ok you christians what's up with the blatant hypocrisy

so Makedde closed a thread down where she asked a question in a thread titled...

In A Library, Where Should The Bible Be Located? ...

a harmless question that could trigger a good debate...but then christians types start yammering it's flaming and Makedde is only getting away with posting it because she is a site mod...

but then there is another thread by Ostop Bender titled -What does Bible say about Atheism? he leads in with his first paragraph...

Atheists and their foolish teaching have destroyed our societies, families, forced abortions, sodomy, today even bestiality and other "atheist" values.
In my opinion only fools can believe a idea without any proofs. I'm talking about Evolution and all Atheist Doctrines. Also, folk, are atheists fools, do you agree with?

really people? where is your christian morality, you whine about a thread that asks where in a library to place a bible and yet not raise any objection to another god loving christian accusing atheists of practicing bestiality!
where was your morality? where is the your outrage? where are your objections, where are the complaints of flame baiting...

wow, is it any wonder atheists hold christians and christianity in such low regard when you treat others with such contempt because they don't share your beliefs...and this from the religion of peace brotherhood and love....

explain your lack of morality, explain your hypocrisy

 

Did you report it? If not, what do you expect the mods to do? How about you try that little report function BEFORE you scream bloody murder?

Apologies brother, but I have avoided Ostep for over a year on this forum, he plays in the gray area far too often and sometime when someone is pulling you trying to pull you into the mud puddle its best just walk on by.

 

Well most of the atheists I saw in that thread are pretty much laughing it up. They don't appear to be very offended at all in fact. But that just goes to show you which side is way more uptight than the other...especially when one side throws a hissy fit over where the Bible should go in a library and nothing offensive was said in the OP, unless you take "I think it should go in fiction" as a seriously offensive statement. lol

Neutral is right though. Just report it and the mods'll probably get around to it. In fact Mak is usually online about this time of night, well I think it's daytime for her since she's in Australia. So you could always let her know.

 

it doesn't need to be reported mods can intercede at any time....

3 pages of responses and not one christian stepped up to object...and now that your aware of it you'll do what?...if you know what bender is like why do you let him repeat his behaviour unchallenged?

 

that's the way most of us are, very reluctant to stifle any debate even if we're attacked...the library thread was very inoffensive...

 

So, you THINK the mods should read thousands of reports a day, in order to save you the AGONY of having to move your cusor up to the corner of a screen and hit the report function? Let them know there is one among thousands that is a problem?

I noticed you missed this one too:

http://www.politicalforum.com/religion/222202-so-where-should-we-put-bible-library.html

Of course, it takes a bit longer to write out a reasonable response than it does to scream bloody murder though.

And the last question: I am too busy documenting the behavior of your borthers who like to call us all a bunch of rapists. Those I do report. And yes, I bump heads with Ostap, issue corrections, and indeed did last night. You missed that too.

 

Well that's another thing. They have no doctrine for anyone to stamp on or insult. Atheists don't have a system of traditional beliefs either that they deeply cling or adhere too, so what's to offend really? xD

 

I didn't see anything offensive in the library thread.

Simply people saying the Bible was a work of fiction. Which it is. Most Christians know and understand this. It is not an offence to the faith. Any "Christian" who is offended by someone describing the Bible as a work of fiction is seriously stupid. And we saw a few of those in that thread. They crack me up!

 

Yes they do. It involves sodomy and bestiality.

So Ostap says anyway.....

Hmmm ... you didn't report THAT one?

http://www.politicalforum.com/religion/220947-third-child-shall-walk-world-blind.html

Agh, a thread in which the OP is a blatant bait. Did YOU report that one?

http://www.politicalforum.com/religion/220279-hell-invention-chruch.html

Hmmm ... we invented hell just to taunt you guys, eh? Did YOU report that one?

http://www.politicalforum.com/religion/219455-nigeria-imposes-state-enforced-religion.html

Agh yes, Nigerian law in an article that lists SHARIA, is actually a vast conspiracy of Christians ... in Nigeria? Did YOU report that one?

How many anti-Muslim rags are on this fourm that YOU have reported?

http://www.politicalforum.com/polit...radical-imams-does-matter-whether-80-1-a.html

That just fine?

http://www.politicalforum.com/polit...why-so-much-religious-right-so-backwards.html

Why are you all idiots? Did YOU report that one?

And the list goes on and on and on.

There are PLENTY of uncivil atheists on this forum. Atheists that have chased me across this fourm, called me a rapist, a murder, a pedophile, and, routinely, a delusional moron.

Guess how many atheists have ever stepped in and confronted it? Exactly one.

Guess how many atheists even BOTHER to respond when I point it out and ask why all the silence from atheists? Ask pointedly if those comments pass for debate? Zero.

