Sometimes we just gotta step back...
Recently I got into a huge fight with a close friend about a religious manner.....I said something which I can't repeat on here but I instantly knew that it was contrary to everything I believed, and despite the fact that I knew I had done precisely what I'm against I couldn't stop myself.
Suffice to say, things only got worse.
The funny thing is that I use forums like this one and a few others as a medium to let out my frustrations on religion, so I won't have to with people around me in real life....but at the same time, sometimes I want to continue the discussions I have on the internet with my friends and family, and that's how things get out of control.
I've decided to stop posting (for a while) on matters dealing with politics and especially religion.
Sometimes we just gotta step back.

Sorry to hear that, I always enjoyed your commentary. Go get your mind right and come on back whenever you are ready.

Despite what you might think, I like your posting here.
That said, I know what you're talking about. Frankly, being very close with the German side of my family, I was taught early how to argue without equating opinion with personality. To this day I get into screaming matches with my mother and/or grandfather on religion or politics and they always end with "I'm hungry. Are you hungry?"
Unfortunately, very few are taught this fine art, so even when you're on that page, the people you're talking to likely aren't. Even on these very boards I see it.
I don't hate anyone here. I don't even know anyone here.

2 questions:
1 - Who would be offended by anything you say?
2 - When did you tell the truth?

Alex If you are an atheist, then why are you having a problem with religion? What about religion cant you shake? As an atheist it seem to me that you would denounce religion in any form, such as I have. I say i have no religion and do not follow any form or a religion. As well i would not get into any arguments over such beliefs.

He practices a much more aggresive form of atheism. It's calledThis isn't aChurch. It's probably the fastest growing religion on the planet right now.
