And not only did he say it to me it was BECAUSE people were bashing each other for what they believe over and over. I personally gave a very private exsperience that happened to me with Christianity.From non beliver to beliver so he said it in the metaphorical sense. In a way to encourage me to keep my head up even against relentless bashing. At least that was my perception.

I went from thinking this site was something like 50/50 between religious and nonreligious members when I first started to an understanding that that is not the case. I was in the minority. And knowing I am in the in the minority I put up a lot of defense mechanisms. One of the ways is to is not to get too personal about my faith, my personal life, even music I like. All that is is like being open for them to take potshots at you.
I really didn't take notice of mordwyr before this thread. If we had known each other then and he had asked me if he should start this kind of thread I would had advise him not to start it. I could probably predict and told him how every member would act, just from observing members here. Sometime I cringed what mordwyr said, because I know how this forum can be. I felt like he really didn't know what he was getting himself into, though for the most part I didn't care how they treated him. |
