It could fit there too, actually in my "reason" message I noted that it could fit there too but put it in Philosophy anyway.
Why are atheists like cypress so invested in monotheism?

It means you're always pushing it, and also presenting yourself as an authority on how to interpret every facet of the religion, that you don't believe in in any way.
Cypress is a religious zealot. I have no idea why he is obsessed with pretending to be agnostic.

fully immersed in faith..
technically, I think Cy is gnostic........he believes everything......
I'm not responsible for your resentment that you are not particularly well read on world religions,
I am not required to apologize for having read extensively on world religions,
and I am entitled to correct erroneous information. Like correcting the idiot who claimed Baptists are not Protestants, or the correcting posters who claim that nobody wrote or reported anything about Jesus until seven decades after he was executed.
If you want to talk about something I am a dumb ass about, start a thread about the stock market.
Look, I really don't care what you believe.
Tens of millions of agnostics and atheists have read the Taoist, Buddhist, Hindu, and Confucian classics without ever having felt a need to declare allegiance to any particular religion. Some of them were famous physicists and authors. Evidently the MAGA morons on this forum have never heard of Henry David Thoreau.

shut up, stupid mason.
you're always trying to play gatekeeper about how to interpret religions.
you say christianity is about heaven and the Pope, but you're not a Christian.
when an actual christian says its about the golden rule you flip out and act like a fool for several pages.
you're a mason on a mission to keep religion violent and divisive.
you suck at thinking and are very stupid and actually quite evil.

ok religion expert. where does the Bible say good christians should support Israel with their blood and treasure?
or is that extra-bibilical?
or does nobody think that?
You've don't attend church, and don't participate in any religious community. Logging onto an obscure message board and babbling about the golden rule doesn't make you a Christian.
Yeah, that sounds just like me.
You know there actually IS a thread of thought that Baptists are not, technically speaking, Protestants since they didn't split out of the Catholic Church.
Sure most people consider them Protestants on the overall religious grounds but apparently there are some who feel it inappropriate. (Look it up for yourself if you doubt).
(Just sayin' that whoever you "corrected" may not have been wrong, per se.)
Don't sell yourself short.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, but if you look further you will see that this is not an uncommon thought among Baptists.

Who cares what poorly educated lay Baptists believe. Many lay Baptists don't even believe Catholics are Christians.
Just because some rubes believe it doesn't make it true.
Splitting directly off from the Catholic Church is not the definition of a Protestant. Many Protestant denominations didn't form until hundreds of years after Reformation. Protestants are defined by a set of beliefs, like sola fide and sola scruptura.

I have accepted him as my saviour.You've don't attend church, and don't participate in any religious community. Logging onto an obscure message board and babbling about the golden rule doesn't make you a Christian.
Yeah, that sounds just like me.
you don't define who is a Christian.
see, you're still fucking presuming authority for some unfounded reason.
now run along and go fuck yourself.
You're supposed to be baptized, and participate in fellowship and community.
Just sitting in your basement, claiming you are saved, and complaining about Jews and blacks doesn't sound like the signs you've been given grace.

You don't seem to understand what the word means, Atheists aren't invested in theism at all.
