Do some real research and try to learn something
You shouldn't be so closed minded and always forcing your atheistic beliefs on everyone
Atheists would be more likable if they would just live like they expect everyone else to live
Seems as though you still haven't learned anything, I'm not an atheist and I do believe in a Creator, only not yours.

And where have you learned who my creator is?

Oops...hit submit too quick.
So...insert whatever self-descriptive adjective you wish. The point remains the same.

The truth of the matter is, is that you know absolutely nothing about me or my beliefs, you're assuming that I am a Christian as one of your previous posts indicate, nothing could be further from the truth. Before you go about making accusations or assumptions about people of whom you know nothing about maybe you should ask some questions and learn a little bit about the people that you seem to want to make comments about. Now at this point you still know nothing about me accept the fact that I am not a Christian and I assume that it's going to stay that way unless you have some questions you wish to ask and then maybe you might get some information to be able to make a better informed comment.

Christians long-winded and verbose? Not necessarily. Obtuse--without question. They aren't especially interested in taking "No" for an answer, especially when they're trying to "save" you and you aren't jumping on board. (Being told that I'm going to spend eternity in Hell because I won't accept Jesus as my "savior" is not the sort of thing to inspire my trust).

Condoned means allow. I think you read it as condemned.

And just what is it you hope to accomplish by adding your 2¢ worth to a situation that had already been solved? Is it the fact that you wanted to hear your own voice? Or see something in print by you? You know it never ceases to amaze me how some people seem to think that they have to make a comment over a situation that does not involve them to begin with. I made no mistake in what my response was and I know exactly what I said, so who are you to try and tell me what I said or what I mean, my response was not directed to you and the individual I responded to understood me completely. I wonder, do you make it a habit to randomly pick out a post and make a comment that has nothing to do with you...

There was nothing to solve in the first place. I just wanted to point out that you were wrong...sorry.

That is the wonder of a public forum. It involves anyone that is reading the posts. I am a follower of Christ. So if I feel you are misrepresenting the savior of the world, I will let you know.

It doesn't matter who I am. The quote feature is there for a reason.

There was nothing random about it.

to be fair to christians, minus the jerry falwell factor , the christians just dont pump as much wrath and hate as i see in the "atheist" threads.
now that u mention it, i dont see much wrath and hate on buddist or islam threads either. just the non believer threads, atheists. which is really strange bek i know some atheists they are not like the CDF forum people at all. my atheist friends are really nice. i think a bunch of ex christians got on CDF and just sounded off. just my opinion.

That is just a collection of meadow muffins...I have READ the Christian forum, so you are fooling nobody...I far fewer personal attacks from atheists than any other group...
