When someone says X, I know it is time to stop the discussion.?

Question

X=?

(in terms of religion and spirituality debates/conversations)

Answer 1

"You just have to have faith."

"You're going to hell!"

"At least I'm not going to hell!"

"If you reply to me again, I'll report you."

Answer 2

Truly? Because I see that people think that they have to carry on conversations until the cows come home about religion when all they do is come here and talk about it more.

This is the truth: Most people think they were born experts on religion. Especially those who have nothing good to say about it. Now I have a few bad things to say about it too. The thing that I have an advantage on is that I realize that the word 'religion' has more than one meaning.

So when people say that they have all the answers, that's when I stop the conversation. And when people say, "Why don't you Cri$tian$ tell me all about that fairy tale you believe in", I don't have any reason to talk to them.

Answer 3

X="Personally, I don't respect your opinion, if your opinion includes, as its premise, God exists. Your religion is hogwash and all the other religions of the world agree with me."

...said to me earlier today. Funny thing is, the context was me saying I don't know why Christians on this site have such a persecution complex because I find that if I treat atheists with respect, they reciprocate with the same. Guess there's always a few bad apples.

Anyway, that's a discussion stopper because I know no matter what I say, my thoughts and opinions will be invalid to him because of my religion. There's really no point in trying to argue with someone like that.

Answer 4

When someone says "Whatever, you're going to Hell", I know it's time to end the discussion.

X="Whatever, you're going to Hell."

The "Whatever" part is common and insinuates that no matter what I say, my opinion will not be heard or considered and the other party already has a predetermined notion (that I am going to Hell).

Answer 6

x = "Well, the bible says..."

I had a chat with my soon to be mother in law and we were talking about Will & Grace. She said "Well, the bible says that gayness (her word) is a sin, and I think that if the gay wants to not be gay anymore, and they pray, God will take the gayness away."

I had to come up with an excuse to bolt as fast as I could. I wasn't sure whether to slap the stupid out of her or laugh at her.

Answer 7

i don't have to wait for an 'x' all I have to do is see the size of the crosss thy're wearing and I hightail it out of there. The bigger the cross the scarier, meaner, and more filled with craziness they are.

Answer 8

You know you believe, you're just denying it, honey. You just need to open your heart to Jesus. (Or something like that.)

I loathe, detest, despise, deplore, hate and abhor condescension and patronization, especially the sweet syrupy caring kind. It makes my frikkin' blood boil!!!

Answer 9

Any time the topic of theology, in person, it is time to halt the conversation.

Answer 10

anything in the line of "I'm better (smarter, safer, saner, more logical etc) than you because of what I believe, and because you don't follow by my rules, you're ignorant, (or some bad name)." or, "going to hell."

both christians and atheists can be like this big time. I don't like it.

Answer 11

"You're lost".
I mean actually its hard to pick just one. That's one of them though. My doctor says I should stay away from theologians. They make my blood pressure rise
