this is just to get an idea of what people would like to see more of and like to see less of around here...

ps. when I say religious intolerance, I also mean religious intolerance of athiests and people of less faith.

When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

These are threads originated by non-believers with axes to grind AGAINST a particular religion. I'd prefer that people stop originating these types of threads.
I have nothing wrong with calm discussion, but unfortunatetly its all attack/defend and in those cases, no one is listening.

How many "Christianity is wrong" threads does MacNN need?

I find it INCREDIBLE that "fat barry" has only six votes. I mean, it's not like he's not famous or anything...
