I’m sure there are other groups that do it too, but I’ve noticed it most often
from christian apologists, probably in part case I like listening to
debates/discussions with them from atheist youtubers, but I’ve also noticed it
talking to christians myself. It always feels super weird to me, but that’s also
coming from someone who feels weird with eye contact and saying other peoples
names, so maybe it’s just me. Has anybody else noticed it, or are there other
people you’ve noticed that do that? Does it seem weird to you?
yup, a cheap trick right out of ‘how to win friends and influence people’ or ‘how to start a cult’ (actual book).
