Sorry, but you're just trolling wololo here. You've posted previously that you're not a fan of his, and that you had him on ignore. (But maybe you've taken him off ignore since then.)

No, I've never had him on ignore. His posts amuse me.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

If it's open it encourages participation, much like the Mafia forum (hint: try mafia).

Saints are no more real than your prophets or djinns.  In fact, the "saints" who actually existed tended to be real scumbags.

How do you see it as a private club?

There is the general forum.... and then there is all of a sudden the country club area which has special rules for membership.  Seems very republicunt to me.  I'm sure you approve.

Did you perhaps mean participation, rather than partition? (Although I can see a good case being made for either.)

A “courtry club”? You applied for membership here, and we are under the special rules of the forum. A subsection with other rules like the debate area is not unreasonable.

And it should be blacked out as the OP suggests so that the rest of us don't have to be subjected to your jesus wank-fest.

I’m sorry that you are so opposed to civil and rational discussion.
