Some'll say that if you reject Bible tales, you'll burn in Hell.
For debate:
Please offer some means to confirm the veracity of the claim.
If the claim can't be shown to be true and factual, is it uncivil, or perhaps more importantly morally right to present such an argument in order to encourage religious belief?
Why might a response of "Go to Hell" be inappropriate in the face of such a threat to one's well-being, while the threat itself may receive a pass?
Non-believers to BURN IN HELL!

I 'pologize to EduChris personally, and the forum at large. I took a term presented to me and "ran with it", while not realizing it could be so offensive.Confused wrote: Moderator Intervention
It would appear as if you are calling anyone who is Christian an "oddball", specifically EuduChris. This was reported and not only can be construed as a personal attack but also quite uncivil. A central Christian Tenet is that Jesus rose after three days. Please try to remain civil. You have already been issued a formal warning. Any further infractions will lead to a probation vote.

I drawded dat dare concluzion frum yer yusergrupe enfo.Please link to and quote verbatim where I've made such an assertion within this thread. Otherwise I can only conclude that, like the above example, you're trying to confuse the issue.

So are you calling me a liar?
Having previously shown you can't show you speak truth regarding there being souls, how might'n we know there's heat in 'em?

Let's look at what got us here...
Y'all done fouled it all up, I'm here to tell. Belonging to a usergroup is not making a claim within a specific thread. I'm willin' to sort that out a bit better if need be. Or maybe you'd just holler at a moderator and they'd sort it out for ya.Zetesis Apistia wrote:I drawded dat dare concluzion frum yer yusergrupe enfo.JoeyKnothead wrote: Please link to and quote verbatim where I've made such an assertion within this thread.

So see, it ain't that I accuse my opponent of being a liar. It's that I accuse him of being unable to show he speaks truth. The observer though, I can't help if they go to thinkin' of it.Zetesis Apistia, in Post 54 wrote: I'm going to have to invoke that faith thingy again.

From Post 74:
Please do not make my claims for me or presume to know my stance on issues unrelated to the OP.
Now that we have all that behind us, can Zetesis Apistia show the claim presented in the OP is true?
If you seek to challenge claims I make, I merely request you link to 'em and quote verbatim the claim in question.Zetesis Apistia wrote: You sneaky rascal I would have guessed you for an atheist. Well dumb on me.

Moderator Warning
Zetesis Apistia has received several comments related to unproductive one-liners and debating civilly and substantively. The post is focusing more on the person being addressed then their arguments. It is really not appropriate to look at a member's usergroups and infer claims based on those usergroups when the member has not stated those within the thread. The sarcastic way you expressed yourself does not help.
Please avoid this kind of behavior in the future.
Please review our Rules.
