I wonder if the passionate reddit atheists rock the Buddhism subreddit with similar zeal?
I'm guessing no because the median reddit atheist grew up in a certain kind of Christian household which has led to a bit of a chip on the shoulder. Not looking down on that, happened to me too, for awhile, in middle/highschool. | r/christianity | comment | r/Christianity | 2009-04-29 | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEtsUjBlZFZMd0xkSGptT2lUWVF1VlR1U253d1FRdlMzMldCMTVNRXBvdXc2Y3o4dE1JVTVTWGVaQ0dLT05iTFhXRjhVRHZqLVh2MzlEdHRkcWl0bTMzRnc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEs1X3VrTzljSC02OGVTYWdMUHdkMzdSQ3phamNGRHJJWXZCV2dCMkk1TFpSdWYyaXZ0OXdVT0JKNDVLaS02Wm1iUUdXWlFPNjk0X3lPdldQeW1RU1JBU1ItZ0x2aUZFVm96Y0lYSzFfRXRGclFWSUVaQ2EzOW5QRmFDRzVCSE92N25CQXVOc3B6SzBQaHNKQmhTaXh2WDlrZjJxZk5McDNzdDNURUh3bWQzSmRMWi10TWM1NUJMSXNLNjFLUmtHSjJMNERDNV94YVhaZlpvUjhwVWZZbGlrdz09 |

I'll be interested to see if he's addressed the criticisms to his '[courtiers reply](http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2006/12/the_courtiers_reply.php)' in his book; but even if he hasn't, it should be an interesting read. | r/christianity | comment | r/Christianity | 2009-04-29 | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEtsaHhsWEt1ZlVxQkJLZjVIY2VJbUFOSFFvSkhSX1p0OURMWnYwa2l5OFRrMlRZeG92NDlXZ3Job3BHMlpzSmU5MkVwMWtiNDJRYXliY1lvanBLamp3TkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEs1OHk5UzROXzY4dEtvSmlxVWpfSzZpdjZpSllGOURCWVZXc0FMRjhjQjhsNGptcjNFOWZ0S0RscjhGYVZObGYzd1RFMG4xSE1iTmFZNDMwVGNJcXBOaTh6WHlob3JlZ3hOTDRkTG1DQ196dklxVmxvRzNQd2RUVXl3YV9iODVNU3YyQzZ5MVo2TFB0TmdoNkRFWVlwN2FuSDFfeUhCX2JwYW1Oclk0S3ZneElLZ2dmemN2VU5mNzdNZ0RQWnQ0WEdPUjhCT0dsWkJtVWZoSmE3WFZLM0dfQT09 |

Not disagreeing with you. Trolls exist and are a part of any group.
peteyH however claims to respond to sincere inquiries about his faith but at the same time seems to consider that **all** atheists on the Internet and specifically on reddit are trolls. That seems to be a contradiction.

You can disagree all you want. It doesn't make you right. It also isn't something you'd find common among Presbyterian churches since resurrection is still one of their dogmas.

Welcome to reddit! All posts everywhere receive an automatic downvote. The spammers have been here for awhile and aren't going anywhere soon, but it's either here or Digg. | r/christianity | comment | r/Christianity | 2009-05-03 | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEtsVGU0VW9QWXRzT3diMmJrZ3dHRm84TENqLXRuNUpMTG9pUFJNZjhERkt4MENrYzRPc0RvNU1ZSkxCNjIwRE8xWW1lMGNyTkdWUHp3SkxweEQxTlkwNWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9jNEs1eEZ3S3lDWWFNZWVvb2ZPZXZFMWtOYkJwM29PdGFnMzRZdjczZy1BQnJMQWZ3a2x1NV9ibkkyMVQ0aVZad2I5Z1B6R1BaTVhyMncxd0U2c19ieGd5WnRmbEc2VW1Cal90YWg3MHRpcGdOSDkyRlNSd3V5d25mc0Jqc2pqNkZZUDBYLVRDdTRCYlg3WWJTVXh1TWVfZHZBdW5qcENQWFE1MTJzZGVLeEVUYzQxdkExVHVkb3RFcGRraVRIWk9PZHFfeXJ0YlE5UjJOMlVkd212anhqS2NTUT09 |
