Flagg and the others: selective editing by the Christians seems to have taken place, and they obviously don't like us debating and putting our point of view across. Fine, next time either of them invades one of our threads, we could send them to Coventry like they think they've done to us. But then again, we are above that childish sort of crap.

Nope, none of the staff is a member of the religion to my knowledge.

Quatermass: Agnostic
TheMachine1: Atheist
Calandale: Maltheist
krex: Unknown
MrMark:Unknown

Probably just Quater trying to prevent a flame war.

Don't particularly blame him either.

Fair enough. Postie was starting to really get on my nerves. What's with him, anyway?

I'm uncertain on this one. However, I agree with some religious concepts, such as trying to be goodwilled to people in normal circumstances, that sort of thing. Being respectful as much as I can. People shouldn't sh*t on mainstream religious beliefs, they're not exactly crap. Mainstream religion can do a heck of a lot of good, in my opinion.

As humans, we have that ability to believe in something, and aspire to new heights. Does religion not work better than any drug at making people feel better, and without the ill side effects?

Just please, respect people's religious beliefs if they do no harm. Don't stereotype religious people as redneck hicks, or violent fanatics. Because religious people come in all creeds and colours.

Humanity has no hope.

There is free speech in Western countries.

There recently used to be no free speech in Soviet countries.

What is Western society based on? Christianity. What is Soviet society based on? Atheism. Out of all your complaints, the Christian ideology has done the LEAST of the imaginary persecution you atheists claim to experience. You whine about a nutcase criticizing your way of life? Try having a nutcase killing everyone who believes what you do, even stooping to torture. Fred Phelps is evil and deserves death, but Billy Graham? Give me a break, that's pathetic! Has he killed anyone? No, he's just converted thousands of skeptics like you--peacefully, I might add, unlike what the atheists did.

And you can't blame an ideology for evils it's caused in the past. Otherwise, you condemn atheism as well.

I am satisfied--no matter what horrors you devise, God will deliver all justice, set everything in balance. See what an almighty God can do. Perhaps I'll shut myself up a monastery until you gain more power, or just shoot myself, that might be easier.

I once hoped that all Aspies were as kind and good-natured as me--the next stage of evolution, so that God might accomplish His kingdom by altering human nature. But I know now that all variants of humans are inherently the same--wicked, corrupt, and hopeless.

Nothing I say to you will make a difference.

Xenophobia marches on in this technologically-advanced age, but cruelty and barbarity have advanced with it. I found I'm still on the wrong planet, even in the company of other Aspergers. If everyone followed the teachings of Christ, we'd all be in heaven.

There are some good humans. They just need guidance. The mixture of technology and social degeneracy have done a lot to skewer humanity over the years. This species needs to mature a bit more, people need to come to their senses. Only strong, moral leadership will make it happen.

Chuchulain: Bullsh*t it may be, but at least we aren't complaining about what you've said. How about Christians giving us the same courtesy, or is it too much to ask?

There is no courtesy in the PPR, remember?

This is place where people beat the crap outta each other for no good reason but the need to beat something.
