Sometimes old conversations come back to life.
This is A LOOOOONG convoluted conversation that spanned several blogs.
If you want to slog into the background, you can do it here and here.
Here’s an example of a popular debate tactic that I like to call: “Whining like a baby”.

***UPDATED: Scottie is STILL whining about how poorly I treat him.
And his hurt feelings are STILL not a compelling argument.

What a crazy thing to behold. I’m really starting to think anti-theism is actually a pathological behavior. Case in point: so far there are 225 comments on that post and NONE of them responded directly to the points actually made in the post! Besides the “hurt feelings” there was just the usual anti-Christian vitriol and blather by the angry ex’s. This has been the M.O. in most of their comments on my posts. Then, they accuse me of changing the subject or not answering their questions when I would like them to stay on subject! LOL! Seriously, if I were friends in the real world with some of these people I would recommend therapy.
Yep.
It’s a powerful thing to step back and let the heathen speak for themselves. They do a great job of telling the world about the uselessness of atheism.
I now have a pathological fear of the word “hugs”. Ew. It’s like watching Joe Biden touching other people’s daughters. Give me the jibblies. Yeeeeeh.
I think what truthfully they’re ticked off about isn’t your logic or theology… but that you can write a cogent thought in one or two sentences. It takes them a paragraph to call you a poop-head and claim a moral victory.

“Don’t accept hurt feelings as valid arguments.”
Ah, great words of wisdom there. That is true of so many things in life. If you want to be really kind and loving, let people have their feelings, just don’t alter the truth to accommodate them.
Mel is always astoundingly gracious and patient. If they’re that poor of a judge of someone’s words, than they’re probably wrong about God, too. Just stating the obvious here.
Glad the blog is up and working. I’m behind in a podcast.
