FFS! I was asked by moderation if I would agree to a RO with the Witch. And I did.
@Poly.Conduct is demonstrably variable.From reasonable all the way to " f****** s*** ".Self restraint is perhaps preferable to a restraining order.I personally think that moderators do a good job.Over-moderating would be overbearing.And feigning offence is a cowardly tactic.
MISS TRADESECRET = A COWARD IN CONTRADICTING HER TITLE OF HER THREAD HEREIN! LOL!
Relating to Miss Tradesecret being the #1 Bible stupid fool, the #1 runaway from biblical axioms, and the #1 member in coming up with a myriad of excuses not to discuss her faith, where the irony is the fact that the creator of this thread, Miss Tradesecret, in being a woman shown[.....]
......herewith: https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEB0WX8 is the pseudo-christian COWARD as specifically shown in the following examples: I challenged Miss Tradesecret and her faith to a debate upon the Trinity Doctrine that she says she knows everything about:
But, she ran away and went into hiding once again with yet more EXCUSES not to debate me upon said topic as a COWARD!
I challenged Miss Tradesecret to a debate upon the Virgin Mary birth of our serial killer Jesus in he following link, but what did she do? She RAN AWAY again in becoming the #1 COWARD within this forum.
Whats that old adage again, oh yeah, in her calling Atheists cowards, she is the “pot calling the kettle black!” As I have said countless of times, this is a religion “discussion forum,” and NOT a "runaway from discussion" forum like Miss Tradesecret does in using lame EXCUSES to run and hide from discussion as a COWARD!
Miss Tradesecret doesn't have the wherewithal to understand that she is an embarrassment to TRUE Christianity and this esteemed forum every time she enters it, and True Christians like myself and the Atheists will continue to show her ungodly ways when she has the audacity to Satanically be within this Religion Forum.
Praise Jesus for His revenge upon the pseudo-christian COWARD Miss Tradesecret herewith: "But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)
LOL. Do you really not know who that is and that they're being satirical yet insulting?
He went by Willows. He figured out a way to finally insult without getting banned. Well without getting banned as often.

I wouldn’t be 100% pessimistic about convincing people, only 90%. I’ve had people here make arguments that were logical enough to change my mind on a few topics. It shouldn’t take a deep dive into human psychology and an entire flame war to change someone’s mind. All it should require is a couple of solid arguments. So, while it is true that debating on the internet is mostly fruitless, it isn’t completely fruitless. Same thing with debating people irl honestly. It’s a product of human nature. A society with no debating at all is a society in free fall. And yes, it is possible to have a social life irl and a meaningful discussion on this site.
“I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.”― Albert EinsteinDoes that sound like a coward?
Would it make you feel better that I no longer feel attached to the label "atheist"? Since it comes with baggage on both sides and since someone else's understanding of the term (you in thiscase) cannot change my actual position I have come to refer to myself as simply someone who does not believe in any god(s)In any case I am more than happy to discuss MY views and beliefs so long as you understand that they are not necessarily representative of the larger community of those who do not believe in any god(s).
Tradesecret OP :It's been my experience that Atheists love to show up to religious threads. They get to have their say. They get to destroy their opponents. They get to prove how cool they are in the world of philosophy.But this is why I say they are cowards. Because they are afraid to reveal what they believe.[1] For instance, what do Atheists believe?[2]Nothing.[3] One common doctrine.[4] God doesn't exist. An argument based on a negative.[5] That is it.[6] Nothing else. We are not allowed to know what else they believe - because there is no common factor.Hence why Atheists are COWARDS.[7]They criticize - but without fear of being criticized. That is not criticism. That is safe ground. Bogus. really.[8]
Tradesecret OP :Are there more doctrines for the atheist than there is no God? No. nary a one. LOL! laughable. And weak.[9] Cowardly really. there is no other words that can account for this state of being.[10] A worldview - that is not really a worldview - a position - that is not really a position - a statement that allows no criticism.[11] Imagine if we tried to apply to that any religion? It would be laughed out of the stadium.[12] that is why Atheism is cowardly. One rule for them.My view is that only people with worldviews should be allowed to contribute in a religious forum.[13] An atheist ought be rejected unless they can provide a worldview to be considered. Unless this occurs - then there is no basis of comparing and contrasting. There is no basis for conversation.Unless an atheist is able to come up with a worldview - then the atheist's opinions ought not be welcome.[14]We should not be permitted to criticize others unless we have something alternative to offer. Atheists have nothing to offer - of their own admission [15] - so why ought we subject to ANY of their criticisms.[16] By admitting they have no other doctrines, they admit they use religious doctrines to live their lives.[17]
Reece101 2 to Tradesecret :What do non-smokers believe? Nothing. This is essentially what you’re arguing. Most atheists just live their lives just as religious people do.Tradesecret 44 :Thanks Reece, but you are incorrect. That is not what I am asking. There is no reason for a non-smoker to come to a religious forum as a non-smoker. Atheists do come intentionally as atheists.[18] They ask questions - fair enough - they criticize - again fair enough - but when a theist starts to question the atheist - the smoke screen comes up.[19] We don't actually believe anything.[20] Not that you can pin on me as an atheist.Hence your comparison is flawed.
Double_R 3 :It wouldn’t be so frustrating if you had enough evidence to meet the burden of proof you give yourself when you make a claim, such as “a god exists”.Tradesecret 47 :Do you mean for you or theists? I find it frustrating that atheists - choose not to give a reason. They don't think that's necessary. And for the record, theists give excellent reasons for why they believe in God all the time.[21] It is just that non-theists choose to believe that they are weak reasons. That doesn't mean that the standard is not met - it only means that the atheist doesn't understand what the correct standard is.[22] It happens in jury trials all of the time. Lawyers tend to call it bias. It's one of the reasons we like to select juries.
Reece101 50 :Can we agree atheism and even theism to a lesser degree doesn’t represent a persons whole identity?PolytheistWitch 51 to :Yet the atheist come here and tell the theists all the time that that part of their life is their business and they should get to tell them that they shouldn't practice it, they shouldn't get to believe it and they're stupid and they're evil and they're mentally retarded and they're abusing their kids.
Tradesecret 63 to SkepticalOne :This is why I find the atheist position so well cowardly. It is permitted to attack my views - which incidentally I am ok with - since it will help me understand my own views better. Yet, it never provides an alternative - except - there is no god. And that is it.[23]It fails to engage properly with its own position. So not only is it cowardly, it is stupid.[24] And self-demeaning. Yet for whatever reason thinks it is objective, rational, and elitist. and somehow morally superior. True not all atheists think that way. Yet not thinking it doesn't remove it from their lips.
Tradesecret 63But how can an idea - since it is clearly not more than that - it is self professedly not a worldview, somehow take on the persona that it can destroy entire worldviews? It logically just can't do that. An idea must fit within a context - a worldview to have such a self-important view of itself. Yet as soon as it does it, it effectively destroys itself as an idea only.

That is a matter for yourself. Not me. This was not a topic about changing people's points of view. It was a topic I started out the frustration of some on this site - and wrongly I made it general.I have never had a problem with you nor with most of the atheists on this site. Mostly, you are agreeable even when you are disagreeing with me. It doesn't normally get to personal and helps the conversation. I apologize I made this such a general post.
