Is there a need for a Christian Autism/Asperger's forum?

You mean like the 'opinion' that I think you're being nasty towards someone with no provocation?


So basically you decided what the other guy thought without any proof whatsoever.

I also note that in there you tried to use the generalizations trick, trying to claim that someone didn't have 'the full piture' there too. How strange.



Saying that someone hates christians because they think that they are all the same is an attack, except to a person who is trying to kid themselves.


For which you now provide no certifiable evidence whatsoever to back up this fact. Thus simply an opinion. We will find out whether it is a lie.


Of which you again provide no proof of where or how this was done at all, thus rendering this as little more than an attack on other people, and more over a defensive attack that stems just crriticism by portraying it as something that it is not.

Now I know that this is false. Nobody has demonized you here. The only demonizing that has been going on right now is from your own mouth, not anyone else's. We can look above for clear evidence of that. So this is contradictory, even hypocritical. Why would an atheist demonize anyway? It would be counter-productive to the points he makes, the truths he tells, the science and reason he uses to explain things.


Give me proof.

Who is Jacob?

Then do so rather than provide one unquoted author tract after another. Again, anyone can look up as to where Scythe has demonized.


We now need proof of these otherwise if unproven, outrageous and vile accusations.


This sounds more like a person who is crotchety that the person they are facing isn't showin doubt in what they profess.


Yes, yes intolerance. The atheists are intolerant. Except that one christian believes that we are tools of someone else for no apparent reason except her own bigotry and you have accused others of demonizing whilst your demonizing of the other fellow on here is what got you in to hot water with me in the first place. Atheist Intolerance, people. Standing up to Christians.

Well can you provide evidenc of this without using the most useless attempt at quotation that I have ever seen? And that's saying something.

If Oodain what what what? What does this even mean?


Now I know that nobody has actually said this. So yeah, misattribution, and twisting.

Well nobody's advocating a Turducken made out of Christians so I don't know how this applies exactly... Cathotestadox, with a side of Mormayonnaise.

For which there is no evidence once again. What is it with the christians on this particular thread and feeling that they don't have to provide evidence?


Thus coming from the person who accused someone of hating christians whilst providing no evidence of his accusations about atheists, thus essentially demonizing them. I'll be honest here Scythe, you're not even a good Christian.
Vindictiveness and triteness from a Christian. To be honest I am very angry at this two-faced act.

Christianity is regarded by the ignorant as true, by the knowing as false, and by the politicians as useful.

Hmm I have never came across a single ignorant verse by Jesus in the Bible Religion is like the force in Star Wars.

Example.

The Force, in some occasions and descriptions, seems to be rather attentive and conscious despite the initial perception of it as impersonal. For instance, the Force itself impregnates Shmi Skywalker resulting in the birth of Anakin, the "Chosen One"; this is strongly similar to the Nativity Story of Christianity and denotes at least some personality or consciousness to the Force, at least to the point that it is conscious but rarely personal with the universe. This parallel is undermined by the discussion of Darth Plagueis, who was said by Palpatine to be "so wise and so powerful that he could actually use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create life."

Clearly, a "Chosen One" of the Force is similar to the Christian view of Jesus, in that it is an "Anointed" or "Chosen" or "Elect" One that redeems the Light and brings greater balance to "the Force". Christ's death on the cross as a means of deliverance is also echoed by the destruction of the old republic and the Jedi order as part of the fulfilment of Anakin's destiny to bring balance to the force. Furthermore, Christ is considered by Christians to have had no father and to have been conceived by the Holy Ghost, just as Anakin, the supposed "Chosen One", is assumed to have been conceived by midi-chlorians, as he too had no father.

Another Example.

The monastic tradition from Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism religions is echoed in the strict code by which the Jedi live. The Jedi do not seek after material possessions. Both Obi-Wan and Yoda spent considerable time living as hermits. The Jedi code also forbids romantic love of any kind - making it similar to Catholic vows of celibacy.

The ethical values of the Jedi Order also bear similarities to that of the philosopher Immanuel Kant: whose ethical theory is based around actions motivated by duty not passion, and includes many moral maxims similar to Jedi values. The reverse can also be applied to the Sith, i.e. Sith are motivated by passion not duty.

Or you could just look up Philosophy and religion in Star Wars you can not see the force but both the Jedi and the Sith use the force.

Are you calling me a Tool of the Devil? I have said some negative things about Christianity and almost won (EDIT: had a good chance of winning) the WP Strident Atheist Election a couple months ago. If you are calling me a Tool of the Devil, I am going to do something concerning that.

It seems obvious that the majority of people posting in this thread see no valid reason for having a separate and exclusive forum dedicated solely for use by Christians.

This is aside from the fact that Alex (the owner) has stated that if such a forum were created in WP, he'd have to create one for every other religion.

Since there seems to be more than 30,000 unique Christian religious systems, this opens up concerns for which one gets precedence, which others should be included (and in what order), and which ones should be omitted entirely.

I do not need such a fourm to be created it's why I have church, I study all religons because I am curious of their beliefs.

OMG!! ! What an amazing concept! Why didn't anyone think of this before?

People who want to exercise their religious beliefs could attend a church, a mosque, a temple, or whatever their god-loving hearts desire!

This would make religious forums on public websites completely unnecessary and virtually useless.

If we're not careful, though, this whole "church thing" just might catch on. Then there'd be no more fundies trolling for abuse on WP. What shall we do then? Oh, whatever shall we do without our reality-bashing fundies?

Atheists will start to respect religious people, the same day that they stop shoving their opinions on how other people should live their lives down everyone else's throats.

Until then - expect no respect! Expect to be criticized, expect being challenged, expect to defend your opinion - and above else, expect to be asked to provide evidence. We do not give a s**t about the concept of belief.

Our god is Truth. Yours is not.

IMO, you are welcome to stay, but FFS get of your high-moral-horses!

And I think all the utter nonsense contained within your post provides evidence of why so many rational people have a strong distaste in their mouths every time some Fundie Christian starts whining about persecution. The most charitable interpretation imaginable for this post is that you are deliberately satirizing persecution-complex fundies ( see Poe's law ).



What a nice example of why Fundie Xianity has no intellectual respectability nowadays. It's nice to see this paranoid mentality that people who regularly own you with rational arguments are "Satan's pawns", but since God is all powerful Satan and hence rational pwners of Xianity are all part of his plan as well. So I guess the people who regularly trounce your lack of logic are also God's pawns, as well.



What, people with the strength of JESUS can't withstand a few intellectual criticisms so as to "spiritually develop"? I guess Jesus must be pretty damn weak, then. Any intellectually honest person, btw, considers self and other criticism a crucial part of self-growth (I guess this just goes to show how perverted, harmful, and unhealthy fundie Xianity is).



Amazing. Satan can use people as pawns at will yet is unable to get passed part-time moderators!



The really sad thing is that there's a half-decent chance you actually believe that crap.

Fotojunkie's description of Satan's chessmastery of various atheist "pawns" is rather amusing, as well. If Satan really wanted to divert poor, wittle ol', fundies from THE TRUTH™ s/he'd probably be a bit more ingenious, wouldn't you think? Rather then getting atheists to hurt poor wittle ol' fundies feelings by destroying their beliefs, s/he'd get the most respect members of ChristianAspie forums and subtly pervert the orthodoxy while claiming to uphold it to really derail people from the "straight and narrow path". Which, using fotojunkie's conspiratorial logic, forces me to ask: Fotojunkie, are you a pawn of Satan??! !

You just made my head go numb.
