    because you identify as a Christian and I no longer do, that you’re in some sort of position of authority over it

    No, no, no… I’ve been trying like crazy to explain that “what I identify with” is completely irrelevant!

    What I am arguing here:

    • You don’t have to identify yourself as a Christian to adopt some of its core values and apply them to your own life.
    • I don’t think you have to accept it wholesale if some parts of its core values bring meaning to your life
    • (Self-proclaimed) “Christians” who go around judging others based on how much better they are “at following the rules” are completely missing the point.

      What I’ve been telling you is that you’re wrong.

      Name one “Christian value” which you can and should take from Christianity. And that is specific to it. Not like “Christianity teaches us that you shouldn’t kill everyone you see on sight” like the golden rule I mentioned earlier.

      No.

      A Christian value.

      Go ahead.

      I’ll wait.

      No, you just keep defending this bullshit and then you wonder why we have to go through wars and shit.

      Stand up and call monotheism the cancer it is. There’s nothing inherently good in it. Nothing. But there is a lot of inherently bad things, like dogma, and straight up anti-LGBT values.

          Deflecting again? Wow. So surprised. You can’t answer anything or define anything.

          Yet you imagine you’re in a “debate”? Thanks for the laughs.

            No, I never said I was in a debate. Did I?

            If you don’t mind me asking: how old are you?

              argumentum

              You use words you don’t understand? (That’s a rhetorical question, I can see you do.)

              “Dogma”, “sacrament”? It’s all Greek to me…
