My point is that words are very powerful. And You can bless with them and you can curse with them.

If you are saying that I am guilty of an attack on the Atheist then I am guilty. It is apparent that my words were taken very seriously, and rightly so. Don't forget that I offered a choice on how to proceed in my first post.

One more time that you're wrong.

I will go now .

Good thinking

It's an open forum, not a private chat.

More innocence and now I'm a meaningless, raving sinner going off topic, and put in a presumptive atypical box. And doubling down that words are meaningless, by the self-proclaimed definer of words, while claiming words to be inactive.
We are harmless. Even if we (atheists) did curse and damn you, it wouldn't matter at all. if you just posted:" " and carried on posting your views and rationale and evidence, our words would not hurt you in the least. Just as i don't give a toss about the blasting and venom of the Christians here, but only about the arguments they make.

And there, words can be devastating. Words, used to convey sound and convincing ideas can show previously held beliefs and viewpoints to be quite mistaken. And that's the most powerful thing in the world, because you can blow a man to bits but that's easy compared to changing his mind.

Anyone can respond to anyone here. the 'I wasn't talking to you' ploy won't wash any better than the "I'm not arguing..Just telling" gambit.

Anyone here putting a point is making a claim.

Anyone here can comment on and challenge it

No law or forum -rule requires them to respond but, if they don't...they have lost the case. That's why we secondary scum (I still love your screen - name ) find ourselves trapped into responding to mere idiotic spamming, because we fear if we don't, the unwary may think we were unable to answer.

Religious preaching, Polemic and apologetics don't irritate me, much less abuse, insults and canard. They amuse me rather and are just more arguments that can be turned against the users to show how weak, poor and irrational their arguments are. As has been said of the ones who do this most egregiously, they are worth 2 divisions to us as a good Bad example.

But what can be irritating is finding myself compelled to Anti -atheist spamming which I'd rather ignore.

Very short sighted, while claiming to be omniscient.

Noah is a man who accepted all judgement in that time of lawlessness. I also accept all judgement, from both God and man, in all weakness. So go on and claim your supposed freedom to curse me, spit on me, hurl insults at me, stab me, cut me to pieces, burn me at the stake and any other thing that makes you feel strong. As I am most thankful to see past it all.

If this is the only way for me to express love in this world, then so be it. Can you allow me to choose your life over mine. That is what a friend does. Friend or enemy is your choice. God is my judge.
Very strange post!

"So go on and claim your supposed freedom to curse me, spit on me, hurl insults at me, stab me, cut me to pieces, burn me at the stake and any other thing that makes you feel strong."

Where on earth did that come from?

I have observed that the desire to feel persecuted is apparent in certain people. Even if a threat is not really there, they will say these things to make it seem so.

Yep. Jaysus just loves persecuted Christians. Even if they have to pretend to be persecuted.
