enigma. You said..." I just figured that, since this thread was about a religion, regardless of which one it is, an atheist would not be welcome." First of all this thread is not about religion, it is about A RELIGION, the MUSLIM religion. And just who gave you the moral authority to decide who is welcome here????????????????????????????????????????? Why should an atheist not post here, did it ever occur to you that an atheist may want to know just as I do why muslims would want to kill them.?????????????????????? You said..." I don't need any electronic gizmo to ignore a poster, and have never used it even though I knew it was available. If a person needs such a crutch, they have a larger problem than a poster they don't like.".... What are you talking about??? You ever hear of spam, you ever hear of people who are a pain in the ass. The ignore feature on SI was for this purpose getting rid of pains in the ass...a crutch? get serious...and you might give yourself a vigorous shake. You said...." atheists, like Bill Jackson, and apparently, Darren, cruise the thread looking for such threads so they can pounce on any religious theory in order to spout their hate fueled non-beliefs.".... Message 17110835 As near as I can see an atheist believes differently than you and maybe me. So for you to say..." their hate fueled non-beliefs.".... Is just an INFANTILE and not a very bright thing to say, and I might add that it is not atheist who killed thousands at the WTC, it is not atheist who murdered Mr.Pearl, it is not atheist who kill and torture people every day, it is muslims. And muslim is an organized religion so if you think about it may be understandable why some people may have very strong views about organized religions of any kind. And then you come out with this..." Darren, No one asked you to participate in this thread. If it is a joke, you have the right to laugh in private, but your posts are not welcome here. I, for one, will no longer respond to your vitriolic tirades. Message 17110897 And it was this post from you that caused me to ask if you had been voted in as the thread mommy. To which you replied...." The "thread mommy" bit was cutsey, but a bit infantile. Such a comment should have been left up to Addi, though he would never make the same choice of words, since he is the one that started this thread, not you.".... So now you are deciding what I should say when I post something...geez gim me a break...grow up...well I guess there are fanatics in every religion. There are people on this thread who so far have been kind enough to share their knowledge of islam with us and I hope they will continue to do so. If you are leaving ...Good by,good luck. Lorne
