[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't visit this sub-forum very often, but as a relative outsider here, I can't help notice how many threads, and posts within topic threads, that denigrate, belittle, or troll religion.

I don't understand this. 
 
It's akin to people seeking out groups of people having conversations about sports, and constantly interjecting about the weather. I don't get it.

If the forum is devoted to conversations about various religions, then it stands to reason that that's the baseline for everyone involved. The assumption that everyone in the thread or forum is there because they are already a person of faith to begin with, and are there to discuss matters related to that. So I can't wrap my head around why there are posts on almost every thread calling religion nonsense, or denying the very existence of God.

I mean, if you feel that way, and religion isn't relevant to you, then why seek out a forum dedicated to the discussion of religion, by religious people, to pop into and argue the fundamental nature of the forum topic itself?

It's weird. I don't understand it. [/quote]

a) what goes around comes around - religious people literally knock on my door all the time to insert themselves where they are not welcome
b) I'm ticked about the centuries of oppression[/quote]

"all the time", huh? Interesting. So is that like hourly? Daily? Weekly? Once a month? How often are we talking about? Because I've lived in lots of places and can on one hand the number of times in my life someone has knocked on my door to share their faith with me.

Centuries of oppression? I didn't realize you were that old. Your style of writing makes you sound much younger. [/quote]
