<<my last interaction with an anti-semitic Christian was quite overt. >> ...I suspect that the reason why you didn't get much response was that you were posting on a stock thread. 1) Bashing Gates on the MS thread may not be winning you any friends. 2) Many people will avoid controversial off-topics simply because it messes up the thread (as per this "AMAT" thread. ...Which is why I suggested posting on a Christian thread - to get a Christian reaction from a Christian forum. And yes, not only is the idea itself kind of funny, but you may find some of the responses you get hillarious (I hope). ...But, if my hunch is right, you may also find out that that hate-mongers (anti-Semite et. al.) get a lot of hate directed back at them. Sadly - I suspect that this return hate is part of what powers up their hate drive. BTW - I'm curious - could you point me to that exchange? Also - did you report the abuse? Was there action taken?
