@Benjamin
I WAS SPEAKInG OF YOUR PERSONAL REASONS. Most other atheists, don't believe because of a lack of evidence. As you stated in the opt in a roundabout way, you don't believe because you like the ideal of free will.
When I was an atheist. I simply did not believe, because there was a lack of evidence. Most atheists are that way.
You however are unique.

I thought you were referring to post one of this thread obviously, genius. Lol. You aren't this dumb. Stop pretending to be, because you think it makes me look bad

Op is correct. All theists pretty much agree with op. Op, do you refuse to believe in God, merely because you fear the truth, that you have no free will?

I was referring to using power to protect people, he implied I am pro-abuse.
This is how people who abuse power always frame it.

That is the full quote about your goal with this forum. I linked to it, so anybody could see it is the full quote

your misogyny is a lot more elliot rodgers-esque btw
I was referring to his personality, not his ideology.
For example a perceived persecution complex, dividing the world into persecutors and persecuted. Also the privileged childhood, combined with a very isolated childhood, similar to yours that contributes to wierd personality quirks

The narcissism in that post makes me feel bad for you. Bragging of being manipulative is not a good look, but at least you are honest

You talk about nuance and social strategy, I played you like a fiddle and right here right now if you replace out for Pie it is too late and will make Pie look fake as well as you because the only votes that would maintain are the ones you already have anyway.

Correct, we need fascism. Petitions are corrupt, so is the system. Mere written law does not work. We need a ruthless dictator who is also altruistic

He's likely to attract people who would vote for you more than people who would vote for me based on what I predict his platform will be.
If this is true, I request he drop out of the race and pledge his support to me

@badger
I would also like to pledge my full-throated support to a candidate. Either one, doesn't really matter.
I would appreciate the full throated support from you, and had I realized that oromagi was giving throated support, I would have been nicer to him in the past.

recommend to read pages of each in order to not take our own words at face value and see each try to expose the other.
This us untrue. I asked you questions previously before I decided to run, to give you the opportunity to respond to what might be a concern of some of your critics who would be on the fence about whether to vote for you or pie.
It was meant to help you. I don't think there I anything to expose.
It's hard to keep that in mind while you are constantly attacking me, but I have no interest in exposing you. I'm just here to give voters a real alternative. You poll better against pie than me, and as you said, you want a more close competition.

@3RU7AL
i've discussed this issue with @DebateArt.com and they've indicated that it might be feasible to also hide all posts from a user on your blocked list - rendering all your posts invisible to them and their posts invisible to you
I have seen sites allow you to hide posts of others from yourself, but hiding your posts from them is stupid

Full verse from a more modern translation
"If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell."

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for. thee that one of thy members should perish

Like I said in the other thread. Just somebody who is told by God to cut off their arm. I would advise you to ignore hallucinations if they tell you to do so.
Jesus says in the new testament that if your eyes keep you from heaven to cut them out, and Jesus goes through a few body parts, saying that it is better to go to heaven without your body parts than to let them keep you from heaven.
Created:
No, just advising people who God tells to cut off their arm, to do so.
I'd advise ignoring hallucinations, if they make that request

@TheUnderdog
I believe God exists but he is a genocidal maniac unfit for worship. He supports cruel and unusual punishment (something that liberals oppose) and he supports censorship (something that conservatives oppose).
God's ethics are none of your business. If he tells you to cut off your right arm, you do it. He is your master.

@FLRW
then the question has merely been deflected to that of who created God. Both authors claim that it is possible to
That doesn't sound like something Stephen hawking would say, since his theories don't assume anything has to even have a beginning. Including the universe.

Why do you think being frustrated because of a perceived injustice by "harrassers " , gives people the right to act out on their frustrations in immature and hostile ways?
Why do you think those people deserve any special defense, once they begin lashing out?

As the rules state I am not allowed to start campaign threads any more, so this in effect makes my campaigning suspended.
I am still running for president, but just suspending the campaign.
If my supporters want me elected, I advise them to reach out to other users independently of me and organize to keep them updated on the election in a neutral fashion, and to each reach out to 3 people out of their normal circle and get them to take action by voting.
I encourage an outreach to long time users who have went silent to come back merely for a vote to show they still cares what happens to the site.
My vice president will announce himself after his current mission is complete and I will be online approximately 5 minutes a day to work with my advisors and liaisons to the site.

I have no problem with legitimate comparisons. For example Hitler policies were economic interventionist through increased regulations, was pro abortion, and anti guns. So when leftists call you a nazi for defending the 2nd amendment, they are quite literally being retarded.
Created:
Lol, if this is confusing you, please take nootropics.
I divided your advocacy into 2 groups. The systematic changes you want and that are similar to policies Hitler passed, but on a smaller scale, Would not be something I would put you in charge of.
The actual advocacy of petitioning members to be nicer through kindness initiatives and appealing to their humanity, is what would be allowed

If I am wrong, then relay the information to us all, agreed? As in the results.
He literally said the information was being relayed to everyone in the op. I am not sure if this is trolling or a sign of something we should be concerned about.
We're you legitimately dumb enough to think the information would not be openly shared?

@Polytheist-Witch
So what is your theory on the origin of the universe?
Let me see, since I used to be into Wicca when I was 13 years old, but grew out of it.
You think mother goddess created the world. A single goddess, and then birthed the other gods.
Basically monotheism, but since you use semantics to say she birthed God's I stead of angels, it is called polytheism

I just blocked RM. The only reason though is because once he blocks somebody, he will start overly pinging them.
No, Don't ask why I was blocked, probably because I asked if he want to have a public discussion on like discord chat or something

On behalf of who? Who gets to see Pie's PMs and benefits from the data that's collected?
He said he would release the information publicly. Interested to hear your conspiracy theory about it though. The questions seem even handed

Not at all, you even followed it up saying you'd be happy to work with me on it with the mods but I am so used to your fakeness and gaslighting that I was ready for you to go back on your word like you always do.

@Polytheist-Witch
Sort of. Monotheist are atheists to all other religions.
So what is this polytheism thing?
You don't believe in a specific creator God, they all worked as a team to create the world?
If there is a single creator God and lesser gods and that is why you call yourself polytheism than it is semantics. Lesser God's and angels would be the same exact thing, and then we are debating semantics here.

My father advised me when I was 15 any man that brags about anything he does sexually is a liar and that advice has been shown to be very accurate so I'm sure you're quite adept.
He must have a lot of sexual experience with men, to know that. My experience is more limited, so I can't say how accurate his statement is.

@Intelligence_06
Common sense and common knowledge I would differentiate. Common knowledge is mostly wrong. As your example suggests.
Common sense would be your ability to grasp what the average person means when they make very vague statements. Language is often very contextual. Perhaps you have more of an engineering type mind that has trouble grasping Common sense. If you are bad at math I would avoid trying to waste time becoming an engineer though
