What Makes A Good Thread On R & S?
89 Answers
If a believers view is expressed on here, the responsive message is, in general terms, "Shut up stupid! Father Xmas & Tooth Fairy. You betray yourself thinking illogically! You are wrong and we are right!"
These sentiments are often accompanied by anything from mild annoyance, to anger.
So, what makes a good thread on here, in your opinion?
Should the atmosphere be like PM's question time in the Commons, or like a social drinking session amongst friends in the local?
Or something else I have not yet covered?
And, if I post a thread, what would make it interesting for you?

In response to the allegation that I might sometimes seem illogical, then consider the whole cause and effect discussion.
Even at the quantum level where scientists probe for answers to the origin of the universe, assumed preconditions are a necessity for any explanation.
Preconditions infer a deeper cause, and believers will accept the first cause as God, who is in Himself the embodiment of first cause and effect.
It is pointless to ask who created God. Nobody did, as God is eternal and is completely self contained.
Science can never explain or understand everything, as then it would have to explain and understand itself, and be left with no questions, a logical impossibility.
I once created a teapot stand in one of my woddwork lessons.
Thought somebody might be interested in that.

// Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy are supernatural creatures which are said to do magical things and for whose existwence there is not a modicum of evidence. //
Not true chakka. I get presents every year signed 'from Santa'.
// Its only the religious people who get angry //
Definately not true either.

Society, no, Mani doesn't post here any more. He asked for his account to be terminated.
Theland, your last post is a perfect example of your irrationality.
//..... God is eternal and is completely self contained.//
You declare that as a definite statement of fact, but since no one knows if a creator god exists your statement is completely illogical. The thing is, if a creator god does exist it is very clearly extremely unlikely that any human being - priest, teacher, minister, cleric, academic, scientist, theologian, king, sheik, imam, ayatollah, president - no one on this earth - is qualified to define - or even comment upon - his/its nature - but you, Theland, do - and you are not alone. Even though you and he do not agree, Keyplus does it too - constantly. You two, like the rest of the religious (of whatever persuasion) tell us with all conviction that you know his/it's nature and his/it's wishes. Anyone could easily be forgiven for thinking you have a special hotline to god - but we all know you don't - and in truth, you know you don't. You just kid yourself you do - at least you kid yourselves that your teachers, who for some unaccountable reason you presume to be 'wise' and to know more about this god than anyone else does, know all about it. Well they don't - and that really is a genuine, bona fide fact! The claims of religion simply cannot be rationally justified. Why can't you see that?
Answers on a postcard please.
Jom, I assure you there is plenty for a non-believer to get angry about.

My word Nims, Another attack of "Apostrephenibiisis!" Poor you.
I remember back in 2007 you had similar problems, foaming at the mouth, slurring your words, and even getting considered for an A.S.B.O.
It turned out you had found another key to the wine cellar, so you escaped a stiff sentence of six months having to wear Boots makeup and dressing in Primark.
