<a href="http://www.christianforums.com/threads/22877.html" target="_blank">It scares away the fundies.</a>

Here is my comment that started the interaction with ladyhate.

Quote:
Actually, I don't know what the
penalty for rejecting God is. There is no agreement among Christians or other religions what that is. Considering that they can't make up their minds, why should I fear it.
Personally, I think that if a loving god exists, He will not punish me if I wait until death to see his existance.[/b][/quote]

Here is my latest comment.

Quote:
Like I said, only bad teachers insist that pupils can't learn.

You and ladylove assert that you are telling me the truth. I disagree since this "truth" conflicts with everything I know about the world. If you want to convince me that it is true you have to give me some sort of reason (evidence, logic, etc.) to change my mind, and discuss these reasons with me, listening to my reasons for not beliving you. However, no one has done this and a few people have taken the lazy route and simply claimed that I am unteachable. How do you know if you have never tried to teach me?

Rrrgh...she really exemplifies everything I hate about fundie Christianity. Closed minded, intolerant, "I know better than you do what you mean/say/think"....rrrrr.

It's a good thing I haven't been as singled out as you as a target by them. I don't know how David G. manages.

BTW, David, which do you prefer for your kneeling practice, Allah or Kali? (assuming you read this forum and will see this and will bother to read it, of course...)

I wonder how many people she has scared into converting? Unbelievable.

In my experience, when you ask the fundies the hard questions, they banish you.

Forum? BANNED!
IRC? BANNED!

Further note:

And in some cases, the fundy will say that they are being "persecuted" because you have a differing opinion, even if you are being completely friendly with them.
