    My latest idea to help with those who don't enjoy the Xtian bashing in this forum is to create a new one just for Xtians. I'm thinking of calling it Sanctuary.

    Of course the more open minded of you might just want to visit my new site, http://www.coolove.org

    It's hate free, and a sanctuary too! :)

    Nice insult there Skip.
    Then again I never did want to become so 'open minded' that my brains fall out.

    Seriously though, hopefully one day you will be open minded enough to accept Christianity like I do.
    In the mean time, I really dont care about Xtian bashers or ChristianBashers (like yourself) posting here.
    But then again Im interested in free speech.

    Really?
    Where was that and should we bring back the tortures that good ole Pagans used to 'convert' Christians with too?

    Follow up question: How does that hatred feel inside you? You know, the one you have for Christianity?
    Im sincerely asking that btw.

    Not sure what all the argument is for here.

    Yes, Skip, I'm all for a Christian-only forum with no bashers.

    Hopefully one day Xtians will be open minded enough to accept OTHER religions as being EQUALLY valid, and other human beings as being EQUAL to Christians, and NOT inferior in ANY WAY!

    Perhaps that's a result of Xtian history, treating others as inferior heathens. That attitude STILL exists today among many if not most Xtians. And it's about to start WWIII.

    spthhhraaasp ! bwahahahaha ! friggin hell, you made me spit my tea out !

    hey wadda matter den skip - is the christians feeling a bit bruised ?
    Atheists just use em for target practice before moving on to the more coherent religions where theyre garaunteed a better argument like a cat playin with a mouse - ya know sharpen up the claws a bit before trying to bring down a real religion thats got good arguments - Trouble is they got nothing to shoot back with .
    I can see why the romans threw em to the lions - there werent much in the way of intellectual entertainment coming from their corner so it was inevitable they would become the entertainment

    Well it's hard to have a decent debate with people who read ONLY one book on the subject of religion, be it the bible or Koran or whatever.

    What kind of mental stimulation can you get when you must forever forego your critical faculties, and instead rely upon faith in written words from just one book to guide your life. Especially when the book was written 2000 or more years ago. Not like they knew about things like cloning, stem-cells, nuclear war and other such modern inventions.

    Of course they had the issues of their day to contend with and did so with typical fascist aplomb. Things like masturbation, fornication, homosexuality (all things sexual) were supressed back then just like Xtians do today. Nothing has changed, they haven't evolved at all, in 2000+ years, it's the same old tired line.

    The fact that jesus was just a hippy type fella, who preached against the established (jewish) church at the time, demanding freedom of thought and belief, seems to be lost on modern Xtians. So what if Jesus fucked a prostitute (and probably had a bastard child) and some of his followers were likely gay, they condemn this behavior now in some twisted, perverted moralistic one-upmanship. It's as disgusting as it is hypocritical.

    Jesus H. Christ: Wicked Cool Anarchist!

    One Love, people, One Love!

    (not all xtians are messed up, we all know that, Leo Tolstoy, novelist, and Christian anarchist was WAY ahead of his time)

    Back to the topic though:

    I got no problem with a xtians only place.
    free association

    Sometimes you just want to chill with like-minded people without having to constantly be on the defensive. "fellowship" i think you guys call it...

    Gosh I didnt realise you were this sympathetic toward christianity !
    Have you ever thought about becoming an atheist?
    LOL LOL !
    Anyhow theres a better class of conversation going on at Atheism - anytime christians want a breath of air they could pop up there.
    yeah youre right - we should all trot back to atheism and leave christians to wonder whether god exists or not !
    I dont think they need sanctuary - they could get that here if us atheists get out of here. However I think they might do well to visit a forum called psychiatric help !

    I'm out of this debate

    Well the problem with anti-Xtians leaving, is that there then is no place for them to rail against Xtianity. This forum should be for discussing pros and cons of belief in Christ & the Xtian church.

    A sanctuary gives Xtians their own place to hang out in fellowship. It enhances the brainwashing they crave, reinforces their isolation from reality, and gives free reign for them to act like hypocrites.

    Therefore it's a perfect solution! The other solutions I considered had problems.

    Here's a valid question:


    Are any of the other religious/philosophical forums being given the opportunity to have a "sanctuary" forum for their respective beliefs?

    It fascinating to see the webmaster of a 'free speech' forum trying desperately to find a way to eliminate just the one subject he fears the most.
    Cant just outright eliminate it.. too obvious.
    Still need a place to hate it... hmmmm

    Oh I got it - make a private forum for them somewhere and then leave this one a 'Hate Christianity' forum.
    Fantastic!

    Oh Skip... what does that hatred feel like inside?
    It must be fiery hot and full of bile?
    Will YOU admit that Christianity is 'equally valid' with your belief system?
    That and more questions coming in the next episode of:

    LOL!

    I hate religion, not spirituality or deep personal growth/introspection.

    Jesus was a cool guy, with a lot of good stuff to say, i don't agree with what the majority of xtians say it all means, but i can respect them as individuals if they can respect me.

    But yeah, if you're gonna offer the option to the xtians, then you should also offer it to the other's as well, it's only fair.

    I mean, Islam get's bashed too: fuck allah

    But the muslims didn't get a poll....

    Maybe it's that the xtians are whining more?
    Maybe it's because the xtians just get bashed more?
    I dunno, but why should they get singeled out for special treatment, it's that kind of thing that causes tensions in the first place.

    Looks to me like thats what you just tried to do.
    And who is the 'violin' smiley for - you or Skip?

    *Im FOR allowing X-haters to run rampant in here. It helps them work out their deep and warring issues with Jesus and his ministry.

    I asked a legit Q, no animosity, personal attacks, or bitterness involved.

    Me too, he's not talking about clearing out non-xtians, just allow for a place of only xtians, which i don't have a prob with as long as other faiths/beliefs/philosophies get their own spaces.

    not into favoritism.

    And i don't bait Skip.
    It's his site.
    He gives me a journal, a gallery, my own forum ect, for a measely $10 i gave like 2 years ago(which reminds me skip, i'm snding something your way this month :))

    Fedup...what would you do then? You'd be lost...this is where the action is. Or me, for that matter...I'm here because we all basically agree over on the Hinduism forum. The Christians want challenge and debate as much as anyone.
