I've seen a lot of threads in the Religion/Spiritually section with titles saying things such as, " Only for Christians. No atheists!", Or "Atheist only. No Christians, or theists". I just don't understand. Why are we banning each other from our discussions? First of all, telling a person not to do something that is as silly as that is offensive in itself. Secondly, it's like sending out an invitation for atheists or Christians, or agnostics (or whoever you don't want in the discussion) to come right in with their opinions, or flames or whatever. Why can't we be sensible? Arguing in a way that is intelligent is a good thing, especially in dealing with things like religion because it helps to pin the holes in a faulty argument. Are people too sensitive to allow others to point out things like that to them? What's the point of discussion, if you're only going to agree with other people that think exactly the same way as you, and convince yourself that your belief is the only right one? I thought, that discussions were supposed to allow people to open their minds, and let thoughts in that they may never have considered. So, what's the deal here, people? Can someone enlighten me? Forgive me for posting this in the extended discussion section, but I really think that this is Extended material. If it needs to be moved, be my guest, guys.
