In reply to the discussion: Wow! Religious privilege runs strong in GD. [View all]beam me up scottie
(57,349 posts)33. I was blocked? When? What the hell are you talking about?
I've only gone into interfaith once and that was to explain to an atheist that they were in the wrong place. Do a search.
I do have a problem with some of the things done in other groups.
I respect your group, I don't follow anyone in there, I don't alert and I don't troll.
As far as scurrilous attacks on individuals here, or even on ideas proposed, I'm not aware of that being a big problem. If it is, you might alert or contact the hosts about specific problems. We don't actually like insults over there, even if it's our own people starting it.
None of the threads I looked at were recent and I'm not interested in dredging up old feuds. If you stay out of my business I'll stay out of yours.
I even agree with you guys most of the time.
Is that really true? Then what is this all about? If you have a problem with me you might want to follow your own advice and alert the hosts, but afaik I didn't violate any rules.

There's an ongoing form of hostility between a couple well-defined camps, yes.

I find any aggressive promotion of religious, or nonreligious, belief offensive.

Yeah, but I hear that the UberHost over there will ban *anybody*, just for existing.

This thread certainly turned into a perfect example of proving its own point.
