Yes, I know all of this and get it. I get that you're tired of it. But all I see is someone being unnecessarily snarky in someone else's conversation and you defending and justifying it with "we're tired of it". I didn't make a big deal of it at all, if someone's going to disrespect me like that I'm not giving it the time of day, but you're here justifying it so now I have to reply why it's not an ok response and have to justify my own reply because you projected that I am trying to convert this random drive by commenter when I was clearly not
Why don't we just accept that you two are being unnecessarily disrespectful? I do not enter other people's conversations and reply with "I don't want to hear this". That's all there is to it
no, i don't agree that i was being disrespectful - and i think it's interesting that someone trying to explain a non-christian pov to you is received that way.
i think i wasted my time. this is why i typically nod politely when christians talk to me, it's just easier.
So when you say "whatever you say" it's just easier, but when I say it in reply to a one word comment that's just disrespectful it's me trying to convert someone to Christianity... ok. Do you not see your hypocrisy? You are the one who is accusing me of something and when I justify myself and disagree you're just like "I'm wasting my time". I did not come into your conversation to tell you about Christianity, you came into mine to tell me I'm trying to convert someone when i wasn't at all. I was literally just equally replying snarkily
I understand non Christian povs. I'm just saying, Christian discussion or not, "death-cultsplainin'" was never appropriate and is an unwarranted response. That's all there is to it. There's nothing more to explain there. I don't come into a soccer team discussion and say "cultist" to a person who is a fan of one team. Christian or not it's disrespectful and non contributive. You're just trying to justify rude behaviour because you're personally tired of theological discussions.
Do you agree that the original "death-cultsplainin'" comment is unwarranted or do you think their comment was necessary and justified? Like be objective about it. If you think it's the latter, then we can just agree to disagree on how we engage in online discourse. In any context, I prefer not to call people cultists without explanation and think that's inappropriate, and you can prefer to think that's fine, sure. But such comments objectively lead to lower quality conversations and negative vitriol so I choose to say it's not appropriate and adds nothing to these threads aside from raising negative emotions. You don't have to be Christian to understand my sentiment. I understand yours fine. I'm just telling you why its not appropriate.
