1. I'm not offended or Christian. You just percieved that I am. You decided these for yourself.

Honestly, I didn't know you were Christian and in my posts depicted you as a neutral compromiser. However there is one sentence that can seem like I called you a Christian, but overall at least I never defined your faith.

2. People are interpretting this the wrong way because you've given them no reason to to interpret it in any other way.

Exactly, thing is my first post wasn't my words, so how can I interpret it for them. The only thing that I can interpret for the narrowminded pessimists is that the title is not a generalization, something I've already done.

4. Percieving that you are generalizing is entirely more plausible because what you have been saying has shown more of an anti-Christianity look.
|
eside the first post, which is not my words, I have not shown an anti-christian look.

5. Your quotes ARE irrelevent. Tell me how they have anything to do with what I'm arguing about.

I've said offense occurs in the mind of the reader and Theodore Schroeder spoke the same belief. The other quotes deal with the importance to allow people to get offended by such posts.

6. Religion is NOT philosophy. Wow... that's a completely retarded statement. Some branches of philosophy do question God(s), but religion is not philosophy.

Philosophy is a field of study that includes diverse subfields such as aesthetics, epistemology, ethics, logic, and metaphysics, in which people ask questions such as whether God exists, what is the nature of reality, whether knowledge is possible, and what makes actions right or wrong.
