Why are insults so acceptable here?
Advertisements [?]
I find it very strange that the majority of posts in this topic forum seem to be telling people of faith how stupid, ignorant and silly they are. Can you imagine the understandable outrage if someone went to the Veteran’s Forum and called them all “baby killers” or went to the GLBT Forum and started a homophobic rant? There would be some pissed off DUers if I went to the Guns Forum and said that all gun owners we just trying to compensate for their small penis or posted sexist jokes in the Women’s Rights Forum. Why is it perfectly acceptable to trash people of faith here?
