What's wrong Sad Emo?
Can't play to a hostile crowd? ;-)
Please leave Sad Emo alone, Burn.
She's my Christian buddy.
Hmm, lets change this thread around.
Admit it; what faulty arguments are you most likely to fall for?
I will admit that at times I go with my gut and like some of the things Burns mentions, which really leak down to bad experiences (you kinda of say it differently a few times but in essence, a negative experience colors your whole outlook) which in turns moves my gut and i react to information forming an opinion, especially concerning God as I feel burne in that area.
But then don't we all and that's why we're here?
HOWEVER, you'l be surprised that I am a natural devil's advocate and anything that comes out of anybody's mouth I will at times just go against to go against just to get an argument/dialogue started about anything, from beastiality, aliens, knowledge, handling of child moletors, gender and so on. I think a part of me loves to argue just to argue. But I also get tied up into believing the little information I may have it it suits my own pinion which is not a good charateristic to have.
So your turn- what do you fall for? Stop pointing out each other's faults and take apart your own. Thats how a critical thinker goes about it.
Are you one?
(Oooh, wasn't that a cool way to end a post? I'ts all dramatic and shit. I feel like I could write a Watchtower article... but like, except really intereting 'n stuff.)
