[One the other boards I frequently post on, the SAB, has a frequent fundy poster named Troy Brooks who has been banned from many forums. Here is something from one of his latest sockpuppet posts on the SAB, "How Will the Antichrist Win You Over Forever?".]
Non-Christians don't like the peace they have created for themselves because it is uprooted by the peace Christians can display. So the non-Christians get jealous, agitated, losing that feeling self-exaltation in their self-generated peace, which is bound to crumble sooner or later. So they react by attacking Christians.

That doesn't make any sense at all. What a surprise. Non-Christians become jealous at the peace Christians have? I have never once gotten into a fight, and yet I don't envy anyone, from the crusades all the way to the religious right pundits on TV one bit.
I suppose that in your imaginary reality there is this constant battle... no, a WAR, between christians and the unbelievers who are trying to destroy you and your religion. However, here in the real world nobody cares. I for one do not waste my time on attacking christians. They are the ones who knock on my door and tell me that I'm a worthless sinner. You get the picture now?
I think he deserves a WTF award, for the way he express himself. However, and watching similar posts, I understand his underlying thesis. In Spain they say something like "don´t work for a former worker and don´t lend money to a former miser". What the proverb means is that there aren´t more despotic, tyrannical and ruthless bosses than the ones who were formerly mere workers and promoted rapidly and that there aren´t more arrogant, stupid, pompous and, at the same time, inconsistent people, than the ones who had it all, and suddenly had nothing and have to start again. I think that the metaphore is obvious. It´s happening with the communist in the former USSR countries and happens in the so-called Western society. That a church now, omnipotent in the past, has now difficulties in filling the temples, has the logical effect of confusing a logical loss of priviledges proportional to the loss of flock with a persecution.
You know, except for kvetching here, I have never attacked a Christian or anyone else in my life. Civilized people don't attack others for their beliefs; that's what rabid fundies (of all stripes) do.
My opinion is that religion is the source for a lot, if not most, of the problems we see in the world today. If we could do away with religion, all religion and the subsequent mindset, I think the world would be so much better off. However, religion does serve a purpose in holding back some of those we have seen quoted here that would go apeshit psycho if not for religion.
Yeah, you guys should just see some of the other crap he posts on message boards. As Claude also made a point of, his forums should not be missed just for the sheer insaness of them. The 4-Step Proof of God " which has been repeatedly debunked at the SAB. Basically, it says "Since we should have evolved into sinless beings by now, except that we haven't, that proves God."
Seriously. That's his argument. Some scary stuff this guy has up.
He is also famous for his forum, I forget it's name, where he challenges people to deny his proof of god. First you have to answer a questionaire to register and if any of your thoughts on scripture don't match his he won't let you join. Then if anyone actually does get to post anything he normally bans them after a single post telling them that they are "boastful and argumentative". He then spends his time on other boards whining that HE is being persecuted.
My stalker who kept using my same username is gone now. I expected him to come to this thread as well, but he didn't, so again, just let me leave you with these facts...
I didn't even know the SAB had a forum...
And I've seen Christian peace, in a woman who used to be a customer of mine. She was either brain-injured or developmentally disabled and had a view of Christianity that I'm sure some would consider childlike, but I considered incredibly creepy in its steadfast naivete. A fully functional person who had her outlook on life might actually come off as a sociopath.
Poor Troy. Only one stalker? Or a great many figments of your own imagination?
I think most of us gave up because you're way too easy to gaslight. You're a really boring target. It was fun watching you completely flip out with spam though.
Brian X,
Take for example the most extreme cases of mental damage say from a car accident. God still remains righteous, holy and true in all scenarios and for all people, so this person who would have a limited view of reality still has free-will no matter how damaged. God accounts for this and that person can be saved.
People lost in the world such as yourself will likely not be saved because they are proud of their own strength and independency from God, where someone with an illness will often give their lives to Christ due to knowing something greater is going on that God would allow such things to happen.
God's design is so excellent in every way.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
