gold einstein was so below my radar, I had no idea who or what this thread was about. So, I had to read half of the posts to get some perspective. I still don't know what all the fuss is about.

@edgarblythe,
Something about man's inhumanity to man or something like that. Mob mentality? Intolerance at best.

You have summed it up quite nicely. "I still don't know what all the fuss is about."

Yes, it is. Intolerance towards my right not to be shoved down the throat with religious stuff.

Stuffing this site, where I usually have a nice time, with quotes from a silly book full of hatred and contradiction, is not really an example of tolerance..

What about stuffing the site with quotes from Mein Kampf?

However, we can discuss the meanings and the content of the quotes, which obviously is not the intent of the original poster..

@Francis,
You can put the person on ignore or just not read the posts. The choice is yours. You prefer to whine rather than take responsibility for what you read or don't read. That is your choice.

I don't see anything being shoved down your's or anybody else's throat. I see you responding to things you seem to to prefer not to even acknowledge. Given your criteria, everything on this site would be forced down somebody's throat. Most people are more mature than that and read only what interests them. Otherwise, they may as well be a stocker or troll.

If you hate religion so much why do you spend time in the religious threads. Other than to cause ****, of course.

@Intrepid,
Your supposed "maturity" only makes me wry sadly.

I do think that this silly religious stuff is one the humankind evils.

Ignoring it is probably leading to more humanity sufferings.

I'm trying to oppose it as to not say afterwards: I didn't know..

As so, I will continue to post as long as this nutcracks will continue to post quotes from the silly book, without other intent than proselytizing.

@djjd62,
I take into account--- if you would place some insight into what the quote means to you or how you think it relates to the subject, it would make the posts more interesting, and give people an insight into your personality as well.--- and next time i explain more my opinion.

@Intrepid,
Intrepid,
it's not that someone comes here to a2k and discusses his religious beliefs.
What gold einstein does is propaganda and he spams with bible excerpts.
There are plenty of religious threads here where people can discuss the pro/con
of religion and they should, why not.

Just registering at a2k for the mere distribution of propaganda is not okay,
regardless of its content.

@CalamityJane,
Jane. Again, nobody has to look at or read it. A2K is a great community and I have learned many things while being here. I read what I want and ignore what I do not want to read. Sometimes I argue with a poster and sometimes I do not. I, personally, have never tried to shove anything down anybody's throat and for the most part I have not felt that I have every got anything shoved down my throat either.

It does, however, seem to me that posts and rebuttals are quite often based on who the poster is and not on what they have to say. i.e. I have posted certain things on certain threads that I have been challenged on. Others come along later and post the same thoughts but they are not challenged and may even get an agreement.

If anybody sees a thread started by gold einstein they have the option not to read it. if they do then they should expect to see what they know they are going to see.

Also, I should point out that others have come here merely for their propaganda but not being of a religious nature. They do not get the same treatment.

What you see as evil some others do not. You are not the deciding factor.

Of course, you have the right to post. I have already agreed with that. Maybe you could share something other than your obvious hate for religion. That would be much more interesting to read. Regardless of one's views.

It's dangerous AND it's obnoxious.

People that replace the logic of everyday's life with quotes from the bible can make the life of others a hell..

Anyway, I think you would have quite a different reaction is this site was stuffed with quotes from the qur'an,
like it is right now with quotes from the bible.

If anyone set forth a quote from anywhere,
including the Koran, The Communist Manifesto or Mein Kampf,
I 'd probably willing to consider the pros and cons thereof,
if the quoted proposition were significantly of interest.

Do we have a rule that posts have to show devotion?

That's the marrow of the question.

Obviously, at least to me, the quotes we talk about presented no interest..

Each day, I post only on a minority of extant threads,
based upon the relative allure of their subject matter,
but I don 't go on the warpath against people whose threads I deem boring.

@OmSigDAVID,
And why do you think I should abide by your example, David?

Is your stance based on some higher moral grounds or has your stance an ultimate legitimacy that my low level of understanding doesn't allow me to discern?

no, what i meant devotion in a religious sense, i have read the bible (hated god, loved jesus), and with the multitude of searchable bible quote websites, any body could look at the subject of a thread or post, and probably find a relevant bible passage, even if the person had no interest in the bible or religion

by embellishing the quote with their own ideas they would at least be showing some devotion

Let me see; how shoud I optimally organize an argument
in favor of restraining mindless atheism-driven hysteria?
(not referring to this post)

Let the record indicate that I have no particular
interest in whether anyone is an atheist or not.

If such notion exists, other than in your mind's wild creations, you tell me, David, my feeble level of understanding doesn't permit me doing so.

As an opulent Mensan, you should achieve such undertaking quite easily..

Perhaps, Francis. I will leave it at this,
unless u choose to pursue the point:
your selective discrimination qua where to inflict
your hysterical rejection of consideration is auto-diagnostic.
Reflect on that or not, as u see fit.


Note that I focus my attention on your emotional efforts at censorship.
I do not choose to involve myself in debates qua the merits of atheism.
