Nice. I'm a "folks like him..." I'm an atheist. Actually, no atheists or agnostics were invited. That is a fact. Will they be invited in the future? We shall see.

Those of us without any religious beliefs are ignored by those who have such beliefs. That is a mistake.

It's probably good that you will be ignoring someone. Nice of you to call him names as you do, too. I'm sure the poster reads just fine, as do I. I can read what you wrote without any problem. It's not a pretty thing to read, frankly.

You're welcome to write us off, but it's really not a good idea.
