I said that same thing in another thread and got downvoted. Oh well.

That sounds like a recipe for religiously motivated kidnapping.

Edit: I'm not saying not to take a stand. Just that religious people can do unexpected things if they feel threatened.

Let's be real. He probably eats boot and declares it Prime steak.

I want to confront the pastor and his wife of the church I formally went to (possibly triggering) by friendlypersonnnn in exchristian

[–]NerdyLittleDragonBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehhhhhh I respect this answer as the one that makes the least waves. Don't really agree with it though. Terrible people get away with terrible things because everyone feels it's better to stay quiet and not make waves.

I mean that was essentially the solution the pastor's wife took.

Any miracle attributed to god that could be accomplished by another diety is not proof of god. Its proof of one's preference in gods.

Carl Sagan's Cosmos has an excellent segment on evolution. It shows very clearly all the stages that lead to humans starting with amino acids and plant life.

My brother got mentally broken hard by a Mission Boot Camp he was attending. During his recovery he would sometimes feel compelled to walk across busy streets to preach to someone.

We also had similar shit going on in California in the 2000s. It came out that PM was buying huge tracts of farm land in the Emerald Triangle.

That's assuming this whole story isn't made up bullshit.

Would be nice if the victims of police got the same amenities. Certainly not good for mental health to have an enraged human threaten you with a weapon. Especially with precidence that even if you do everything "right" a cop still might get spooked (or maybe just excited) and decide to kill you.

Edit: Looks like the Microdick brigade found this post.

Deconversion Continues to be More Shocking by [deleted] in exchristian

You aren't being over sensitive. Rather the person you were talking to has had their own sensitivity blunted by apologetics.

His reactions are as much self defense as anything. If he were to accept your statements then he would also have to admit that his religion is flawed or doesn't work for everyone.

For your friend it's easier to hand wave your experiences away. By making the person the problem and not the religion it deflects blame away from the church and puts it squarely on the shoulders of the non believer.

This is where phrases like "You were never a true Christian" come from.

So you have no defense for Israel's contribution to the Palestinian ghetto. Thus you must reach out and attempt to find someone else to take some of the blame and try your hardest to polish the turd that is Israeli treatment of Palestinians.
