First of all, "fuck". There, now you can claim to ignore all of this because of foul language.
But if you actually do keep reading and don't get all high and mighty and convince yourself that you're right without ever listening to an opposition, consider this:
Nobody is listening to you. The people who do read what you say, usually point out the obvious flaws in your logic immediately afterwards.
You claim righteousness, but your words won't be respected, let alone heeded, if you ignore any opposition. That is literally the definition of narrow mindedness. You're giving what you fight for a bad name.
So I ask you, in a final attempt at any form of civilized communication, either leave or defend yourself. You remind me of a saying I used to hear;
"Arguing with theists is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are at chess, the pigeon will just crap on the board, knock over the pieces, and then strut around like it won."
That is the impression you're giving people. It's not a commendable one. I'm done playing your game, but there are plenty of other people who see through your ignorance and are tired of you ignoring everyone and spamming up our forums. And that's all your words are; spam.
Take the responsibility to prove yourself in open debate, or leave our forums. You aren't wanted here. -
I feel like he has insulted christians :/
-
As a past Christian I'm insulted.
-
I used to be a Christian, and a year ago, I would have been insulted. Now, I can fully understand the logic in what bob wrote, and I totally agree.
-
I just feel like he's making all Christians seem stupid. I know a lot of Christians who are extremely intelligent, and he's giving them all an extremely bad name.
-
eh, the whole statement seems like pseudo intelligence. no offense, it's just my impression.
a cliched atheist like you, are the ones who argue with pigeons to begin with. not that i object to cliched athiest, i just find them very comparable to cliched theists.
in fact the game's more like a pigeon playing against a turkey- that is; continual back and forth of the same tiring topic, and you never really goes anywhere. it's a child's conversation in the schoolyard, while adults cure cancer, and master the search for self.
the underlying problem is simply that people start thinking they're smart enough to crack so many secrets of the universe that there can be no other system, no other explanation, no other rationale, no other way.
the atheist playing chess with a pigeon believes the pigeon should be smarter, the pigeon believes the atheist should waste less time.
pigeons have no need for chess anymore then a man has need of wings, and the most rewarding relationship you can have with a bird is through chicken dinner. let things be what they are, and the world will turn round smoother -
lol 'goes anywhere'
obviously i meant 'go anywhere' -
'master the search for self'
You don't find yourself, you create yourself, genius.
When Bob debates with someone, he has expectations. So you can't blame him for 'arguing' in the first place. He expected Ego to at least have the decency to reply, but later realized it wasn't even worth it anymore. So before you try to think you know him so well, I suggest you get your facts straight, darlin'. -
it doesn't sound like your talking philosophy.
don't mistake me chica, i never said i knew him, i've just known an awful lot of people who talk like him.
and i've known people who talk like you too. you sound like your just white knighting cause you think your buddy got dissed, but if i'm wrong prove it by sticking with the topic little girl, and talk philosophy. -
I can defend whoever I please when I see it. So what if I'm 'white knighting? You're sitting there trying to figure him out, thinking you know him just because of other people. I don't study philosophy, but I do know that I see people complain about atheists putting Christians into one group, yet you said 'I've seen people who talk like him', does that make him the same? No. And don't call me a little girl, because I'm sure I'm the same age as you if not older.
-
naw there's nothing wrong with white knighting, and i'd be the last guy to stop you, it's just more of the same school-boy heroics that i'd expect from someone who doesn't study philosophy but argues in a philosophy forum.
people are usually more interesting then their religious position, this being because in real life, morals rarely line up with emotion.
i only bring it up because you seem fixated on the idea that i'm out to understand folks, but not at all, i just want to debate here. -
It is in human nature to argue and fight amongst one another for seemingly pointless reasons when the only thing we gain is a sense of dominance over another human being. We know nothing above our nature, so we just do what we do.

well said

Total Ponage NewbieHalf the people here who commented are idiots.
Just kidding. Point out my flaws so I can own you. -
Speaking of ego...
TP, you couldn't own any of us if you tried. If you're gonna walk around acting like you have a big d---, you're gonna have to prove it first.
