How do you feel when someone here preaches at you?

As a white, male, heterosexual, gun owning, conservative Christian, with NO criminal record, who loves and served this country, pay all taxes levied, and provide a service to the community, I’m beginning to lose my tolerance with the castigation, insults, name-calling and degradation, leveled my way, from liberal counterparts. Sure, I disagree with the radical left and the progressive agenda, so what…! I have personal beliefs. Unfortunately, there resides a sense that, in the liberal mind, I, and those like me, are pariahs, must be silenced, if not erased from this society. Am I wrong, or do liberals feel this is a ‘one-ideology’ society (theirs), and those who resist and dispel their agenda are a cancer on the country and must be eliminated?

I just haul out the ultimate weapon, I ignore them.

Nauseated. I've had to pull myself away from some Christians in my life because of this. Sad.

...... they say you shouldn't discuss politics and religion, I disagree with that, We talk about all kinds of political issues, and We also talk about all realm of religious issues, I include myself in both discussion forums, I will not use vulgarity in making my views known, I have a strong Christian belief in God, and I am not one to speak meekly in making my point of view understood, if people don't like what I post, then the delete key is not far away, over the years, God has given me a wonderful spiritual gift, on spiritual discernment, to be aware of oncoming changes and issues, before They take place, it's not anything magical, a person can listen or not listen, once I discern eagerness or disinterest I will know what to do..... if a person criticizes me, that is one thing, but speaking against God, I do take issue with, and will deal with each situation one by one, ...... I want to be compassionate and kind, so I don't consider myself a problem for this Soda Head website.....My Friends, They know me, and that makes all the difference in discussing all issues here, .......

it depends i mostly feel uncomfortable but when im in a bad mood it just pisses me off. like please keep your religion to yourself

I stop them and say you wasting your time i don"t belive in it go and find some one who does

Depends if they're repeating dogma or instructing you. I won't have someone dictate to me just because they read it in a book.

Much of what is wrong in this world stems from beliefs and much more because people say nothing.

depends on what their preaching

It depends on what they are preaching 0.0.

Meh.

I usually will enter into a debate with them using scripture to back up my position as well as the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek texts.

If there's the Anointing of The Holy Spirit, fine. If not, exit time.

I'll let you kow when it happens.

Now let me tell you what the bible says about that.

I'm sorry, what did you say?

lol

I don't think anyone likes to be preached at.

Like posting two relevant scenes from Kingdom of Heaven. The first, I put no stock in Religion


The second,A valuable Lesson

I let them and when they finally finish

I try to see if they are sincere and make the jesture with a good heart , if that is the case I will listen consider and be polite .

Annoyed.

Some of these guys think they're "all that" and they're not.

Amused.

sorry for them

Generally bored... the only time I put up with being preached it is at church on Sunday.

Bored

Being older I have heard 99% of the diatribe some folks spew as the latest insight in their knowledgeable view. I ignore most of it.

annoyed sometimes, but their intention makes a difference and if they can also have a regular conversation.

Every instance is different. Unless I'm being insulted by the person I don't mind.

...like maybe karma is biting me in the butt.

It really depends on the preaching. Though an atheist myself, I see value in some religious teachings. It's when it is used to justify bigotry and hatred that bothers me.

Violent. Especially when it's an atheist. Oh whoops, they don't preach, they "inform." Jackasses.

Wow. Believers in the supernatural are getting mighty insecure these days. Violence? Lovely.

Of course, I don't like atheists so I must be a theist. I don't believe in the supernatural jackass. I didn't even claim I did you presumptuous prick. Piss off.

Calm down there boss. Don't go gunning down any school kids or anything.

As an atheist, I despise the self righteous, know-it-all types who think they and only they have it all down right and everyone else is wrong.

I’ve had some good people offer a kind word based on their Christian beliefs or a gesture of prayer and I appreciate that. If it comes from a sincere and good place in their hearts, how could I be upset?
