“This is just another example of what I have been noticing - an uptick in people’s inability to engage in rational, open-minded debate, and an inability to part, even for a nanosecond, from their strongly-held views”.

See this ⬆️ actually sounds like you. Sound like the classic westerner projecting. It is a classic tactic of westerners, almost all their evil politicians, funders, supporters etc, have that narrow minded view of the world. Israel does it, The Nazis did it, Ukraine the US does it etc etc. ‘Projection’ and lies when they haven’t got any good arguments for the so obvious lies they are debating on… Your mate is prob right after your weak return non arguments it looks. Whose views are too strong 🤔?

The religion at its core is dishonest, so it becomes impossible to defend it…. ‘honestly’. Yeah

Lose lose game always. Your friend has prob been told he will be going to hell…….. for his beliefs, so his engagements in these views is understandable

I've flushed out the bullshitters, it seems.

Yeah exactly! If you have done that then that’s fair as you have to argue from a different standpoint than the Bible etc etc

Who are you to tell me what standpoint I can or can't use?

You can use whatever standpoint you want. Most will be easily debated and debunked but if you go with the Cristian Bible you will be in for a hell of a defeat just saying
