Will Darfius burn out?

As we are all too painfully aware, Darfius has swept down upon us in a storm of righteous zeal. The stamina and singlemindedness he has displayed by making a deluge of pointless pious posts is truly amazing. We see it all the time on the atheist forum at about.com - starry eyed bible thumpers filled with the spirit of the lord, trying to save our poor, lost souls. They never last, though. Even those with twice the patience of Job come to realize that their preaching is both unwanted and counterproductive, so they eventually give up and go back to dreaming about burning heretics at the cross in privacy.

But Darfius has some backers here. He may find the reserve to keep flooding almost every thread with his sermons indefinitely. Or he may burn out and drift away. Who knows?

So let's place some bets, shall we? You can choose from one of the two options below:

1. Darfius will keep on preaching incessantly until we all go mad.

2. Darfius will burn out from preaching at RHP and will join a monestary. Hopefully one with a vow of silence. Additionally, if you guess the amount of time it takes Darfius to burn out, then you win a free indulgence.

I'll take that bet! Do you know what the average lifespan is nowadays? Put me down for that. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hmmm...Let's do an analysis shall we?

Darfius is an up and comer in the thumper community. He has made a stunning display in numerous posts throughout numerous threads showing he has the handspeed but does he have the stamina?

Xian warriors like RBHILL and Blindfaith101 both show they have the endurance to go on but I have seen a slowdown. Perhaps the wear and tear of logic on their midsections have exposed the glass chin we have suspected. Their trainer, JC, has often questioned their will and is thinking of throwing in their towels.

Anyway, pound for pound, I don't think Darfius can go the distance. He has already shown some weakness in confiding his posts to only certain threads, the first sign of fatigue.

Exactly. Ivanhoe, though you rarely permit me to say this, you have made a excellent point.

Rob, I love to goad Darfius as much as the next guy for so many reasons, but I will not elaborate on his many deficiencies. Perhaps if we ignore him, he'll get tired of sowing his seed on rocks. I propose that, rather than point out the myriad fallacies that populate his posts, we just let it slide and continue on with the whatever the thread topic is. His ramblings will just further convince people that he is misguided. This technique seems to work well with SVW.

.......look, I know this is a little off topic, but I feel neglected. I have been preaching here for over two years. At forum wars, royalchicken even accredits me for "opening a real can of worms" with my religious debates here. I am the father of the thumpers here, but.......

....pardon the play on words here but, "I get no disrespect!"

You get the book yet, Tel? Let me know when you do and I'll sign up at that site you wanted me to.

This is not the way a Bible thumper speaks. Remember always feign humility at every opportunity. Only admit weakness to signal how much closer a walk you have with God.

I didn't say I was a GOOD thumper, just that I was the orignal. We are sinful beings. ESPECIALLY me. ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜€

I quit wasting my time by replying to his posts a few days ago. Your suggestion sounds like a good one, but some people will undoubtedly be tempted to try to inject some reason into the discussions with him.
