And it's one of the reasons I put that bigoted asshole on ignore.

What disappoints me even more than the failure of the jury in this case is the complete failure of DU's allegedly tolerant, liberal theists to confront that jerkwad - EVER.

I can read from that only one thing: they agree with what he says.

Take a break like I did. Then come back and make better use of your Ignore list.

I knew I felt something weird in my chakras EvolveOrConvolve Apr 2012 #37

You mean atheists get mind-melding powers, too?!? Rob H. Apr 2012 #38

Excellent question. I've been wondering that for quite a while. Starboard Tack Apr 2012 #17

I was not going to reply at first Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #18

I missed that - the downside of Ignore. mr blur Apr 2012 #5

DU is generally a bit more tolerant of atheists than the US as a whole. laconicsax Apr 2012 #6

Now I'm even more confused. trotsky Apr 2012 #81
