Hi again, this forums abit hectic so I'll just add this one
I really have tried to avoid making this about the reasons I don't believe and where I need to respond to questions surrounding this, I try to put it so you can tell that I speak from personal opinion.
As I'm really just trying to find middle ground with Christians for open dialogue, I've come across two main ideas. The first that has been said and acknowledged by others was that Talking about religion is a Christians reason for talking. I'm unsure if this is accurate, I hope someone will correct me otherwise. Secondly, that a nonbeliever isn't in himself considered to be "with" Satan but that his disbelief might be partly to do with Satan, or if not things in the world (considered Satan's domain), I hope once again I would be corrected. Lastly, I've come to a good conclusion at least in idea as I'm getting much feedback on it; that the believer/nonbeliever arguments likely become character attacks etc when a point of view is pushed toward the counterpart.
I'm interested how this idea can be made practical though.
hola again
it isn't hectic its just you had so many christians come at you with scripture and their view on atheism it was hard for you to find correct answers!
1) The first that has been said and acknowledged by others was that talking about religion is a Christians reason for talking.
actually no, like i said and this can be said for many christians. i personally wouldn't come to you and talk christianity. there is another life we have undoing. we do have fun there is things we do and talk about but we as christians try not to get sidetracked with god and try our best to stay with some positive talk about god in the mix.
that's as for me for instance. like if we were in a direct conversation and we were talking i.e. video games, movies, music. i could go on and on talking about those things but i would soon ask a question about your standing with religion.
but in my opinion no, religion is not a serious reason for me to talk.
2) Secondly, that a nonbeliever isn't in himself considered to be "with" Satan but that his disbelief might be partly to do with Satan, or if not things in the world (considered Satan's domain).
i would personally consider that as satan's way of confusing you spiritually but again as i said above when i mentioned "demonic spirit" we can sense that spirit and that's why we throw scriptures out.
if your disbelief is your disbelief it certainly means as said you don't have enough evidence to justify any clarification of worshiping god.
3) Lastly, I've come to a good conclusion at least in idea as I'm getting much feedback on it; that the believer/nonbeliever arguments likely become character attacks etc when a point of view is pushed toward the counterpart.
this is true it becomes character attacks and what we as christians and unbelievers need to realize is that we are human and we are not always going to see eye to eye on things, so what's the point of pressuring or criticizing someone on their own beliefs? i totally agree undoing
