Some evidence to support your claims would be useful...

Dead right... “ The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict...

Included...

This is exactly the same mode of thinking that had people convinced they should fly aircraft into skyscrapers...

Then your knowledge appears to be insufficient. Kylie included the following as an option in the OP... “saying that evidence could have been caused by lots of things,”

Yes, almost my entire life. Initially my parents and then the general laws of my society. Neither of whom would expect me to target another because of their beliefs...

Not quite. Your imperative to be ‘obedient’ is a bit like the question of your rights....and they end at the ‘tip of my nose’, don’t they? You get the right to hold your beliefs, but not to the extent that they can be used as a threat towards others...

Of course it is possible.....but, without further evidence, so is Kylie’s ‘magic pixie’ scenario. You see, with insufficient evidence to either support or contradict, you can make up virtually any story to explain a phenomenon.....

I respect that you have that belief, of course. People are free to believe whatever they like; I’m not in favour of ‘thought police’... It’s a matter of what you do with that belief that is important. You could, for example, believe that black people are inferior; no one can prevent you holding...

Yes, that is somewhat snarky. Indeed, this is Christian Forums...but it has built within it several sub-forums that are free to non-believers to participate. And you also have a rule that says that ALL belief stances are to be equally respected. When a ref makes a bum call, I’ve never heard him...

And there are rules in place that supposedly deal with those clashes. To repeat, if I claim that your beliefs are false, that your Bible is fictitious, that your god was manufactured by man, I will almost certainly receive a penalty, as I have in the past. The site rules claim that my religious...

Yes you are disrespecting another’s beliefs... “Unless you repent and believe the gospel, you will be judged by this evidence.” That’s a threat. It may not be one that you devised yourself, but you repeat it.

Yup...

Of course not...

Aren’t these descriptions supposedly inspired by a perfect god?

You went further than that....

Uh-uh.....right here, you’re a member like me, bound by very earthly rules...

If I made a comment to you or one of the other theists along the lines of “when you die, you will rot in the ground and cease to exist, because no god exists to cause any alternate outcome”, I would almost certainly receive a penalty (in fact, I have). Your comment ignores the fact that others...

ummm...the offensive comment wasn’t directed at Kylie...

You have zero evidence. What you have is a group of men like yourself who make unevidenced claims. The plural of baseless claims does not equal ‘evidence’.
