'll find outside the coasts, Santa Fe, NM, for almost two years. Just going to church on Sunday got me constant loaded questions and suspicious looks from my coworkers. Been my experience wherever I've been that it's not enough that they don't believe. They can't stand that you do. Eats at them. Have to make little snickering comments. Amazes me that the group that is so quick to bring up racism, homophobia, etc can't see their own prejudices.

I can't come up with a word that describes your mentality that won't get deleted.

Thanks for playing.
Better luck next time.

It's not enough that non-believers don't believe- they have to deliberately click on a thread titled "religion" and prove with their extensive and vast knowledge that believers don't really know what we are doing. Yet it is us that are pushing our beliefs on them; blows my mind. If you don't want to believe, then don't. Leave us that do alone.

Goes both ways.
Why is it not enough to believe?
Why do evangelicals have to push their beliefs on everyone else?

Has an evangelical pushed his beliefs on you? If a religious person is constantly in your face telling you to repent and be saved or else you'd have a point. Non-religious people have in my experience no restraints. They rail against religion all the time and can get down right nasty with their vitriol. What it comes down to is a Christian believes he must share the gospel but if people reject it the Bible says to move on. It's done out of love and concern. A nonbeliever however will often get angry very quickly if the subject is brought up. And if they know you're a Christian they'll often seek to attack and marginalize you in situations important to your life, like work.

Not here.

You bit Van.
He could care less.

Yes. They won't shut up about it.

I've never experienced that.
Not sure what kind of weirdos you're hanging around.

And yet another delete.
You'll just have to continue playing with yourself and having self proclaimed victories.

Well there you have it.

When you seek to twist and distort rather than have an honest conversation it means, as the Bible says, it's time to shake the dust from my sandals and move on.
