RedStar Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I only found this site the other day and have been reading heaps of stuff on here, I'm glad that such a site is in existance. I was reading the threads on here and thought it would be interesting to post debates we've had. Here's one of mine from the other day; (My comments are next to the red colour) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStar Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 They always have some kind of excuse don't they? Reading the stupid things they come up with is pretty funny though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator florduh Posted May 14, 2012 Super Moderator Share Posted May 14, 2012 I thought it said, "Share Your Diabetes With Christians" and thought, why not? Sorry. Carry on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConureDelSol Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I thought it said, "Share Your Diabetes With Christians" and thought, why not? Sorry. Carry on. Alas, I don't have any diabetes to share... I don't have any debates either. I try to avoid them since I am really awful at it. I tend to forget my points, where I got them from, plus I just haven't read the whole Bible cover to cover (I get ill trying to get through a single chapter). That usually makes my opinion moot to any Christian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblueep Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Here's a brief debate I had the other day with an mean fundie grandma who was insulting her atheist grandson (I put this in the "Things Fundies Say On Facebook" thread too, but it seems more contextual in this thread): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbauer Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Isn't it funny how disagreements become a personal attack? Suddenly, because their woo woo doesn't work on you, you're the one with an attitude problem. The way they run away in a huff is like a five year old angry because his or her parents won't get them another ice cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wester Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 For many years my debates went like this: A Christian somehow knows the will of God or what God wants and then says "You have to do X because God wants you to do it. Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do" When I refuse, said Christian begins the drama: "Do you want to burn in hell? How can you do that? Don't you love God? By not doing that you'll end up separated from me for eternity. How could you do that to me?" Attempted power grabs using Anthropocentric Heresy and Emotional Blackmail - standard fodder.

expat674 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Why do Christians always defend themselves with the line " I am sorry that someone hurt you?" Is that all the empathy they can muster? If that fails, then out come all the "burn ye in hell" comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the people I've shown this debate to so far think this guy couldn't come up with a good counter argument so he ran away. Nobody challenged me on it again after that... I wonder why? Hahaha.

RedStar Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 This discussion was originally about something entirely different, but then two believers started debating over Jehovah's Witnesses and what a 'true' believer is. They then started debating with each other about what the other person believed about the gospel and whether or not the other person had it right. I commented at this point: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
