Thanks for posting this here. cbayer Aug 2014 #1

Not so long ago, you castigated me in the Religion forum for suggesting people who objected AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #2

This really does seem to be a popular occupation these days el_bryanto Aug 2014 #3

I kept that post within spec for the group topics, and civil. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #4

So do you feel like in the religion forum you and your fellow atheists el_bryanto Aug 2014 #5

That was not my suggestion. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #6

I'm obviously not going to religion to read what you originally said el_bryanto Aug 2014 #7

I could understand that if it was a mild divergence. This case is an entire role reversal. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #11

I can't speak for Cbayer el_bryanto Aug 2014 #16

I believe it is the ineffective choice, and I cite the delta between church doctrine, and individual AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #20

I think given the tone of the religion forum, particularly in regards to the Catholic Church el_bryanto Aug 2014 #23

I try very hard to separate my condemnation of the church doctrine, from the actual people who AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #27

AC, when I posted in Religion okasha Aug 2014 #8

I responded to that post only because it is directly relevant to a previous discussion. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #9

He's talking to another poster Goblinmonger Aug 2014 #10

My attitude is that if we let you and other atheists like you into this forum el_bryanto Aug 2014 #12

I hope I've made it clear that I am not here to start a fight by way of tone or content. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #13

It looks like that's happening. Union Scribe Aug 2014 #17

We'll see - maybe they are just bored and will give up after a while. nt el_bryanto Aug 2014 #18

Why are you following me here? cbayer Aug 2014 #14

I didn't tell them they SHOULD leave. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #15

I've had enough of this! kentauros Aug 2014 #19

I am addressing El Bryanto's honest questions only, and then will leave peacefully. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #21

So you are saying you will block people Goblinmonger Aug 2014 #22

Let's just leave it be. There is no way to resolve this. AtheistCrusader Aug 2014 #24

Ignore the entirety of my posts at your own peril. kentauros Aug 2014 #25

Go ahead and block me Goblinmonger Aug 2014 #28

The basis of this forum is mutual respect across various belief systems. el_bryanto Aug 2014 #29

That's at least twice you've said you're leaving Union Scribe Aug 2014 #30

We are not welcoming to people who come to disrupt. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #33

For the record I have blocked Goblinmonger for his disruptions. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #34

You do understand that a pointed challenge was made in the post in the religion forum Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #35

I'm just curious why that response to me did not result in the poster being blocked from this group. Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #41

please provide me that link in a pm. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #44

It is 2 posts up "message hidden by jury decision". Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #48

Thank you. I just found the link. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #49

Imagine that. It was only 4-3. rug Aug 2014 #54

That was not a "pointed challenge", Warren. okasha Aug 2014 #47

The op derailed it herself. Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #50

Ok thank you for your words here but the meta needs to stop now. thanks. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #51

Are you calling this group a "clubhouse"? rug Aug 2014 #55

My cousin, now deceased, was a member of a Unitarian Universalist church. MADem Aug 2014 #26

I would say about half of my GLBT friends and family members are members cbayer Aug 2014 #31

A few months ago, I attended a Catholic funeral Mass okasha Aug 2014 #52

That is a wonderful story and I am certain that it is repeated all over. cbayer Aug 2014 #53

Francis has always been one of my heroes. okasha Aug 2014 #58

He is so loved here in Italy. cbayer Aug 2014 #60

UU is what, 0.1% of christians? Even that much? Most of the UUs I know are atheists. Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #36

Well, the survey said "religious," not Christian. And UU is a religion, it gets the tax exemption MADem Aug 2014 #38

The point being that UU is completely unrepresentative. Warren Stupidity Aug 2014 #42

Well, it is what it is. And it does work for what it is. MADem Aug 2014 #43

Actually, UU is representative of many different religions, including nonChristians. rug Aug 2014 #57

Actually AlbertCat Aug 2014 #59

Do your own homework. rug Aug 2014 #56

I'm pretty sure that Warren is essentially correct. eomer Aug 2014 #65

What do you think about the hostility? rug Aug 2014 #66

Yes, it's absolutely inconsistent with UU principles and our congregation's welcoming policy. eomer Aug 2014 #67

I am a member of a UU church and... TreasonousBastard Aug 2014 #61

It's a start--I really do think that without inclusion, many churches are dooming themselves. MADem Aug 2014 #64

I am getting sick and tired of these disruptions. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #32

I have all of the offenders on Ignore. TM99 Aug 2014 #39

We had to ban 2 in the past week and I think they went to far. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #45

Hopefully it will settle down soon enough. nt MADem Aug 2014 #40

I doubt it but we shall see. hrmjustin Aug 2014 #46

I would hope so too, but... TreasonousBastard Aug 2014 #62
