What's with zealots!?

Featured Replies

I'm sorry if this is breaking forum rules but this thread says nothing controversial.

 

 

 

What is with these zealots in runescape! I entered a clan chat. Said hi, there seemed to be a discussion going on. It seemed to be about religion. Now one person was making tons of points about how religion was true. I said to him,what evidence do you have and he started

 

A flame war. I don't understand why people cant debate instead of arguing. The diffrence is you repsect other peoples opinions.

 

 

 

Also ignoring him didn't work as everyone else else was arguing, i'm sick of people who start being rude to you I'm runescape.

It's the internet. If you want a debate, join your local debate team.

We have no proof that either proves the exsistance, or disproves the exsistance of a higher diety.

 

 

 

You started an arguement you cannot end. You are the one at fault.

Every topic online is bound to start a flame war as the instant someone voices an opinion, all of the idiots come out of the woodwork to fire off every talking point they have in their belt. Religion just happens to have a lot of idiots, on all sides, and is a subject matter that is so personal that its flammability is literally off the charts.

 

 

 

There's a time and place for religious debate. Runescape isn't that place.

And I'll reiterate for effect:

I'm a religious man, and yet I also am willing to rationally discuss my faith. Please don't form an opinion about an entire religion based on a few radicals who have voices.

Rule of thumb, don't think you can ever have a serious discussion with random players you meet on runescape, 90% of the time it will turn into a flame war.

That goes for all of the interwebz too. I am rational about religion, but its the internet I enjoy flame wars.

The worst is when you are having a good discussion and someone just jumps in and starts spamming and flaming for no reason.

This is the internet, if you voice your opinion, there is an idiot who will flame you about it.

 

Fact of life.

Do you expect that everyone you will meet in RS is an educated person? This game is filled with kids who haven't reached intellectual maturity yet, it's not surprising that you will sometime argue with bad apples.

 

 

 

Ohhh and to everyone on this thread who claim he started the flame war by asking for evidence... shame on you!

I donno.

 

 

 

How did the universe start... The big bang can't have suddenly warped into existence.

 

 

 

But then... Where did god come from?

 

 

 

:thumbsup:

O.O

Honestly, its the internet.

 

 

 

People will resort to flaming if their "evidence" in questioned or they have no suitable reply.

 

 

 

And really, religion and stuff are all very touchy matters, so don't type anything that might be offensive to a highly religious person. It could start racial riots and stuff.

Yea.

 

 

 

No go zones on the internet.

 

 

 

Race.

 

 

 

Americans (no they aren't dumb) :D

 

 

 

Religion.

It's all about perspective, I'm an atheist and I could say that all mention of gods is offensive to me. I wouldn't because I actually enjoy seeing religious people trying to convert me.

QFT, I love it when religious people try to shove their misguided beliefs down my throat, and then whine and get angry if you come up with a rational argument against them :D

In doing that are you any different than they are? You're trying to convert them, aren't you? :twss:

 

Not that I fully agree with that, but someone has to play devil's advocate :twisted:

 

 

 

Though it really sounds like the OP started it.

Considering that the flame war started after he asked according to him... He may be more guilty of baiting it. If the discussion was going well before he entered, what did he think he would accomplish by saying that out of the blue?

What's the point of a discussion if you can't ask question? I know freedom of speech is not a high priority in a lot of religion, call me foolish or whatever, but I do believe in it.
