- | Darth Dawkins aside, presuppositionalists aside, Christians invariably demonize those who disagree with them. The extent to which this occurrs depends on the experience the Christian has with apologetics. Christians who do not have good experience invariably respond with anger and hatred. In the context of an online debate, it is possible to be muted and personally attacked within 30 seconds of entering a debate with a christian so long as you do not allow them to bully you in the debate. | + | Darth Dawkins aside, presuppositionalists aside, Christians invariably demonize those who disagree with them.

The Christian typically attempts to establish power and control psychologically early on in the debate by slightly insulting the intellectual capacity of their debate partner. Usually this takes the form of bullying in some way, but each Christian has their own way of bullying and controlling a conversation. Often, when a Christian is losing a debate, they will fill the air with words and (at times, dozens of..) bible verses, many of which begin to speak to something off-topic. Invariably the tactic is to revert to a testimony or a re-iteration of christian theology. Rarely is the actual question or topic addressed; the Christian honestly feels that if he can just reiterate christian theology and "make the case for Jesus" and then offer it to the opponent, he has "done his job". | The Christian typically attempts to establish power and control psychologically early on in the debate by slightly insulting the intellectual capacity of their debate partner.

I cannot express to you the number of times that Christians -- and, great numbers of Christians -- different Christians -- have muted me simply for being able to ask questions or debate points they could not answer. Christians are power tripping narcissists. They DO NOT care about you and they DO NOT care about your questions. | I cannot express to you the number of times that Christians -- and, great numbers of Christians -- different Christians -- have muted me simply for being able to ask questions or debate points they could not answer.
