I'm with him. As long as we don't troll but instead rationally debate these people I see no reason to put a stop to it. We're engaging in rational, if provactive, debates.

Example of what trolling is: Remember E. Sn0 -+31337+-'s unprovoked nuke attack on Creationweb? THAT is trolling. Refuting arguments isn't. I'm all for invasions, just don't be a dumbass like E. Sn0 -+31337+-...

I'm with him. We never have Christian fundies come here in large groups and invade (only individuals, except for the WCOTC) and we should act in kind. It's childish and stupid.

It is sort of immature, but so are the fundies themselves. I think invasions are for the most part useless because they're just going ot ban us whenever we make a point. When they foolishly come over here, they odn't have that luxury. The best they can do is run away crying.

Invasion by definition is by all means trollish... good thing we just join in bulk and logically debate faults and we merely coin the word "invasion" without the Weber definition of it...

So you want to educate them the way Europeans civilized Africa and the Americas?

Its one thing to go to a board to debate. Great, free exchange of ideas. But a lot of these types of things (not strictly everyone here, a lot of other boards I have seen) just degrade into bashing people of another opinion. What good is that?

As long as it's polite and civil, then there's no reason why we shouldn't sign up and post to another message board.

Have to agree with ElBlanco here. Don't go another board just to take up a contrary opinion. It becomes nothing more than polite trolling.

Don't go to another board just to post a contrary opinion? What kind of attitude is that? If you have a disagreement with someone, you post it! Trolling is when someone posts a disagreement in an insulting, incendiary manner and refuses to back it up with facts or logic. Stop confusing trolling with debate; the fact that some people consider it incendiary and offensive to simply disagree with them is a criticism of them, not the people who offend them by stating contrary opinions.

Sorry, that came out wrong. I meant just posting a contrary arguement for the sake of arguing, not because you actually disagree with them. There is nothing wrong with posting an arguement if you intend to debate it
