no he meant to say was our topic

2020-12-01 15:26:20 UTC  

I could only assume that she perhaps thinks this is a far less toxic section of Discord in relation to other parts concerning masks.

2020-12-01 15:26:23 UTC  

aahh

2020-12-01 15:26:28 UTC  

Got it, I was on the line of the fact that covid is not a faith based discussion

2020-12-01 15:26:52 UTC  

And this is open to all faiths, not just Christians

2020-12-01 15:27:02 UTC  

Gotcha

2020-12-01 15:27:40 UTC  

There do happen to be a lot of Christians on here though 🙂

2020-12-01 15:28:06 UTC  

I figured my question fit here best XD

2020-12-01 15:28:34 UTC  

*Shocked gasp* Really? I wouldn't have guessed there were many Christians here... Great Scott!!!!!

2020-12-01 15:29:18 UTC  

i am only 3 days new in this server..... and in this section majority i see are Christians

2020-12-01 15:29:50 UTC  

I'm sure there are some Jews, agnostics, the occasional Muslim, we allow all the faiths, as long as they aren't nuts

2020-12-01 15:30:11 UTC  

Ummmm...... define "nuts" lol

2020-12-01 15:30:17 UTC  

elaborate pls

2020-12-01 15:30:22 UTC  

Why would someone have to wear an id around their neck at school. Sounds sketchy. I would question it. There is no good reason for that.

2020-12-01 15:30:26 UTC  

I mean. I taught preschool at a christian school.

2020-12-01 15:30:53 UTC  

An example of nuts would be Aztec religion involving ritualistic cannibalism in human sacrifice.

2020-12-01 15:30:54 UTC  

Mo-me that is why I'm like ... hmmmmm

2020-12-01 15:31:11 UTC  

Religious nuts of any faith that take it over the edge, and they aren't willing to hear people disagree with them, just cuz it makes the discussion spiral and turn super heated

2020-12-01 15:31:26 UTC  

I have never heard of a school requiring that ever. A pandemic shouldnt change that

2020-12-01 15:31:27 UTC  

ouh.....

2020-12-01 15:31:31 UTC  

Been there, not done that.@Dstar_Destroyer

2020-12-01 15:31:34 UTC  

Yea, I don't debate well.

2020-12-01 15:31:43 UTC  

I'm like. Nope.

2020-12-01 15:32:07 UTC  

Debates can get very toxic. Just 2 nights ago I got called a racist.

2020-12-01 15:32:16 UTC  

And this isnt a place for debate, its just a room for faith based discussions or quotes from their holy books

2020-12-01 15:32:24 UTC  

Well you are a Smurf

2020-12-01 15:32:31 UTC  

True.

2020-12-01 15:33:02 UTC  

I've seen someone ask a question about God in here, then criticize and refuse any answer that had God in it..

2020-12-01 15:33:03 UTC  

We live in mushrooms. We're bound to be a little loopy

2020-12-01 15:33:31 UTC  

Some people are like that, and we try to stop those discussions before it gets to heated

2020-12-01 15:36:27 UTC  

Anyone ever read the spiritual man by watchman nee?

2020-12-01 15:38:43 UTC  

Cause I’m reading it right now, and it’s really good.

2020-12-01 15:38:43 UTC  

The issue I find with some, not all, people who are anti-religious is when they ask me what my faith does for me. When I answer "It gives purpose in an otherwise pointless existence", the normal response insinuates that I am either akin to a child who doesn't want to grow up and get rid of his imaginary friend. Another response is so loaded with arrogance it's stifling. The assuming that I am enslaved, chained by our faith. That they, the non-religous, are somehow "better", as they are "unshackled". I try to avoid people like that.

2020-12-01 15:39:05 UTC  

@Milkgamer55 Haven't had the chance to read it.

2020-12-01 15:39:45 UTC  

Or they say it is a crutch

2020-12-01 15:39:55 UTC  

@KaywinnitLee That too.

2020-12-01 15:39:55 UTC  

Honestly my studies show that religion is a great motivational thing and can do alot for people

2020-12-01 15:40:08 UTC  

My studies being my love of history

2020-12-01 15:40:16 UTC  

Jesus is my crutch

2020-12-01 15:40:37 UTC  

Lol Jesus is my iron lung

2020-12-01 15:41:43 UTC  

I'm Christian but I resist the complete believe for complicated reasons
