Hello, ya'll. I'm new here. A Christian forum that I frequent provided a link to FSTDT. I thought the title looked familiar and then I saw who the author was: WinAce. He frequented the same site I did. I don't recall if our posts ever crossed. I'm looking forward to exploring these boards for a little insight and entertainment. I find that people of all worldviews have valuable insight to offer on the human condition. I believe this insight ultimately has one source, yet I know not all agree on that source. That's fine. So, the adventure begins.....
BTW, I'm more determined than ever to persuade you guys that I deserve the title of "fundie" as described in the FAQ. ;D
Sorry if I put this in the wrong place.

WinAce? I'm sorry if you don't know this but he passed away many years ago. The site has gone through a lot since then.
Anyway hello there. Show us why you deserve the title of fundie then.

Hey there. Just a heads up, we have the "Preaching and Worshipping" forum if you intend to, y'know, do any preaching.

Hope you brought your fireproof undies, bud. It should be pointed out that most of the forum members are fairly respectful of differing views, so long as the other side is also respectful. Generally speaking, not a bad bunch of folks. however, there are a few of us who don't take kindly to perceived attempts to convert "unbelievers" and will, politely, rip you to shreds using logic (and sometime ad homimen attacks). So have a thick skin and keep your chin up

Yeah, I remember it happening and prior to that, he was expressing his frustration with either the medical care he was receiving or the financing of it. He was rather young.

Hi jlujan69.
Um, just taking a quick gander at the description of the "fundie" as described in the FAQ;
I couldn't see why anyone would want to be accused of "extreme lack of rationality", "fondness of logical fallacies" or "endorsement of psuedoscientific nonsense." Even religious extremists don't believe that they are being irrational, so what does that leave?
Be nice to yourself! I can't see any reason why someone would accuse you of an "extreme lack of rationality."

Welcome from an ex-fundie.

You're tolerant (possibly even accepting) of other people's beliefs. That's a major hurtle to overcome if one wishes to be a fundie.
