Because the "universe doesn't revolve around" FMF. It revolves around KJ. The sooner everyone comes to grips with that, the better.

I know. It revolves around KJ.
It's high time you came to grips with that fact.
But this message board DOES revolve around people engaging in discussions and responding to questions about their beliefs.
Including questions about your past beliefs?

Yep. and then they put "challenge " in the thread title.

Originally posted by @thinkofoneI have, of course, spoken about my past beliefs here in some detail before over the years ~ I've even started threads about it ~ but I see such questions now as being a red herring and deflection.

I am not interested in some sort of ideological pissing contest about "true" Christianity and the doctrine and dogma attendant thereto.
robbie carrobie 'deduced' that I was never a Christian ~ because I hadn't been a Jehovah's Witness ~ and declared me a liar.
lemon lime heard that I was a Catholic and so felt that I was never a Christian and declared I was a liar.
josephw did something similar
I talked to RJHinds about why I wasn't a Young Earth Creationist when I was a Christian and he declared that I was therefore never a Christian and therefore a liar.
I described the process of losing my faith in some theological detail and it was deduced by some that I was never a Christian and therefore a liar.
Doctrinal pissing contests.
KellyJay has gone for the same thing. He's said both that I DO have to prove to him I used to be a Christian - otherwise I am a liar - and that I DON'T have to prove to him I used to be a Christian.
As a non-Christian poster, it's a dull and pointless cul-de-sac. I'm simply not interested.
I do not attempt to disguise my take on Christianity and my take on the incoherent and self-contradicting things that Christians say about reality; I am open and frank about it.
