Justin asked why there were more posts here. I said maybe because of a lack of atheist suck posts keeping people away.

I in no way was saying that the current posts were "negative news about religion" and I didn't say that they were "a response to the many 'atheist suck' posts here." THAT is all fabrication on your part. I would appreciate you editing to correct. You can scroll above to see the whole conservation if you somehow think you are correct. Which you aren't.

What's with all the deleted posts? [View all] Lordquinton Mar 2017 OP
Or a fear of intolerance, and its effects? guillaumeb Mar 2017 #1
I don't follow Lordquinton Mar 2017 #11
It must remain a mystery. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #12
Still can't rule out Rapture... Lordquinton Mar 2017 #16
You knew what was in those threads. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #17
So did you Lordquinton Mar 2017 #18
This op was not necessary and violates the rules against meta in this room. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #19
No. Lordquinton Mar 2017 #20
If that is true then you would self delete this now that you got your answer. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #22
No? Lordquinton Mar 2017 #23
Of course you won't self delete this. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #24
I believe that deleting threads is a way of shutting down discussion Lordquinton Mar 2017 #27
If you want to open this group up to meta threads than that is a topic worth discussing. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #28
Keep pushing your meme Lordquinton Mar 2017 #37
It is a shame that games are being played in this room. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #42
There are other ways of shutting down discussion also. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #39
Which is the motive of some in this room. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #44
Well, as you noted, this IS a Meta discussion, and unrelated to the purpose guillaumeb Mar 2017 #45
I used to get so angry when certain poster used to stomp all over my threads hrmjustin Mar 2017 #47
Me too, hrmjustin. littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #52
Based on reccent posting history, I would agree. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #62
Your recent posting? littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #66
There are groups in which religious discussion is protected. Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #72
Ditto. eom littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #76
I have no idea what that means. Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #81
Hahaha littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #83
My apologies. Went right over my head. Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #84
That's ok, sorry to hear about your trouble. littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #86
Death of a Salesman Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #87
Just a general observation on my part. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #77
Now we're talking. ♡ littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #78
Another way to shut down discussion is by pressing the button. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #91
We have deleted posts in this forum all the time. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #2
No we don't. There are 7 on the front page, 6 by a single user. AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #4
What is going on? hrmjustin Mar 2017 #5
Something odd. AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #6
Do tell! hrmjustin Mar 2017 #7
If I knew AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #9
This whole thing is just so amazing. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #10
Agreed. AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #15
Something is going on. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #8
So it's a bad thing that this forum is getting a lot of traffic? Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #25
Any thoughts on why there is an increase of posts in here lately? hrmjustin Mar 2017 #29
Maybe a lack of "atheists suck" posts Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #30
I haven't noticed that but to be honest I rarely engage in those threads. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #31
It's a crazy world. Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #32
Indeed they do. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #33
And there are certainly atheists that are horrible, too. Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #34
We all have our moments. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #35
Do you participate in the religion sucks posts? Lordquinton Mar 2017 #38
I have. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #43
What's interesting about it? Act_of_Reparation Mar 2017 #57
Nice cartoon. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #58
♡ eom littlemissmartypants Mar 2017 #80
Which brings up the obvious response to your claim: guillaumeb Mar 2017 #40
"But the negative original posts about religion and believers seem to far outnumber the positives." Act_of_Reparation Mar 2017 #59
1) A claim was made. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #63
Yes, it is unreasonable. Act_of_Reparation Mar 2017 #67
If anyone makes a claim, they should be more than happy guillaumeb Mar 2017 #68
Now, that's a priggish response. Act_of_Reparation Mar 2017 #69
IS yours an evasive response? guillaumeb Mar 2017 #75
Evasive? I'm flat out refusing you. Act_of_Reparation Mar 2017 #82
Ok, let's apply this evenly Lordquinton Mar 2017 #73
If I state something as fact, what are the consequences? guillaumeb Mar 2017 #90
Well, your first comment was rebutted already Lordquinton Mar 2017 #94
Somehow I missed the rebuttal. guillaumeb Mar 2017 #96
Take that up with the person you were talking with about that issue Lordquinton Mar 2017 #98
That's not what I said Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #74
What you said: guillaumeb Mar 2017 #92
Your claim: "suggested that these negative posts might be a response to the many 'atheists suck'" Goblinmonger Mar 2017 #93
The "horrors of atheism"? guillaumeb Mar 2017 #97

There was one not too long ago Lordquinton Mar 2017 #95
Are you kidding? beam me up scottie Mar 2017 #99
Atheist groups are also very cautious Lordquinton Mar 2017 #100
Good point. I run into anti-atheist sentiment often here in the bible belt. beam me up scottie Mar 2017 #101
Didn't you know? The cold water they splash on you to wake you up Lordquinton Mar 2017 #103

Accidental performance art? Lordquinton Mar 2017 #70
You can ask her. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #71
There is so much unintended irony here. :) (nt) bekkilyn Mar 2017 #79
That maybe true but my point still stands. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #85
Her OP's haven't been hidden Lordquinton Mar 2017 #88
Whatever! I didn't alert, or ask anyone to alert. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #89
When has that ever happened? AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #105
I don't keep a list of my interactions with every poster. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #106
No need in either case. AtheistCrusader Mar 2017 #107
Of course. hrmjustin Mar 2017 #108
