Religion threads in a nutshell

Topic is usually something that sets the stage for a flame war, or maybe it's some casual question like "what religion are u?" or something (doesn't really matter).

1st page: "lol, flame war incoming", some guys claim to be religious or atheist then just leave the thread. Some other atheist, or whoever, decides to add fuel to the fire by questioning another person's beliefs.

(several pages later)

11th page: Various paragraphs/walls of flame everywhere because the posters have nothing better to do with their lives but participate in arguments with Anonymous Internet denizens.

Seriously, cut it with the religion threads. All they do is bring more unnecessary hate on Basil.

@NayaVivant: I wasn't trolling, and you're wasting my time.
Please accept my apology, Mr. Perfect and I'll leave you alone.

@thatbox: Stop reading the comments if it annoys you.

@NayaVivant: Sorry I took so long. I was occupied with another matter of greater importance at the time. Okay well, calling yourself perfect. That is completely logical and factual is it not? Have you not forgotten about "Except when I'm right and they're wrong. Read: All the time."?
Because you know everything right?
I used the phrase calling everyone an idiot to refer to your condescending writing that you use. It's clear your writing is meant to evoke a sense of anger; like you have something to prove and need to call everyone else down to do it. That is why you thought I was "madfurious" earlier.
There's no need to write to everyone like you're better than them, which, in any case, you've shown you're not.

@NayaVivant: I do not seek the attention of anyone whose opinions about myself do not matter nor do I need to seek to prove a point that has already proven itself time and time again. If [b]you[/b] truly did not care for attention, you would not have responded in the first place. I simply wish to better the Maple Story community as a whole by disproving the arguments of a person who:
1. Does not use logic
2. Does not use facts
3. Claims to be perfect
It is irrelevant what the purpose of this site is for. What is relevant is whether or not people can discuss their views without somebody coming in and deifying himself whilst calling everyone an idiot.

@NayaVivant: Why would I seek the approval of a child, or anyone for that matter? I'm not desperately requiring attention like some other person. If you think that's a lavish example, than you need to expose yourself to more of the world.
Why would you feel flattered by somebody you perceive to be stupid trying to earn your approval? Great minds think alike, or in your case, don't.

For a moment I thought this thread would make a difference in my life.
Then I read the comments.

@NayaVivant: LOL. You sound really desperate to get likes or make yourself appear cool. Nice invention of words too.
Why would I be madfurious when it's clear that you can't even participate in a conversation without resorting to the most childish methods of communication?

Whatever you do
don't feed the troll.

There's little accomplishment in getting the better of someone on the Internet, anyway.

@NayaVivant: You have the maturity level of a five year old if you can't even make a statement without mocking the other person or using [i]facts.[/i]

Okay Mr. Perfect. I'll call you when I need your help Read: All the time.
You're the -perfect- example of what I mean. Everything you say starts a flame war. The sheer fact of claiming to be correct all the time is immature and stupid and it starts unnecessary confrontations. You argue like a little child. You don't even use logic or even something that closely resembles reasoning.

@NayaVivant: That's not the point. Calling someone an idiot isn't even logical. If anything, it makes it harder for you to prove your point.

Actually, a better call would be to cut out the immature comments on Basil. We all understand that you have different beliefs. You don't need to call everyone an idiot who doesn't believe the same thing as you.
