by MagicMItchJensen in

i want you to see how fake people are who pretend their open-minded, dr. erhman try's to reason with someone whose mind is totally made up.

the topic is whether there was a man named jesus and paul, the infidel atheist get's owned because he shows his true colors!.

1. when would you tell this fool he stupid or willfully ignoring the facts?.

A person could make a very good blog post out of all the regurgitated outdated claims made by atheists in this thread.

I think I'm gonna do that.

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..

nicolaou,

You said:

FT, the forum doesn't need this. Grow a thicker skin and understand the heat that a forum full of cult survivors can generate. If you don't like it do as the aforementioned poster did - successfully I might add - leave and start your own site.

You are telling me, a fellow cult survivor, to get thicker skin and to expect, and put up with, and just accept bad treatment from a "cult support group,"? Otherwise I must be shunned, ridiculed, or banished to another website?

In what universe does that make sense?

Sounds waaaaaay too much like Disfellowshipping.

DJS,

Let me see if I understand you right:

You're saying that I, as a moderate Christian, should have EXPECTED to be bullied on a website that proclaims itself to be "friendly and tolerant?"

Isn't that the exact same attitude as people who say that women who "dress like sluts" can EXPECT or DESERVE to be raped?

Again, not naming names, but it seems some of the militant atheists and anti-theists have adopted the EXACT same practices of exclusivity, being one of "the elite," and ridicule & name-calling propaganda tactics that have been used by JW elders and leaders.

"Only atheists have the truth!"

"All theists are ignorant or liars!"

"Only atheists are intelligent!"

DJS,

There are bad religious people just like there are bad non-religious people.

Surely it's not open-minded or logical (actually it is a logical fallacy) to look at the bad religious people and then declare that all religion is.

In addition, why do atheists (9% of the population, maybe) think they have a monopoly on truth, or that they are so superior to the other 91% of people?

I'll just say again, that almost all the major positive world-changing events in history have been done by theists.

I just hope all the lurkers can use this thread to identify the bullies and then know whom to interact with and whom NOT to interact with on this website.

Bonsai,

How is that attitude any different from the one where JW elders force victims to confront their abusers?

Do you also excuse, justify, and agree with bullies at school who pick on nerds?

This attitude is very, very prominent on this website.

Why should I interact or speak to abusive people on here or anywhere else?

Dario,

Would you tolerate someone being belligerent, rude, calling you names, saying you were stupid if you were having a discussion in your house?

If not, why would you tolerate this online?

Jonathan Drake,

Are you saying that a person must reject faith in order to be a good person or to actively make the world a better place?

Can you list 5 atheists who changed the world for the better?

I can name hundreds of theists/deists:

* William Wilberforce

* Abraham Lincoln

* George Washington

* Martin Luther King Jr.

* John F Kennedy

* Francis Collins

* Isaac Newton

* Barack Obama

* Mother Theresa
