trolling is like smelling your farts in public and hoping everyone enjoys em as much as you do
If Christianity is meaningless there should be no meaning there is literally nothing to react to.
This thread is purely voluntary so to enter and then negatively react to it is an exercise in self deprecation and the deprecation of others.
Thoughts and perceptions do not make one an extremist, actions do.
What you should do is lose the notion that you understand the value people get from something that does not make sense to you because that is the source of your frustration.
It would be no different for me to go into hydro threads and admonish people for their methodology.
tl:dr Why don't you show us on the chart where jesus hurt your feelings so bad you insist on being asshole to those who believe in him?
and for the record I am a humanist who understand the diversity of belief is a product of p=g+e
I don't judge phenotype I just smoke em
so respect my beliefs and freedom of expression and move along with your judgment.
Well yeah, this is the Speakers Corner and pipeline did ask us to Please Contribute, so in hindsite if he wanted to limit who gets to participate maybe it would have been better to set up a User Created Social Group maybe?
Surprised you left went for the straw man AND omitted the fellowship part of the thread.
To what purpose other then devil's advocate?
What is the matter an atheist thread basing other beliefs isn't attractive enough?
What kind of internal malignancy drives that kind of mindless behavior? Either Jesus is real and he is driving your hand by proxy or he is not and it is all on YOU. Pick your choice ether way the only one being malignant is the antagonist not the object of their ire.
amazing how potent just the notion of God is that it evokes such vitriol which is EXACTLY as prophesied
now if only if people didn't react to the word of god as it was written
A thread inviting those of like minds to share in said likeness isn't peddling and if it was proselytizing it would have to occur outside this thread
But I do agree your emotional attainment to trolling this thread is completely illogical and based on logic if it wasn't as prophesied you simply wouldn't be here because there would be no meaning of value to attract you be it negative or positive

I don't take the OPs inventory, why would I.
What does any of that have to do with the thread title.
If this thread was a sincere call to atheism and a bunch of Christians where to come in and try to marginalize them I would be calling them out as swiftly
it is counter intuitive to humanitarian compassion to marginalizing a whole segment of society on a stereotype including belief
it is ok to care about the soil we all need to live but not the hearts and minds of those we share it with?
I didn't see the thread as a call to challenge christian fellowship but rather sounds like OP just wants to connect with some like minded folks, hows that hurting anyone?
So much literalness.
Corinthians 3:6 says something about that for a reason. The letter - taken literal kills.
It's a book of spirit, mysticism, and more, for your spirit...
So much drama about a book, when no one does what it says anyways.
Psalm 78 King James Version (KJV)
78 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:
3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
No one's talking of that stuff. Only the stuff that allows for the bashing of one another.
Romans 3:10*King James Version (KJV)
10*As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one
Everyone is the same. Everyone is here operating in the carnal mind yet somehow throwing stones at one another when they don't even know what they read because it's read literal, and if it was read for the spirit and mysticism it is, there would be no discussion about any such people but the focus on the Word and the lessons.
Take no thought.
Let thy eye be single and your body will be filled with light... - Jesus
Yet somehow no one connects the Cyclopes (single eye) who creates the lightning bolt, which allowed Zeus to defeat Cronus the eater of of Gods, a Titan and his Father.
And then you wont connect Cronus with the Grim reaper, or Cronus Father Time, who governs the Crow, which is a phonetic anagram for Worc / Work - your time away to the Grim Reaper aka Cronus...
Who Zeus defeated with the Light of the Single Eye.
So keep it up with the literalness i guess, but hopefully someone will do legitimate reading and research.
Pretty much..that.
