Now...Hope this isn't a derail, but...what if Jesus HIMSELF begins to post here? You are aware, his followers have told us this might happen. Does HE get a pass on the proselytizing? If he damns some of us, are the moderators going to ban him? If the moderators then get damned, are we going to have their back? I like to think I stand for free expression, but there was that damn fig tree that pissed off Jesus... Christians, can you give us any pointers on this? Forewarned is forearmed.
Would that be proselytizing, though?
Why would it NOT be proselytizing? Unless he was using the Socratic method?
If it was the version of Jesus who had flown off into heaven and no earthly body remained, would it be even possible to commit an ad hominem (criticizing the person rather than the argument...but since he is not a person...???) fallacy against him? I think the admins and mods here would have to allow for some latitude and bending of the rules then.
