I'll admit I did read that post, but Warren Stupidity has said the same things in this forum.

What I've learned this week [View all] el_bryanto May 2014 OP
What I've learned this week (and pretty much every week since cbayer May 2014 #1
What I wish is that people like yourself, who are doing the exact same thing: trotsky May 2014 #2
Now you are arguing in favor of diversity? el_bryanto May 2014 #3
Well, you clearly don't want to hear from some points of view. trotsky May 2014 #4
I've listened to you plenty - I just disagree with you el_bryanto May 2014 #6
False trichotomy. trotsky May 2014 #7
And your assumption is that without your help I won't think el_bryanto May 2014 #8
Just giving you another point of view to consider. trotsky May 2014 #9
And there's no way to make your argument without calling believers dishonest or thoughtless el_bryanto May 2014 #10
For the record, once again: trotsky May 2014 #11
Intellectual Dishonesty isn't a form of Dishonesty? el_bryanto May 2014 #13
It is a form of dishonesty, it just isn't identical to "lying". Warren Stupidity May 2014 #17
Nope. trotsky May 2014 #18
You and Warren seem to disagree on this point- maybe you should talk to him el_bryanto May 2014 #24
I don't see any substantial disagreement. Warren Stupidity May 2014 #27
Sinners pay for their sins and then go to a place of glory according to their virtues el_bryanto May 2014 #29
I'm just wondering how long homosexuals are tortured in your world view. Warren Stupidity May 2014 #30
I couldn't give a definitive answer to that el_bryanto May 2014 #31
could be both Warren Stupidity May 2014 #32
Well it's more complicated than that el_bryanto May 2014 #34
Why does your god like to torture? Warren Stupidity May 2014 #67
Do you really think your god would torture you for those things? EvolveOrConvolve May 2014 #78
Well my experience with the non-believer community here at DU el_bryanto May 2014 #79
You maintain the internal contradictions well EvolveOrConvolve May 2014 #80
That's a belittling use of domestic violence. rug May 2014 #84
"the concept of dealing with your sins is more complicated" trotsky May 2014 #85
That's incredibly insulting el_bryanto May 2014 #86
It's insulting to ask how you know something that you claim to? trotsky May 2014 #88
It's insulting to imply that I've never repented and therefore don't know the process nt el_bryanto May 2014 #89
No, the topic was the afterlife. trotsky May 2014 #90
Well not having died I guess I don't know el_bryanto May 2014 #91
Well I hope you can at least find a faith... trotsky May 2014 #92
Curious? 4Q2u2 May 2014 #43
we all end up dead. Warren Stupidity May 2014 #65
No, I think we just explained it differently. trotsky May 2014 #33
Probably disagree. nt el_bryanto May 2014 #35
Why? trotsky May 2014 #36
No offense - but Warren Stupidity - your buddy - is already doing a number on me over el_bryanto May 2014 #37
Mind if I call you & okasha buddies, then? trotsky May 2014 #38
When have i said the latter? el_bryanto May 2014 #41
Oh, sorry for the confusion. trotsky May 2014 #42
Fair enough - i shouldn't have suggested that you and Warren are buddies el_bryanto May 2014 #45
No, I don't find that offensive. trotsky May 2014 #47
It's incorrect at any rate el_bryanto May 2014 #51
Don't be afraid to mince words. trotsky May 2014 #53
For the record, while I think a few athiests are assholes, that's not all of them el_bryanto May 2014 #55
Nor do I think all believers are assholes. trotsky May 2014 #60
I don't mind being told I'm wrong I mind being told I'm dishonest el_bryanto May 2014 #61
That is but one definition. trotsky May 2014 #64
Is there a difference between asserting something and stating that you believe something? nt el_bryanto May 2014 #71
Why, you must have said it when I did. okasha May 2014 #82
That's the great thing about DU. It's all on record. trotsky May 2014 #87
That post was not a broadbrush of all atheists. okasha May 2014 #93
Haters hate, yup they do. n/t trotsky May 2014 #94
That's the goal of this tag team, you know. rug May 2014 #39
True that. Starboard Tack May 2014 #59
It really doesn't accomplish much. rug May 2014 #62
"I don't really want to wade into the other issue that will almost certainly get me banned from DU" Warren Stupidity May 2014 #66
You should alert on me then. Enjoy! el_bryanto May 2014 #68
I generally don't alert on people for having opinions I disagree with. Warren Stupidity May 2014 #69
Exactly - I have said what my position is - but clearly I'm lying el_bryanto May 2014 #73
Well you can alert on yourself and explain that you are lying about your Warren Stupidity May 2014 #74
The quicker way would be just to distribute a few choice words, get alerted on and banned el_bryanto May 2014 #75
Good point. n/t trotsky May 2014 #72
No, okasha May 2014 #5
Excellent advice. LOL Starboard Tack May 2014 #12
What I've learned this week Starboard Tack May 2014 #14
And there's been a marked absense of you in certain threads EvolveOrConvolve May 2014 #97

That's really something I'd expect of you el_bryanto May 2014 #22
That was a reference Goblinmonger May 2014 #23
I don't believe I've ever alerted on any post - if I have it's been years el_bryanto May 2014 #25
Nope. I believe you. Goblinmonger May 2014 #26
I agree that people should stop doing that el_bryanto May 2014 #28
See that last part might set someone off. Goblinmonger May 2014 #49
yes but if i were to say "Well like most atheists, you are thoughtless, dishonest el_bryanto May 2014 #52
Depends on what you meant Goblinmonger May 2014 #54
There it is el_bryanto May 2014 #56
I'm trying to explain my thought process Goblinmonger May 2014 #57
I didn't say you had said it I said you are close to it el_bryanto May 2014 #58

You've got to be careful about those things. cbayer May 2014 #46
I posted a freewood post article in GD once LostOne4Ever May 2014 #48

It's been discussed here as well. el_bryanto May 2014 #96

Jury results stone space May 2014 #102
My, my, a nanny alert. rug May 2014 #103

There's an alert war going on. rug May 2014 #105
That's what I should be doing right now. stone space May 2014 #106
Wonder what gutless asshole alerted on that. el_bryanto May 2014 #107
