MODERATORS
You did tell me what you think, and I appreciate your honesty, but I didn't criticize you.. like on a personal level if that's what you mean.. I didn't crtisize anyone on this thread on a personal level ( yet everyone seem to take their dislike for Russell Brand on me, which is sad to see ) because I asked a question about Russell Brand's take, not Russell Brand himself... Not the person but the reasoning of that person...
I didn't say tell me what you think of Russell Brand?, instead : tell me what do you think about Russell's opinion? Two very different requests..
I just spotted a flaw in your reasoning and notified you about it, it's Ok to be flawed in your reasoning it's part of being human, and I think Russell's take is very flawed that you could see few flaws from the first watch..
I could have phrased my replies better that's for sure, but I'm asking you to leave what you think of him out of your conclusion, because this was an interesting video to watch for me, and I think it could be fun for you to debunk some of the things he said... Not debunk him.. :) ( the later is what you did, or tried to do.. )
It's been fun talking to you, hope I didn't offend you when I said "you didn't add anything to the conversation" that was pretty condescending.. If I did then I apologize..
Actually, you said, and I quote, "what do you guys think about Russell Brand getting Baptised?"
It's right at the top of the thread.
I told you what I thought and you didn't accept it.
Ok, fine... But I detailed it further to specifically ask for something... But... fine.. you're correct now
Do you mean like I disregard it? Or considered it unimportant ?... No..not all... It does matter but that's not it's place, like on this sublemmy.. we can take it to another place.. umm.. I feel like "acceptable" is not the term.. It's just.. like I asked for milk and you gave me yoghurt kinda analogy... or sugal for salt... It's just not answer I was looking for, and I wasn't looking for any particular answer to begin with.. I just didn't want Russell Brand to be the center of the subject... but rather his belief because this is a group for atheism..
