Emile, Silicon Investor is a website that is at present (as I understand it) a member sponsored organization that is primarily organized as a place for investors to post messages and discuss stocks and investing. Whether or not I am in the "Coffee Shop" or wherever, I expect to discuss stocks and investing. I am not an agnostic, nor an atheist, however, I feel that that your arguments are missplaced. In other words, I could care less what your religious beliefs are. I sincerely respect your opportunity to express your beliefs, whether or not I share in them, but I don't believe you are spreading them in the proper place, and therefore voted to refund your membership fee, and to prevent you from posting in the future. Since, as T L C has mentioned, we are outvoted, I will refrain from any further objection. I will also refrain from responding to you on this, or any other thread. Have fun, if you can, because I will, Phil

Emile, I don't usually get into an evaluation of persona, but I'll make an exception. Your grasp of reality is tenuous on your good days. You think this has to do with the First Amendment, and/or with any religion that you claim to support. You are hallucinating. You are poofing in the wind about me, but not addressing me. You seem to have no trouble denouncing whomever you wish, for whatever reason you feel is important to you at that moment. Let us see if you can tolerate the reverse. Here is some truth for you. Your perverted and faulty conclusions are based on complex lies. You cannot help but lie. Pronouncing vitriolic judgement against anyone that does not completely agree with your lunacy is the only thing you do with any sort of conviction. You consistently take false or manufactured information and form incorrect conclusions based on your petty need to feel superior to anyone that is not like you. You are in a vast minority. Most of the people on this planet understand the tenets this country was founded on. Most people agree with those tenets. You speak of truth, you would not know truth if it walked up and bit you on your backside. You are allowed to live in this country. That is your right. You are allowed to exist in society. But if you think for one minute that you have the right to intentionally cause anguish or pain, or to use vindictive truculence to pronounce anyone else in the world guilty of not being like you, you are very sadly mistaken. Now, go back to your thread, and leave the rest of us alone.
