I use Google+ a bit, and there are several professed Christians who troll many atheist posts as a pack. They are antagonists. I simply act as if they don't exist now. How do you react or deal with trolling bullies of this I'll?

You can block them, report them, etc.

I block people at will. They don’t necessarily have to be trolls for me to block. For me, this is a community of people that I enjoy hanging out with. If someone comes in the room and, after a spell, I find that I don’t enjoy listening to them or talking to them, I leave the room by blocking them. Works for me.

Unfortunately, I fight back.. If you’re comfortable and knowledgeable, you can both cut em down & shut em down. But … it can get ugly.. And do you want your ‘friends’ to see that side of you..? Those roving packs have no friends, or a life for that matter, they’re just terminal misfits jealous of those willing to acknowledge their deepest fears.

I’ll ‘like’ posts from American Atheists for example - and am consistently impressed by the multitude and quality of the comments on their posts! In my mind, I think ‘take that,’ and let the meme/ message do it’s thing.. Speaking up once in awhile often has a stronger impact than constantly, as you’ll maintain both the tolerance and respect of your friends ~

I ignore them. I also block them if I feel it's necessary, but most of them are sock puppets and will register another account.

Quite right, turn the other cheek.

Let's just assume I am a BAD person.
I don't argue with children, because I don't have to, I am the adult, they are children, there is no argument.
Same with these trolls, I won't waste my time debating, they are unable to reason. If they persist and piss me off enough, I'll pray to the god of the internet to bring down a plague on them. There is a difference between a god and a systems controller. A systems controller doesn't walk around all day wishing he was a god. Obtuse comment I know, but I had fun years ago with people trying to hack my networks. Like my premises, the dificulty is less one of getting in, more of one getting out. Did I say I am a BAD person?

I now am a former Christian, and I find it hard to explian why to other Christians. I've been reading articles on the true orgin of the Christian faith, and i wish other Christians just knew what they are truely worshiping.

I find anecdotally that most self identified Christians don't actually study the bible they claim to follow. I point out exodus 21 which sanctions slavery, Paul's letters which tell women to shut up and be subservient to men, psalms 137:9 which says be happy when you are killing your enemies babies, etc.
