this topic was inspired by one of fhn's comments on the 'warzone' thread, so i'll just restate my post there .
.. "i've been wondering for a while now if ridicule really is an unacceptable feature in debate - it certainly isn't a valid form of argumentation.
the thing is, some individuals really do come out with the most laughable nonsense and parade it as a serious proposition that merits attention.

The historical reference and the body of early followers are most consistent with their having been a real man named Jesus, likely a very charismatic, cynic sage who made the mistake of visiting Jerusalem.
You really do need to watch the Carrier vid if you believe this.

Perhaps there was a King Arthur, and a Robin Hood. Of course the legends are nonsense, but the central figure just may have existed.
... and just may not have. However, you do raise a good point in that the evidence for the existence of Robin Hood and King Arthur are flimsy, even at best and yet, their legends persist, even today - oh, just like jesus in fact.
i'm not naming names, but i just want to encourage people on here or on reddit or twitter, and tell you that you do not have to tolerate people who act like schoolyard bullies in the way they speak to you online.
i think anonymity is a big part of it.
they feel like there is zero accountability so they can be a bully all they want.. i recommend just ignoring or blocking anyone who is verbally abusive or treats you like schoolyard bullies treated you.. life is way too short to spend any time dealing with those kinds of people..

My father survived Belsen - just.
You are right - people are people.
What did christards do?
They helped to smuggle the Nazis that were responsible out of Germany to South America.
No I'm not Jewish. It wasn't just the Jews that they put in concentration camps.

You claim that we are not tolerant - at least you claim that some of us aren't. Yet, no one has banned you from this forum.
You have been allowed to post as you see fit.
Yes, your posts have been criticised, and not without good reason in my opinion, but you are free to write what you will and are free to do so in the future. This is a tolerant forum.
It's a great pity that we cannot do likewise on christard forums.
I have been on christard forums and been extremely polite, as have countless others before and after me. Once we proclaim our Atheism, that's it. We are ejected and banned for life without reason. Not only that, our IP addresses are circulated to other religtard forums so that we can't even register on them.
This forum claims to be tolerant and tolerant it is because it hasn't banned you. It allows you to say what you see fit.
The people on this forum are also open minded but not so open minded that their brains fall out.
Consider and look that up in your Funk and Wagnalls before you go bitching and moaning about the treatment you receive on this forum.

Awe shucks. This isn't a flower arranging forum folks. It's for a discussin' matters religin.
When two or more people talk about riligin, diverse views emerge, nostrils flare, tempers are lost, wars are fought and millions die. It's been this way since christards invented their god (whom they call Yahoo), jesus and their particular type of homophobic, mind-numbing, tedious shyte which they encapsulated within something they call the babble. Until riligin is wiped from the face of this planet, and that day couldn't come soon enough for me, it will be ever thus. So, ffs, get over it. For someone to come on to a forum such as this and then to whine and complain about bullying is, IMHO, a complete and utter twat with the IQ of a plant pot holder. Now just get real or peace off.
most meetings and congregations stress the idea that jehovah's witnesses will live forever on a paradise earth.
most jws are always "comforting" others about how death is only temporary.
then you get those jws who are scared of death.
Until about the 13 century, or there abouts, Man did not fear death to the extent he does now. It was just part of life. It appears that the fear of death only came about as a result of the spread of christinsanity and christards making people aware of their invention of heaven and hell. Prior to that point, when Man died, he automatically went to the 'afterlife' which was ONE place, not two.
Christards spread their shyte upon the Earth and used their concept of heaven and hell to control the populace. Then, they come along with their religion that shows people how to be good little christards (obey the church and give it all of your worldly goods) so that the church can live a fat cat life and you can avoid going to hell.
Thanks christards for that. You got people scared of death.
i am on here as another member, but even with a username and not revealing my identity, i am still too embarrassed to use it.
had to make up a new one.
that being said.... my boyfriend is watching pornography, and it seriously hurts my feelings.

If someone told you all that you have told us, what would you tell them?
in the first century ,did not christians who took the lead , have to earn their own keep ?
and provide for their own sustenance ?
their are numerous texts that support that position are their not ?.
Religion is just an excuse for the idle to get rich at the expense of the gullible.
Religion is a means for the controlling to exert their control over the gullible.
Religion - masochism controlled by sadists.
