Well, at any point someone could start a philosophical discussion or debate about:
whether Hell is eternal
whether torture for eternity is fair for 80 years or less of life
whether God is compassionate and forgiving
whether God is malicious
or…
They could just dismiss it as ignorant, post no elaboration on what they specifically mean,
and not realize that Showerthoughts are meant to be humorous and not taken so seriously
that you get your panties all wedged up in your crack so that you can’t take a joke anymore. ;D
Yes you can! I am sorry if your critical thinking skills are so limited you cannot understand that.

You’re either being serious or you’re not. You can’t change your intent based on the response.
And FYI, critical thinking is exactly what enables me to see through this, taking me from “maybe this guy’s just clueless” to “nah just a troll”.
1 - Read and understand “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift

Most of the times opinions are neither right or wrong, they are just opinions. However, in this case your opinion is wrong!
Also, when someone simply disagrees with you that is not “gaslighting”.
