Another reason why I really don't continue on with my debate here is, it obviously upsets some people and I don't want to invade their privacy.
There's no expectation of privacy at a public debate board. People from both sides are here because they
*want* to engage the other side in debate - that's the opposite of a desire for privacy.
You're not offending anybody's sensibilities by debating here. In fact, the opposite is true. When the mice stay home the cats have no fun, so to speak.
But let me tell you some of your atheists something.
Well let me tell you non-atheists something - I'm a non-atheist, too. So when you say:
Be prepared to rethink your belief systems.
How about you rethinking your own belief system that requires those who disagree with you to be atheists? Might it possibly be just as mistaken as your belief system that requires science and religion to be in conflict?
I know things you don't know about.
Maybe. And by running away you insure that you'll be able to continue believing that the things you think you know are actually true.
