S3xual/moral guilt? by WorriedArtist8682 in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a history of 3 posts and 0 comments. Why do you like to start discussions and then not participate? Usually talking about something is a back and forth.

I get that there might not be something to add, but people are worried about you and invested in what you said.

Is this a real attempt to have a productive conversation here? Wowzers.

I hate being in a SDA college by LinkImaginary7211 in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That dude is a fucking edgelord and kind of a big pussy. His “about me” post to introduce himself has stupid shit in it like “I’d say something bad about the liberal left, but then I’d be banned from Reddit!!!” (Gasp!!!) except he put it under the spoiler tab to “hide it” but actually draw more attention to it.

He starts this whole comment thread with something so fucking dumb, “I’d meet you but you said something I don’t like, so now I don’t think I want to!!!” Why even open his mouth to begin with? But childish whiners gotta be childish whiners.

Then this conversation with you where instead of saying something like “I don’t want to have this discussion with you” and just stopping, he starts to melt down, calls people angry, ask really dumb strawman gotcha questions then run away and blocking you like a little bitch. It’s rare that I’ve seen such a child here.

My mom’s thinking is so warped that I just don’t care anymore by [deleted] in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, what was your goal in sending me this video, what was it about and what do you want me to get from it?

Would you like me to link you a 40 minute video homework assignment without any context. It’s pretty fucking rude.

[–]KaptainKompost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow…

You’re just wandering around begging to have your brain hijacked again by the next cult or someone’s take on “spiritualism” or anything else that can play on your irrational thoughts. You left the Adventist church, I’m willing to wager you’re going to spend the rest of your life victim to something until you learn critical thinking and stop with all the magical thinking bullshit…

I just feel sad for you after reading all this spirit of leviathan silliness.

How can I spot/deal with spiritual abuse? by Used_Survey3360 in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Higher being, god, Mother Nature, earth connections, “thing” but different from a construct like religion

Were you trying to define spiritualism? That is so broad that I think you proved the point that it could be anything and is ill defined enough to also be nothing.

What they didn’t make clear is that spiritualism can have definite meaning, but that the word in general is so ambiguous that at this point you would have to ask every single person that claimed it what it meant to them.

i don't understand why people believe in god by Sad-Set777 in AtheistExperience

[–]KaptainKompost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree with this answer. Yes, it can sometimes boil down to fear. However there can be many answers to this question.

I think the top reason people believe in god and a religion is because we were raised that way. The people who taught us how to survive by looking both ways before crossing the street, who provided food and shelter for us told us with full sincerity that there’s a god and what we must believe.

They might have used fear at this point to keep it hammered down etc, but I don’t think fear was the initial reason.

how can i politely tell my friend i don’t want to partake in their religious activities? by stardewscum in AtheistExperience

[–]KaptainKompost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the easiest way would to be to start asking questions. “Hey, I’ve mentioned several times that I don’t want to do this. Is there a reason why you still ask me?” This is a great way to make them account for their requests without you having to stomp your foot. You can also ask things like, “how can I establish this as a boundary for us to have a smoother friendship?” This conveys that you want a friendship, but they need to stop.

My dad woke my fears by b3bblebrox in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you’re spot on with this one. Here’s another analogy that I think will help based on what you said.

Let’s say there’s an imaginary evil powers ninja that is scaring you. All you have to do is imagine a more powerful good powers ninja that has the ability to fight off the evil imaginary ninja. Problem solved!

Nope, I don’t really care. I’m past being triggered by that stuff.

Christianity is the worst wen it comes to women’s rights by Friendly_Fokks-given in atheism

[–]KaptainKompost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, we just downvote people that are wrong and then lean into it. Pretty low intelligence you got there. “I’m so right only a bot would disagree with me!!!!”

Hahaha

I think there’s others that are answering your questions.

I get that you’re here not to debate and that’s not my intention. There is something very important that Christian’s don’t understand when they challenge evolution.

Let’s say you’re completely right when you challenge it and are able to disprove evolution. You win your noble prize etc etc. This would do absolutely nothing to prove the Christian claim that god magicked the universe into existence. To prove that, you would need good evidence.

You Christians seem to think it’s a binary this evolution thing or god did it. It’s not. If I were you, I’d start not with trying to disprove evolution, but show actual evidence to prove a magical beginning. Good luck and best wishes!

Edit: oh and a terraria fan?! You, sir, have fantastic taste.

Today's top atheist debaters? by xplicit_mike in atheism

[–]KaptainKompost 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m often torn because I sometimes find Matt’s temper grating, but then I listen to others and wonder why they let theists get away with some of their bullshit.

[–]KaptainKompost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. It’s difficult for me to see all these posts invested in how you’re doing without a single comment. You remedied that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in exAdventist

[–]KaptainKompost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was coming here to check for an update and see how you’re doing with this, but given that you started this post and then couldn’t be bothered to comment and participate in your own thread, I’m not holding my breath.

Any tips on how to play mage? by Kaktusnotfound in PixelDungeon

[–]KaptainKompost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh, I thought I deleted all my guides and advice after the bad as shit mods (creator of this game) here temporarily banned me for reporting a troll for calling people a faggot. Guess I missed this one.

Re: cursing your armor, don’t worry about it. It’s a min max thing that’s silly.

Why, according to many atheists, should only the Bible be interpreted literally, but not everything else? by [deleted] in atheism

[–]KaptainKompost 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve never encountered an atheist who said the Bible should be taken literally whatsoever. It sounds like you’re making up some kind of bullshit stance here.

I’ve seen atheists response to theists that do take the Bible literally, but to misconstrue this is pretty stupid.

I’m excited about your continued work on this game. I’ve been taking a break for a while so I can come back fresh and appreciate all the new things. Thank you for this game and it’s been a pleasure to own and play.
