Was born and raised as a Jehovah's Witness for the last 17 years. I always enjoyed meeting people who would try to debate because we're taught to get them to STFU without actually getting involved in the time wasting debate.
The nub JW's always break down and get involved, though. Can't help themselves.

I feel the same way. Because I'm no longer a JW, other JW's try to argue why my reasons for leaving the organization are wrong, brings much lulz.
What subjects do you usually debate about?

Umm, really whatever gets thrown my way. Of course if someone is to become judgemental. I always pull the judgment card.
But i can say its most of the time differences in how god and people who act like god.
For instance. I once debated on facebook with a pastor about a year back, on one of Jim Morrisons quotes... something about fear. The pastor said that with "god" all things are possible, like getting over fears and such. And i simply stated the fact that if you have the ability to fight your fears you do not need an entity to tell you that you can. Because you simply can. But it eventually came down to it she and other christians were judging what he did, i.e. drugs. So i pulled that card.
Its funny how they all shut up after that. I practically call it a finisher. Haha.

Atheists are usually just as stupid as Christians. I'd rather talk to a reasonable Christian, than to one of those childish, confrontational atheists who think they are the bee's knees because they somehow ended up not believing in God.
