But "discussion, questions and debate" are one thing - flat-out insults are another thing entirely.
I wasn't referring specifically to Goblinmonger when I said that people post things about how we are all idiots, deluded, etc., etc. Those posts are here. I can find you plenty of links.
I have respect for others but it's getting a bit ridiculous in this forum. I am not offended by anyone asking me to explain my beliefs or why I believe the way that I do.
I am offended by "Jeebus", "your evil God", "irrational believers", "Buy-bull" and other references like that. It is hurtful, hateful and lacking in respect.
I'd love to come to this forum and discuss things like the rapture without having a nonbeliever drop in and post, "Your Gawd is evil if he'll kill everyone. How can you believe something so stupid? All believers are delusional." That is not discussion, debate or even a question worth answering.
Gobby, I wasn't trying to single you out. I just don't understand all of the nastiness towards believers from some fellow DUers. It just makes no sense.
I'm not trying to convert anyone here or judge anyone here or condemn anyone here. I'm just asking for respect.
Sigh, I guess Alert is really going to have to be my friend.
