Hey this is just a comment but i have read several posts saying things like 'crack smoker' and other things with God or Jesus in the comment. Does everyone this this is necessary. It makes portions of the debate uncivilized!

Hi, Juber3,

I quite agree that it's silly and disrespectful. At the same time, I also have to remember that there are a lot of people out there who may be angry at the church (and take their anger out on God), or even angry at God/the Gods. While posts like the one you site may not be the best way of dealing with htat anger, perhaps it is the only way they have to deal with it at this time?

I'm lenient on what people can say, as long as the rules are abided by. If someone does make an outrageous statement (like Jesus was high on marijuana), I won't mind, as long as it's supportable by some logic.

Also, I don't mind if people who are angry at God posts at this forum. Actually, I welcome it. And I don't want to censor them too much. Though of course there is a limit.

I want this to be an open forum where people can feel free to participate and inquire and discuss. I do not want a forum where everybody acts and thinks the same. This might mean that some might post childish comments. But, again, as long as the rules are abided by, it's not a problem. People can readily discern what posts are inane and I will leave it up to the readers to decide.
