Is it assumed on the part of some theists, that other theists should be here in this spirituality forum only to engage in discussion that sets them on the correct path? Also is it assumed that non-theists should be here only to consider submissively the words of theists about some 'one true god', and forsaking all others come to accept and offer their hearts to this entity??
Conversely, is it assumed on the part of some atheists that theists should ultimately drop their superstitions after sufficient exposure to their "winning" arguments??
I'm not here to 'find God', nor am I here to destroy anyone's faith in it. I'm here to debate and discuss matters which interest me (most often the properties of some god or other and whether they're feasible or not); I often get the impression that I and others are treading metaphorical dog poo into the carpet of a house we weren't invited into!
