I find it quite interesting that fake Christians have noticeably less tact than real ones do. How often do you hear Ragtime or JohnnyBGood saying things like "you disgusting sinner"? It just isn't done, we want to see you saved - NOT call you names.

I see your point, the thing is that the term "Love the sinner and hate the sin" doesn't help either, it's still considered discrimination by them.

By them, yes. But that's just cause we still disagree with them.

or maybe because they are rejected and discriminated for being born different, at least a great number of them? Perhaps?

Well to be honest, I don't give a flying s**t what you and Anubis want to give me. 8)
I will post here if I want. Do you run this forum? No.

Can a Christian post in any thread they want to or are they relegated to go to this one subforum?

Are you deliberately being stupid?
A Christian can post wherever they want. An atheist can post wherever they want. You want to go round making Christian-only threads then do so, but don't expect people to follow your rules.

Oh, come on... If there's ONE thing you're expert in, it's pretending to be much less intelligent than you actually are. I've never seen a genius like you act SOOOO ret*d when the debate isn't going your way.

Well, gee I was kinda hoping to have a group of people who believe in God with a capital "G" only in this thread. Looks like as soon as I ask for that, everyone else shows up. They're welcome as much as Sopho or Hadron.


You have to be quite full of bitter hatred, or at least quite full of yourself, to pick on someone for not capitalizing a word, regardless of what that word was.

And as for "god" with a capital "G" if you know half as much about him as you purport to know you would know there are several dozens of religions that believe in the same god as you that can neither be classified as Christian or Jewish. Don't forget, christianity wasn't the first religion - its not even the first from where it started. And there have been quite a few branches of since then. I would expect someone who believed in god to at least know a little bit about his followers. But then as you're very act in this thread goes againsts Jesus's teaching, and your trying to "recruit" Christians, your lack of knowledge on god isn't the slightest bit surprising.

True, but would it really be that difficult for you to afford him this modicum of respect? Instead you are deliberately being disruptive and impolite. Sometimes it would be nice to have a religious discussion that was not forced to degenerate into flame wars and bickering. When someone posts a thread, they state the topic they would like to see discussed on it. I imagine it would be rather frustrating to start a thread and see 12 pages of unrelated crap put up by people who don't want to discuss the thread topic. By the way, it's not a "Christian-only thread." He specifically invites Jews and Agnostics in the thread title, and in his initial post he made clear that he would welcome discussion from anyone who was willing to have a serious discussion about monotheism that did not involve the a priori assumption that all religions are false or hostile attacks against God and His followers. If you "know" there is no God, what is it to you if iamnotaparakeet or myself chooses to believe so? Does my belief in a Creator in any way harm you? If not, then why do you choose to waste so much of your time mocking that belief? Grow up. Learn to respect another's opinions, even if they are not your own.

I'm never quite sure how smart you are, but you do dumb-down like Sopho when you feel like not comprehending a fact.
