Why are some christians here scared to debate? [Spirituality & Religion]

Are they really that unsure of themselves? They flood the place with their bullshit and quotes from their holy book. Then they delete opposing views and block anyone who doesn't buy into their delusions.

I've maybe posted one line from the bible on my profile, so no debate there, but I think the debate is the same every freeking single time. It tires you know.

@Classified: I just get tired of christians posting the same old BS as fact, then refusing to back up their claims with evidence or even reasoned argument.

@suzie1960: If you don't like you could just ignore it. I see it only every now and then actually.

@Classified: I seem to see a lot of it. Also, I don't like the idea of people, especially children, being taken in by it. Do you think they would just sit back and allow Satanists to post their views without challenge?

@suzie1960: I see no problems with children becoming Christians. If you don't believe then I can understand you don't like it though. Satanists I prefer in jail truth be told, they do a lot more than post a few verses and hope you're touched.

@Classified: That is the problem. I could say [i]I see no problems with children becoming Satanists. If you don't believe then I can understand you don't like it though. Christians I prefer in jail truth be told, they do a lot more than post a few verses and hope you're touched.[/i] What makes your view more valid than mine?

I consider christianity an insidious blight on society, reeking of misogyny and intolerance. It stifles debate and inhibits advancement. Let's not forget the millions of people tortured and killed "in the name of god" either.

@Classified: What about children becoming members of other religions? Do you keep a list of "approved religions"? Presumably Satanism isn't on it. Why not?

@suzie1960: I can't prove whether your or my view is better just like that.

Calling Christianity an insidious blight is not really tolerant either you know 😉. When you talk about the killing it sounds like Christianity isn't the only one you have problems with though.

@Sharon: Well it's simple. I believe in Jesus so I hope people become Christians and not follow another religion because I simply believe they are not true.

About satanism I've heard some bad stuff. I'll say up front I can't prove it, but I've heard from people I trust they go out to kidnap children for rape en ritual sacrifice.

@Classified: I see. Have you actually met any Satanists or have you just swallowed the christian propaganda about Satanism without question?

I've actually met quite a lot of christians so I know what they can be like - full of hate and completely intolerant of other religions or beliefs.

@Classified: @Sharon: I've met a couple of Satanists. They were nothing like the propaganda claims - just more christian lies/BS.
Classified · M
@Sharon: I don't know if I've met any satanists, I can't tell from the outside. And I've been told in private. No big screens and propoganda banners or a dude with a microphone.

I know there are hateful christians. We're not all the same. And to be honest. You appear to me to be quite hateful and intolerant towards Christianity.

@Classified: You're right, I don't like christians. I don't like the way they look down on others. I don't like the way they think they have the right to force their views on to the rest of us, or tell us how to live our lives.

@Sharon: I'm sorry about the christians whom made you feel that way.
Sharon · F
@Classified: That's the majority of those I've met - and (just for good measure) those I've been told about.
Classified · M
@Sharon: I've heard about them too. Hardly ever meet them though.
Sharon · F
@Classified: You're lucky. You can see some of their hate filled and intolerant posts on this site. A lot of them have blocked me because I challenge their bullshit.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Sharon: A lot have blocked me too. They hate people who don't buy into their BS. :)

@Sharon: I'm actually not paying attention to their posts, so dunno 😅.
