Comment on 101 Christian Quotes by lollipopan

So you believe the bullshit that is God then? here's one of my fav quotes about religion "Religion easily has the best bullshit story of all time. Think about it. Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man…living in the sky. Who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you. He loves you and he needs money."

In what way did I not present this fairly? Your messages are there in full, with my comments added to show my view.

As for your name, there are plenty of Jennies around who this could have been, as with most names. This is the internet, not some local newspaper in a village where everyone knows everyone else. From the name "Jennie" there isn't a single way of determining who this was, and you know it.

It isn't your right at all. I could have easily placed your full name and not broken any laws, but I chose not to because I have a certain level of respect for the privacy of people. If you still think this is a privacy issue, here is a name: "Michael". Now find me the person to whom I am referring and I'll give you $1,000.

Again, no comment needed. I've addressed all these points before. Microevolution does automatically mean macroevolution exists, since macroevolution is simply microevolution over a long period of time. We know microevolution happens, we know the amounts of time are vast enough, and thereby we know macroevolution exists.

I have nothing to say because you keep bringing up discussed points. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about if you think macroevolution has been observed, because observation of macroevolution is done through the fossil record. Nobody has seen a continent move over a bed of lava yet we have continental drift explaining how mountains were formed…or don't you believe in that either?

I'm not infallible; but it doesn't require me to be infallible for you to be completely and utterly wrong on all the points you've made so far. Why should I admit to being wrong when you haven't shown how I am wrong.

I don't argue against any form of religion; I have no problems with Buddhism and Hinduism. Atheism is not a truth I subscribe to; it's a worldview I subscribe to. It could easily be wrong.

That fundamentalist Baptis church that is constantly disrespectful of everyone that doesn't share their views, so you are disprespectful of them because they don't share you apparent view that you should be respectful of those who believe different things. Like me, who believed differently so you mocked me. How exactly have you earned my respect?
Maybe you see this as "funny" so its ok in your mind. I don't know. Unlike you, I'm not going to assume that I know what someone else is thinking. Hopefully, you'll even apologize and prove me wrong about that.

But I doubt you'll never admit that you're wrong. You're an arrogant, stubborn Brit with a computer. And just because you didn't agree with what I said, you posted it online, and didn't tell me until after the fact.
Yes, I would see that as intollerant. You're just like the Christians who don't let anyone else believe anything other than what they believe. I didn't even want to tell you what I was thanking you for. I said you wouldn't understand. And then you kept pushing and pushing, so I figured, someone who's begging doesn't really have a right to mock me when I didn't want to say it in the first place. But you did. And then when I tried to end the conversations because you kept shoving your beliefs down my throat, you wouldn't stop. Its like you needed the last word and if I didn't respond, you made it seem like that meant you were right. So in the end, I actually had to block you to get you to stop. I'm sorry, but that's worse than the Christians who "shove" their beliefs down atheists throats. The ones that haven't earned your respect so you throw snowballs at them.

Except that there is a difference. This was "rude". I didn't want you posting this so everyone could see and if you had asked me about it before hand, I would have told you that. You assumed a lot of things. This whole thing was to make me look like an idiot. Even at the beginning, you started out with "this is quite an amusing story". You didn't even try to present what I was saying fairly. YOU didn't agree, so you mocked me. Without even asking whether I was ok with you showing everyone what I said in private. It is my right to let my full name be known and that would be a choice. You took away some of my anonymity by putting my first name next to it. Like you said, that's MY right. But you don't care about my rights.

that's not true. its not only weak if you don't assume "form" both sides. it can still be weak if you do.
yeah, i'd have to say that your argument is weak, considering that you didn't FAIRLY assume from both sides.
and its definitely unprofessional.

Again…you have nothing to say. I've yet to see you admit you're wrong about anything. Are you infallable? Is that why you don't believe in God? Because in your mind, you are a god?
I'd like to study you more. You seem to be a prime example of a new personality disorder APA is considering to add to its 2011 list of disorders.
