Hasty generalization. You take a few examples from your recent arguments and you use them to do a broad brush attack on theists.
Not at all. This is not a hast generalization.
Here at RHP yes, I had the chance to be in touch only with Kelly Jay, jaywill, knightmeister, ToO and epiphenehas, and only ToO seemed reasonable. My original post is not refered to them, alhtough I don't claim that I don't consider these four persons as theists incapable for a decent conversation.
In my country we have an issue with the religionist Orhodoxs. For example, some years ago 2 million Greeks were on the roads for days, behind preachers which they were walking at the first line carrying their holy flags and icons, shouting that the government should never accept the new EU IDs because "...they were stamped by the Antichrist itself" and a whole pack of similar nonsense; many recognised Greek Orthodox figures are really leaving in the past, and as a feuilletonist I wrote (and still write) from time to time about this situation, proving that their theological thesis is a pure stupidity and, in many occasions, discriminative.
Many friends of mine are good Christians, my mother too is a good Christian and I never had the slightest problem to debate decently with them. I was in touch wth priests that their flawless arguments were so inspired that they gave to me and to everybody the impression that they were full of Love and compassion, and really they were. I have no problem with the spiritualism of the individual but with the religionism, regardless the religion and the denomination. My original post has to do with the religionists, which they surely are incapable to debate decently. If some of them are active here at RHP, well this is a coincidence.
My arguments are always rational. Prove me that I am wrong and I will immediately accept your thesis, grateful because you gave me your sweet time and the chance to learn from you. But talking to a religionist is like talking to a stone. You in person, you estimate that you can or that you cannot have "a decent convesation" with me?
