    LisaRose works tirelessly to get me to behave, but I don't think I can hold it in any longer.

    Hey, even I have my limits. It's annoying when people come and start a thread but don't stay and defend their OP, even when legitimate arguments are made. My feelling on these types of threads is that you will never convince the hard core believer of anything. They have their mind made up and come here only to give their point of view. But it is not futile to discuss these things, because if you look at the number of views of these threads versus the number of posts you will see many come just to read. Some of these people may not want to post themselves, but are open minded enough to consider the evidence. Hopefully those people will get it even if the others don't.

    Hey D-M:

    Have you located that information yet 'proving' your claim that no (atheist) Chinese has invented anything in the last 1,000 years? I'm dying to read that....

    It was not me that made that comment ADCMS.. I would never be so reckless. But you thinking it was me makes your previous statment make sense now.

    A quick search will show the Chinese have been extremely busy in the inventions game.

    Hey D-M Paris :

    .

    LOL. Sucks when I have to quote myself.

    Again, my apologies, Dis-Member. I hope the brief time you spent in "Paris-Land" due to my error woke you up and helped you to appreciate this side of "normal". LOL.

    I think its important to realize why JWS apologetics or other Faith believers that do come here start to be disrespectful to other forum members is

    mostly due the presenting information that is in opposition to their own held beliefs.

    They cant logically argue from a rational evidential standpoint so making personal Ad Homien attacks are the only viable solution.

    .

    Its also typical for these people to post an attack or accusation on to people then not debate the issues they initially presented.

    This really shows their relentless unwillingness to take the blinders off and open their minds.

    Their Religion or religion itself gives them the excuse to be ideologically and intellectually lazy and apathetic.

    Like LisaRose said:

    What happens when a JW meets someone at the door who actually knows their Bible and asks hard-hitting questions? The JW never goes back. No surprise they use the same tactic on online forums.

    A JW simply cannot defend their own beliefs, so their only recourse is to tuck tail and run.
