Atheist vs. Christian wank!
The Pointlessness of Theist/Atheist Debate.

Six pages of self-righteous behavior, name-calling, and accusations of insanity on both sides.

We have an atheist, MadMordigan, saying things like:

Reading a conviced theist's arguments is a little like visiting a mental ward. You gain a glimpse into alien forms of thinking. While I admit its fun to point and laugh at the retards, I often come away sad and somewhat frightened by them.

Seriously.

We have a Christian, Douglas J. Bender, claiming he prayed a demon off his roof.

Seriously.

I'm an atheist, and like debating with Christians, but when it gets to this point, all you can really do is point and laugh.

I prayed a demon off my roof once.

Okay, so it was more like a cat and I said, "Jesus, not again! Get your goddamn ass off that roof!"

But it's close.

The way people keep saying "prove to me your god exists" makes me feel like I'm reading the script to a really, really bad Christian rock opera.

Man, I was just pondering today whether I should point wank from there.

Yes, theist/ atheist debate is pointless. Far better to stick to reading the sex polls, and of course the legendary If You Have Set Yourself on Fire, Do Not Run

*grin* Yeah, the Weekly Nutwatches are pretty good too. There's a lot of good stuff there; unfortunately, someone always gets serious in some thread or another.

Verily, serious and humping Darwin fish do not mix.

Although I must confess that I enjoy seeing fifteen-year-old private school kiddies with cribbed arguments get their butts whupped in the Evolution forum.

Heh- I am a Christian, and yes, it gets really really annoying when my friends (both religious and non-religious) start insisting that you can argue people one way or another. Dude. There's just some things you can't prove. Accept it and move on.

*grin* I've pretty much given up the debating, unless someone approaches me directly.

Getting friends upset because of religious discussion= Not-fun.
Ripping Jehovah's Witnesses a new one when they show up at my door= Fun.

Hee,hee- one of my step dad's friends had had trouble with a couple of Jehovah's Witnesses ladies who kept ignoring the "No Tresspassing" signs posted around his property.

So one day he answered the door buck naked and invited them in. They never bothered him again. :-D

*sad* I never have Jehovah's Witnesses come to my door. I never get to have any fun.
