Christians behaving badly

[firstfloor]

1. Some 'Muslims' behave badly therefore 'Islam' is bad/dumb.

2. If some 'Muslims' behave badly it must mean 'Islam' is untrue.

3. The 'Muslims' behaving badly in these snippets are somehow representative of all 'Muslims'.

I understood you shuny. These are fallacies, e.g.
1. Some Texans behave badly therefore Texas is bad/dumb.
I would only add that most folks are not so daft that they need to have this pointed out. Those that are daft enough are easily corrected by the use of “dumbass”.

Are you naïve to believe that pancreasman feels like that?

Are you too dumb to realize I was quoting YOU?

He's saying that he's completely missed the point of the thread, but, who cares, since he can still bash everyone else for not being as smart or spiritually discerning as he is.

Either that, or he's promulgating a position he doesn't actually hold, without making that clear up front, so as to 'enhance dialogue'.

That, by the way, is what "promulgating a position he doesn't actually hold, without making that clear up front" ACTUALLY looks like. *glares at lilpixieoferror

Well, it's not actually in the English. It was in my OP where I explicitly stated these points were what I did NOT intend. In your posts it was implicit. You were posting IRONICALLY. Given your consistently poor communication skills it was legitimate to ask what you really meant.

It was a goofy comment.

first floor understood the English.

And there's the proof.

As before, not a rational response. If you do not comprehend my post, then the original by pancreasman was equally not comprehensible to you because the context of the fallacy was the same in both cases.

And there's the proof.

Still not a rational response.

It was clearly in English, and first floor clearly understood my posts were in the same context as yours. I will clarify again if you continue to have difficulty,

Again, Yes, this is a list of things I was not asking, but they are questions many Christians ask of others, like Muslims and Atheists.

So what, shuny? Nobody cares if many people ask those questions. It's entirely irrelevant to the thread.

Do Christians sometimes think poorly? Why, yes, they do. Just like everybody else including you. This thread is about accepting and owning the bad behaviour of some members of our own 'sect'. The Christians here have done that admirably. How about you contribute by naming something dumb some Bahai's have done.

Ha, ha. What a shocker CP; an uncharacteristically low blow. I’m going to say a little atheish (not a spelling mistake) prayer to encourage your repentance.

Knock yourself out, FF... I need the prayer and you need the practice.

Then you are most welcome to whatever force my good wishes have.

“Atheists (and everyone one else, for that matter) should never stop "praying." That is to say everyone should have a good listener in their lives, and everyone should strive to be completely honest with themselves, to the point of bringing their emotional selves to the surface.” – Jerry DeWitt

This was not clear, and still isn't, from what you wrote in your original post.

The problem is not what Christians may NOT say or ask questions about their own faith, but what Christians (and others) say or ask questions of others like Muslims and Atheists.

I understood Pman perfectly fine, therefore, he is vindicated. After all, isn't that the standard you established?
