I already pretty much do that. I quietly classify specific people here as cartoon people in my mind, once they prove to be such. Once I classify them in this way, I almost never reply to them again, and when I do occasionally reply to them I expect some kind of nonsense in response.What do you think would happen if you only responded to the threads where those asking a question actually wanted an answer?

It works well, and I think everyone should try it. Most CARM posters don't.

Why are we here, then?C'mon atheists, just admit why you are here.
Engaging with nonsensical responses works well? Try the "Ignore" button. It works perfectly.I already pretty much do that.

It works well,
I've lost count of how many people I have on "Ignore". Trust me, this site is infinitely better. The only hiccup is that there are a few people who we're not allowed to place on "ignore" which forces me to adopt your position. Fortunately, they are very few.and I think everyone should try it.

Why are we here, then?
I want to know why you think we are here.Have you not already posted why you are here?
Are you not entertained?
I want to know why you think we are here.
Which is why I am certain that you will not give the answer.
Yeah, pretty much the same. I've given up on finding a forum where Christians legitimately want to engage with non-Christians and actually discuss issues related to Christianity. I've kinda settled here because at least (some of) the 'Christians' are entertaining, even if they're not what I'm looking for.Tried it, couldn't really stick to it.

lollol
It's fascinating watching these atheists try to act like they are here for serious discussion.
Some are so deep in their own stuff they think they are right because they don't respond.
C'mon atheists, just admit why you are here. Honesty is far better than acting like you are above it all.
What do you think would happen if you only responded to the threads where those asking a question actually wanted an answer?
No, they're not.Christians are here because of the great commission, it's not a secret, silly.
No. Never have been.Are you afraid to say what's on your mind atheist?
No, I did not.I mean you tried to flatter me by your post, but I am not easily flattered.
To what? You asked one question in your post, which I answered.Got any answer, atheist?
I think you misunderstood, my question, but I deduce from your reply that you currently don't respond to every threadI'd respond to every thread.
Actually, I notice that both Christians and Atheists tend to ask questions that they don't want an answer to... we're all human.lol

Might I suggest reading more books of people you disagree with? I do it from time to time; I'm still fighting people, but now it looks like I'm educating myselfTried it, couldn't really stick to it.

I didn't know there was an ignore button. Does it hide posts from people? Wouldn't that make it difficult to follow certain threads if you can only see one side of the conversation? Or does it hide your posts from the other person?Engaging with nonsensical responses works well? Try the "Ignore" button. It works perfectly.

It's interesting because I had a debate with my sister over evangelism. I'm all for cold call evangelism but she saw that as... basically abuse.Christians are here because of the great commission, it's not a secret, silly.
