If you had a fraction of the intelligence of a genius you wouldn't need to resort to personal, unprovoked attacks. What's more, I think your posting fits the description of trolling (posting inflammatory or irrelevant material on an Internet forum) much more closely than mine does.

Originally posted by NoEarthlyReasonDoes your knowledge of Christian belief lead you to believe that it could be described as "Christian" logic? RJHinds openly propagates his Christian beliefs in such a way so as to make people hate him and his beliefs. I agree that it's "strange". But any "logic" it may have strikes me as being profoundly antithetical to the promotion of Christian faith.
I can sort of see the strange logic there.
Originally posted by FMFNo I wouldn't (and didn't) say it's 'Christian' logic, but there is a sort of strange, perhaps twisted, logic to what you apparently said. I don't really think RJHinds is a true Christian at all. His 'beliefs' and what appear to be his values are not what I would consider Christian.

Originally posted by NoEarthlyReasonThere used to be speculation as to whether he was a parodist ~ perhaps an atheist ~ whose mission it was to discredit Christianity but I think, for such a pretense to have been sustained for so long... well, it seems unlikely.

Originally posted by FMFPerhaps he once adhered to Christianity's moral tenets but as he grew older he became corrupted and remains in denial about it, compensating by trolling Internet forums with nonsense about the Earth only being 6,000 years old and being the centre of the universe.

Originally posted by NoEarthlyReasonRJHinds peddles a "personal reality" that is sustained by strict subscription to anything which offers him "confirmation bias" ...and, of course, this is served up by the lorry road by the internet and is given added wind-in-the-sails and circular logic 'validation' by the very existence of the withering ridicule that he attracts and deserves.

Originally posted by FMFFor his sake I hope your study of him isn't quite as bleak as the reality.
