What say ye?
Well, I for one won't have it! What is a forum if not for discussion, beratement, pejoratives, and such, and even real debate. I throw anti religious ideas out there but that doesn't mean I think those duped by religion are idiots. Just duped.

Indeed, but I'd sit and have a beer and a chat with every single poster here. It can get a bit personal sometimes, but never so much that I lose sight of the real perspective - it's just an argument on the internet.

First and last rounds for the entire room are on me, dive. "it's just an argument on the internet." that sometimes matters.

Just to qualify what I said there:
I am not saying "Change all your religious beliefs, they are wrong!"
I am saying that the people who really 'catch hell' on this forum usually do so because they fail to listen to what other people have to say.
