Shari'ah and Afghanistan

Ergo, those religions believe that having a penis means man, while having a vagina means woman. A not negotiable one to one relationship.

You tag yourself as Christian. So, you must agree with that, right?

Stop trolling. I don't attend a Catholic or an Orthodox church. I'm not beholden to their particular technical rules. I don't appreciate you trying to bully me over this. You just have nothing to say and are bashing people.

You are losing your cool, for some reason. And I am not trolling. I am just asking for a binary answer from you, something that I would always give if challenged (although dunno is also an acceptable answer).

So, as a Christian, do you agree with the view that your sex is determined uniquely by your physical attributes?

You lose. Why is it always so easy? :)

It's because you clearly were not looking for any actual answers that we left. You will never be satisfied by anything anyone says to you unless they just throw their hands up and say 'Christianity is evil, you're right!' We're not going to say that. We have answered all of your questions honestly and to the best of our ability. The truth is that this wasn't good enough for you as far as we can tell, because you just keep hammering away at your liberal talking points. There was never going to be an 'Oh, okay, thanks for explaining that to me.' We don't care anymore.

What answers? You give no answers. When I ask if you agree with the official views of Christianity on some sensible topics, you and your partners just chicken out. Something I would never do, when my position is challenged.

What does that tell you about the metaphysical position you hold? I tell you what. It is based on nothing. It collapses after the very first basic challenge attempt. Like the Afghan official army.

I'm not a Christian, so why on Earth would you expect me to accept Christian doctrine?

You seem to defend it. Why do you defend the indefensible? What are you then?

I've already answered what my faith is in this thread.

I was trying to explain why Christianity isn't as evil as everyone thinks. That's all. The fact that you call it 'indefensible' speaks volumes about why trying to explain a more nuanced view to you is useless.

Frank answered your questions directly and honestly. I'm not sure what your problem is.

Well, that is a long thread. What is it? Are you a Muslim? Kemetic Monotheism does not say much, whatever than means.

Well, if Christianity insists in worrying about fertilised eggs, and not the virginity of little kids, or insists that condoms are a no go, even in countries ravaged by AIDS, discriminate gays and women and are against any form of euthanasia, then how can you defend them?

Frank left because he ran out of arguments. As it was easy too expect. All Christians do that after a while.

We weren't arguing or debating anything. You kept asking me irrelevant questions and I didn't sign up for an interrogation. I only responded to you in the first place to explain something.

Ancient Egyptian religion.

Christianity cares about moral issues such as these, go figure.

And yes, they need to do something about the paedophilia problem, but so does the UK government and many other institutions.

Yes. They seem to consider the raping of little kids morally acceptable. And even to be promoted, by moving kid rapists to different places with fresh kids available. Go figure.

What? Are you telling me that Christianity is no worse than secular organisations for what concerns bonking kids?

I just said that the RCC needs to deal with its paedophilia problem.

What? Are you telling me that metaphysical Christianity is no worse than secular organisations for what concerns bonking kids?
Yes. When you employ humans they will do things humans do. Literally no-one has ever denied this.

Well, I do not believe it is irrelevant. I think it is very relevant. Anyway, irrelevant questions can also be answered. So, the fact that you refuse to answer it hints to a much much deeper issue, right?

So, again. Do you agree, as a Christian, that your sex is uniquely determined by your physical attributes?

And why do you think it needs to do that? It never needed to do it for the past 20 centuries.

Yes. When you employ humans they will do things humans do. Literally no-one has ever denied this.
OK. Which undermines your claims that Christianity has not been deleterious for Europe. For humans also tend to burn people alive when their power is undermined.

It's not an all or nothing. I didn't say Christianity never caused any harm ever. Who is arguing that? You've just strawmanned me, which I'd rather you not do.

The question is what good did Christianity bring to Europe. I cannot think of anything.

Well I'm not liberal and I'm not satisfied either by your biased replies. They lack consistency with the Bible.

You told me you're not a Christian. Are you a closet Christian?

It's weird when people defend the Bible and Christianity by cherry picking, making excuses and denying literal meaning of texts as if it was the most important thing that everyone knows Christianity is good - and then they're nearly offended that someone thinks they're a Christian.

What's your agenda?
