Why do people in this forum think they are better then everybody else.

Atheists, Christians or muslim lovers they all consider themselves more important then others who take part in this forum.

Everybody's substance on a message board is essentially the substance of what they post. All posts/posters are not equal in terms of the quality or sincerity or relevance or usefulness of what they have to say. People cannot be equally important because importance is subjective. The internet empowers people but it does so indiscriminately.

Not so. You asked about the issue of how "important" people consider themselves [and, by extension, others] to be when engaging in debate and discussion on a forum like this.

Who is more "important" or less "important" or "superior" or "inferior" to someone else is a subjective matter for each person.

I do not consider myself more important, just frequently more correct.

And the hypothesis was all people in the spirituality forum think they are better then everybody else. Can't be true.

It is the starting place we see ourselves in, I believe each one of us was made in the image of God so it is a common place for all people regardless of everything else about them. If any has some notion that there are some better than others that creates an unlevel playing field then your assessment is correct. We were made in God's image and we are all fallen so none are better than the next guy no matter what we think of ourselves or others.

So as an atheist you feel superior. What about love. Do you have superior love to kelly jay?

a horse is given blinders to help shield him from his fear
tunnel vision is his balm
to see everything and to realize yer fear, and allow it to pass, will bring peace

How did you get that from my reply?

Are correct people superior or merely correct?
