Why are some people so weak in their faith? I was just debating someone about something he said why god loves us even though he lets us suffer... [Spirituality & Religion]

and he (jared something, i think) blocks me.
I assume he said something snotty before he did because i had a notification.
I wonder if he knows i couldn't read it.
Do you have to block a person who disagrees with you to safeguard your belief?

I'm not sure it's always about safeguarding your belief. Sometimes it's just about creating an environment you want to hang out in.

Perhaps. Personally i find hanging out in an echo chamber pointless.
Who wants to just hear echoed at them what they already believe? Where is the growth?

@UnparalleledMonster: Right. But you're assuming that everyone see's this place through the same lens as you. They don't. People come here for different reasons.
And come on. Are online debates from those on the opposite side of issues really about "growth" or are they about ego? I don't grow much from those types of things. Maybe you do though.

@Ynotisay:

Yeah i get that. Some people just want to surround themselves in an unchallenging environment of people who agree with them.
That's fine.
But don't get into a debate and then get mad when you're challenged to defend your point of view. That's all.
