By the way I'm wondering why you're pretending to he some kind of defender for free speech when the very first commandment of your god is,"thou shalt have no other gods before me", which is a blasphemy law that you would defend to the death.

Link was sent on a hiatus. Which is the second time in some 6 or more years, counting his membership in TTA. Many of us know him well, as well as you can know a fellow poster, and we know what happens when he goes off the rails and stops his meds. Posting here agitates him and sends him on a bad spin. You are completely new here and know few of us, and you don't know our rules, but you sit in judgement instantly. Your preconceptions must come from watching how things are done on some other forums. I suggest you wait until you get to know the community before starting to pass judgement.

I seem to have a vague memory of this Lion character being banned and then coming back under a blatantly similar nick but I may be confusing this part with someone else.

FYI I think you'll find as you have negative (-1) reputation points that you're unable to rep anyone, you need to have positive rep to award reps yourself.(05-17-2021, 06:31 PM)adey67 Wrote: ...the fact that you're still here is absolute proof that we have a far greater respect for free speech thought and contest of ideas than you or any of your contemporaries will ever have. Edit: I notice your rep is now up to neutral rather than negative so you may possibly be able to give rep now (but don't take my word for it I could be wrong) either way don't bother because I didn't say what you think I said.

And those are the two people Lion picked to defend. Makes Lion look trollish, especially if he knew those people from before. But I am not ready to see him as that sort of troll, I think he may just have a chip on his shoulder regarding bannings on forums. We'll see.

To the best of my (admittedly not that detailed) recollection he was just your garden-variety religionist who wanted to preach at us (and pick the occasional pointless argument). Must have been a bit more irritating than most for me to have remembered him but that's about it.

Personally I just think it's as simple as Lion thinking atheists are the most evil people in the world, so we must necessarily be up to no good whenever a theist gets banned. I know from experience that he's that bigoted.

I'm starting to have un charitable thoughts like perhaps we need a purge.
