I just updated my options to show my reps, and this comment appeared:
  • I notice you seem to be everywhere here on this Christian forum acting like you know everything there is to know about God. You don't know nothing. You don't care about the Non Christians, you're only there to act like you do. You have NO LOVE
That stung -- and I'm wondering just out of curiosity, how many of you would agree with this?

And have you been repped this way, as well?

Well, you are everywhere on this forum acting like you know everything there is to know about God.

The second clause is a double negative, "You don't know nothing" actually means you "do know something", so yeah, I'd agree with that too.

As far as caring goes, I guess it depends on the definition of "care". You don't actually evangelicasize, so perhaps it could be argued you don't care.

[*]I notice you seem to be everywhere here on this Christian forum acting like you know everything there is to know about God.

This is true, but then again many christians seem to act like they know everything about God.


You don't care about the Non Christians

This appears to be true, since you don't seem to have any intentions of communicating with people, it's all about getting attention and trying to pwn people.


You have NO LOVE

Rather presumptuous and probably not true. Just because a person acts like a circus clown online doesn't make them sociopaths in real life.

While I can't say I disagree with the comment personally (and if a Christian is saying that someone has no love, they usually mean they're not showing Christian love rather than sociopathy), I don't agree with the means of delivery. It's a pretty blatant abuse of the system and I hope something can be done about it.

hello av1611 I have been away from these forums for a while (just busy with other stuff) and I 'd like to engage more with unbelievers because I really do care about them, - not long ago I was just as unbelieving, skeptical and adamantly agnostic as they were about God and creation, so I know what its like to think that way. I was also hostile to christians, only because I was jealous they had faith and hope and I had..well..nothing but what 'expert's knew...and they really didn't know anything about life or what was really important about it.

ok the only constructive criticsm I'd have for you av1611 is that you are on this forum an awful lot but you tend to argue unnessarily and I do get a sense you are very american-centric in your posts..not all the world revolves around america and their sometimes peculiar brand of christianity. But I like your sense of humour although some people would not 'get' it and find it annoying.

To unbelievers - When we know Jesus - we know God. It's pretty simple. You can't really know God without knowing Jesus, without believing what he says is true. And that's all there is to it.

Say, have you ever considered that you might have been completely totally utterly DIFFERENTLY unbelieving, sceptical and adamanty agnostic... and thus don't know what its like to think "that way"?

You don't know nothing.

Regardless of the double negative, I'm sure we all know what it is referring to. You don't know anything about the subjects you like to talk about here (evolution or science in general) (or sometimes mention and not talk about) and you seem to be proud of it. I am sure you're literate in the Bible, but you willfully parade your ignorance on evolution as a badge of honour and it is extremely unbecoming of people who share your faith as it promotes anti-intellectualism and laziness. I'm not sure you consider those who find your behaviour on this point embarrassing. You also take it upon yourself to demonize the subjects and those involved in said subjects that you admit you know nothing about and as of such inadvertently and without apology repeatedly irritate and insult people.

You also directly encourage the surrender of our reason in favour of faith in the Bible's account for creation and advocate a pseudo-theocracy as well as explaining natural disasters as linked to specific foreign policy events with Israel. These can be and are viewed as evil and nasty by observers and rightfully earn you scorn.

You don't care about the Non Christians, you're only there to act like you do. You have NO LOVE

I'm not sure you have no love, and I'm not sure whether you care about non-Christians. Your world-view could certainly be described as servile and therefore a form of masochistic love and I'm sure you advocate that form of love for others.

I thought you were pretty exclusive to Science and counting boards.

I think this thread might be against the rules as rep comments probably count as private correspondence.

I've had a couple of negative rep posts.
Very, very, very seldom do I report someone; especially if their comments are aimed at me -- but I'll report a post in a heartbeat, if it contains inappropriate content or cussing.

As I've said in the past, I enjoy your humor. I think many don't see it though and take you way too seriously. We can see that happening in the rep comment that you quoted.

Yeah I wonder about this too. Is this thread acceptable, AV? Should you have posted the comment word for word?

I would've changed a couple of things -- I'd eliminate the double negative and strike the clause about you "acting" like you care about non-Christians. If you've ever "acted" in such a way, it was far too unconvincing to be noteworthy.

And if my "histrionic narcissist" hypothesis is true, you at least have love for yourself.
