Artur's banning is just a reminder to me that my presence or any theist who is argumentative is not welcome. We are merely tolerated and while other people can be complete dicks and assholes to us, We need to hold back if we are to continue to have a voice here.
Artur...if you reading this, here is some advice....when you realize you are typing an insult....look for the backspace button....You'll save yourself a lot of grief.
Stupid ass posts like these is why you get called names. It was obvious to everyone except you, that Artur was a troll. He ignored some people completely and would not respond to some posts even after being prompted 4 or 5 times. At no point during his short stay here can the conversations we have had with him be called a 'discussion' or 'debate'. He would throw wild assertions around and refuse to provide evidence for them. His insults (though incredibly ignorant and disgusting) had very little to do with his temporary ban.
What a coincidence that the only person who does not recognize his trolling, is another Christian. It's almost like the two are linked somehow.
