In response to "it was factually horseshit. "evolve beyond belief" is plainly antagonistic on its face. -- nm" by TFox

Why is that any more antogonistic than "Christ is the ONLY way" or some such?

which, while I don't subscribe to, don't consider antagonistic. One implies a singularity of belief system while the other explicitly states sigularity of belief. How can the explicit statement be more antagonistic than the implied?

Responses:

One is expressing a personally held belief, the other is expressing that someone elses personally held belief makes them un-evolved i.e. stupid - Stephen Sep 9, 10:36
its not. they are both antagonistic to some degree. one could argue whether they are *intended* to be so... - TFox Sep 9, 10:23 4
- So, it's arguable, and not "factually horsesh**", eh? I completely disagree with your 100% number in the IM. - musubi Sep 9, 10:26 3
  - the intent is arguable. the douchiness, decidedly not. -- nm - TFox Sep 9, 10:27 2
    - Really? You consider a Christian who politely tells me that Christ is the only path to salvation is being a douche? (nm) - musubi Sep 9, 10:29 1
      - I would describe it as being overbearing, and it would make me uncomfortable. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 10:31
I consider them to be equally overbearing. That's my opinion. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 10:22