Mak I know and will defend.

You? You speak of hypcocrisy like you are the victim. Borther, you are just as guilty.

If you want civility, try showing some.

Seriously brother, you are running around launching flame bait like that? And you think the problem is that you aren't being treated fairly? Want to call OTHERS hypocrites.

Yeah, we are all a bunch of oppressive murderers, BUT NO ONE BETTER CALL YOU A SODOMIZER?

Are you part of the problem, or part of the solution? What are YOU doing about it?

 

I was the first to note Mak's flamebate, and I reporter her. Because of how I know Ostap to be, I don't even bother with his threads--the fact he's still allowed to post flame is really the responsibility of the poor moderation as I am certain he has been brought to their attention several times.

The difference here is that Mak is a mod. --and you are insane if you think that thread of hers was not flame.

I believe THIS thread of yours is also against TOS:

So...not to be hypocritical...I reported you.

 

Is flame bait just a 1-way street?? Are Mods excluded from such a dastardly charge? Oh, forgot, militant atheists can dish it out but cant take it...never mind. I forgot that the word invented by atheists but infact describes them, 'hypocrisy,' offends their self-PC rules.

 

wowzer... what perverse contortions did you need to put yourself through to come up with that twisted logic....I never criticized a moderators decision but you just did here, as did a number of posters in Makedde's thread...

I believe calling me insane is also a violation of forum rules...

 

"It says discussion of moderator or mod actions of any kind..."

It's clear you have a reading issue and that must relate to your outrage here.

 

In effect, that language gives the moderators total exemption from the established rules. Regardless of what they post, we cannot even make a complaint against said moderator or discuss that posting action of the moderator even within the specified thread. In this forum, the moderators are the 'mini-gods' that are above reproach.

 

I never stifle debate no matter how offensive... I rarely visit this part of the forum I visit a thread that poses an interesting question and find people protesting over nothing there was no attack on their beliefs, these are people come to the religious section often they can see what bender posts and turn their back on it because it's ok he's only attacking atheists..

"scream bloody murder"? exaggerate much, I asked a question nothing more...

hmmm...I recall a bible story from my youth about the good samaritan, where all the "better" people walked by and did nothing as well...but not being a christian I probably got the point of that all wrong...

 

that's amusing...

interesting you try to deflect questions of your ethical behaviour to someone else...

 

So, you didn't rept it.

And you did not just ask a question, you made an accussation that within minutes appears to be false.

Worse, you exposed yoru own hypocrisy. YOU are making the exact same kinds of comments, but are demanding the mods come in remove the SAME type of comments that come flying back. YOU are not reporting ANY of insults or flame bait that the atheists on this forum hurl.

And yet you want no one to treat you as a hypocrite?

Do you see why a little patience probably would have been a better thing for you?

Most people would expect someone to acknowlegde that point. I somehow doubt that you will.

BTW - when you jump in and start dumping insults and accussations, guess what you do to debate? You stifle it. YOU see it differently - just like you see that insults and accusations of yourself and atheists differently than you do ANYTHING form a Christian. Hypocrisy indeed.

 

And that would be flame bait as well. Where is YOUR ethical behavior found in such cheap pot shots? You understand, YOU are part of the problem when YOU make comments like that?

You are now in full excuse mode kiddo, you should just stop. Your question was answered, and teh only hypocrisy that is being exposed at this point is yours.

 

I find blatant stupidity to be amusing, I was far from being offended. lol

 

Why do persons who proclaim the nonexistence of God, feel compelled to create controversy in a forum dedicated to religion?

Just curious.

 

Because it is a vast conspiracy. We actually believe in god. lol

 

Makedde's poll is not what caused all the angry retorts. It was her first post after the poll in which she snarkily asked if Christians would be upset if The Bible was included with other works of fiction. It was that post which was little more than flamebait and which caused the posts referring to it.

While I do not agree with what Ostap posted, you should notice that he did add the part about it being 'his opinion'.

 

lol

Thanks for the reply.

You know, I have sometimes wondered if some who profess to not believe, actually do. Or at least haven't completely ruled out the possibility.

Oh well, I was really just kinda thinking out loud anyway.

Take care.

 

So apparently, just answering, "Yes," is difficult?

And what happens if you are walking through New Dehli and see the Bible on a shelf with Harry Potter?

Are you going to accost the shop owner and demand that he fix it immediately? Don't you guys complain when the 'Muslim Extremists' demand respect for the Koran?

Agh, but we Christians should avoid answering the simple questions - demand that people resign even, because they do show US the proper amount of respect?

There are plenty of atheist trolls out there, and your ar beating up on Mak over an honest question?
