was enough to get you blocked. And what you did falls into the realm of being an ass. It's like the old geometry thing: all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.

They can't exclude one group and allow just one viewpoint. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #1
Maybe there should be an atheist memorial in Woonsocket. rug Apr 2012 #2
Well, that's kind of silly. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #3
Extremely. rug Apr 2012 #4

Sorry, I didn't know this was a private discussion Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #32
No, those take place elsewhere. rug Apr 2012 #33
Oh, yes, I'm sorry. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #36
Is that your standard for blocking from a group, being an ass? rug Apr 2012 #38

It is a message on public property. Of course the forum standard applies. rug Apr 2012 #20

The prayer is on the website for the firefighters. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #26
It is and existed long before the Woonsocket firefighters rug Apr 2012 #30
So a memorial for Woonsocket firefighters that died Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #35
The prayer, on the memorial, did, long before. rug Apr 2012 #41
Well the concept of the Abrahamic god existed for thousands of years Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #43
