Far Enough

Wait a second. Someone can go ON AND ON AND ON about accusing someone of being a Nazi or a Baby Killer, etc. etc. etc. and it takes a while to be locked. I bring up a good argument for how ridiculous things are getting on this section of the board and immediately you want it locked?

People need to understand that not everyone is the same and have the same ideas… but there needs to be some kind of respect. Yes, there can be a debate and information set forth but to accuse and assume things about people are out of line.

Watch. Next someone is going to say that the post --TOP 9 Apologetic Mistakes-- needs to be locked as well because it was started by Jester or it's showing a different opinion then the most common opinions found on this board.

As much as people might say that they are opened minded, they tend not to be. At least, that it what I've seen in the past. True, Politics and Religion are touchie subjects, but if you want to be in the room and read what other people have to say --- then one needs to learn to take notes and not just going around saying people are going to hell because they think differently.

You mean the silly tantrums of the atheist guru Richard Carrier that got flattened by Dave Armstrong? Studies in Flew's Justification of His Change of Mind and the Predictable Reaction of Atheists

Out of Control? I'm trying to stand up and show people that they need to think and stop assuming and judging people without asking real questions and getting to know and understanding the other side. Arguments based on assumption are an ad hominem fallacy.

It is not just you. I don't believe the replies have been particularly wonderful at all. I CERTAINLY do not believe anything positive is coming out of this thread.

It's an internet message board. Who cares? Is it really worth all the frustration and anguish to try and prove to the world that you are "right"?

That I'm "Right"???? WTF.?. No trying to defend that my husband is NOT A NAZI, Etc. Etc. Etc. All this PERSONAL ATTACKs that are being made and accusing people of. Obviously when people are unable to stand the heat of a debate -- they start to attack the PERSON and NOT THE ARRUMENT AT HAND.
