Speak for yourself there. I have met quite a few people, Christians and non-Christian (although more Christians than non-Christians, but that is playing the odds partly), who do hate gays. I'm not saying all Christian do or don't. Just that there are Christians out there who will use the bible...

Disagreeing with homosexuality and being a homophobe/hating gays are two completely different things. o_o And just because you find it hard to be best friends with atheists, doesn't mean you are a horrible person. I'm an atheist, and I find it hard to be best friends with devout theists. It's...

Actually, that would make them an agnostic atheist. No one is just an agnostic. You are either agnostic atheist or agnostic theist. I have met both. Disbelieving in something and saying it doesn't exist are two different things and makes the difference of whether you are an agnostic or not...

bigllama, didn't look like a joke. What part of the country are you two from? I'm from the bible belt, so I guess I assume most people are Christan or those who aren't in America were at one point. I guess if you lived in a place like New York or in the UK it would be different. Well, are...

You can not believe in a God while also not claiming any knowledge on whether or not they exist. The two aren't contradictory. In fact, most agnostics I know do exactly that, but they won't admit it. And an atheist doesn't claim there is no God. Some do, but all that is required to be an atheist...

Excuse me, but you're the one who is ignorant on this point. Those people are a minority. I've never met anyone 'putting down' Christianity who wasn't a Christian at some point or at least read the Bible, which rules out the ignorant part. Yes, there are some people out there like that, but...

I know a lot of (weak) atheists and a lot of agnostics, and besides what they call themselves, there really isn't much of a difference between many of them. Of course, everyone will have different beliefs and views on a few things, but for the most part, almost all the agnostics and (weak)...

Not very long. I know a guy who had dreads that started out being above chin-length.

I see where you got your answer, but I completely disagree. Neither of us is going to change our minds. Also, I haven't really shown any emotions. I'm sorry that is how you perceive my writing style.

At the posts directed towards me, I've been really busy and probably won't have the time to answer until later this weekend. Sorry for the wait. @ ivdavid I don't know where you're getting that I'm emotional or impatient with you. I'm not. I'm sorry if that is how you perceive my style of...

So you're saying the Golden Rule is a universal absolute? The Golden Rule is also relative. I think most people don't want to be a slave, but when it comes to smaller things, people can defer greatly. Like some people like receiving compliments, I'd rather take criticism. You've got it...

It's not personal preference. I don't personally choose how I perceive reality. That is how my mind works. I can alter what conclusions I come to though be learning more about logic and such, and I can alter my view by discussing with others who perceive things differently and add light to...

"I've observed if you say "said" enough in a in a post here, you appear more credible." I was replying to that with regards to the length of posts. Perhaps you can clear up what you meant if I misinterpreted? I'd like to make it clear that I have no intention of speaking for anyone but myself...
