RE: Mods.. please cry like a baby here

I've never read the rules here or any other forum I've joined. They are basically a guide line to common sense, and I suppose I have a little of that. The only time I've ever gotten a warning was at gaming sites, one for mentioning the word "emulator" and another during a flame war over Final Fantasy 6 VS Final Fantasy 7...FF dorks can be as bad as theists VS atheists.
The Necro rule here is odd and so is the posting of videos, but seeing as I seldom post videos it has not been an issue. There will always be a fair amount of stupidity flying around, and I doubt that will ever change.

Isn't this thread calling out, in the full definition I mean?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Does that mean you can finally ban this jackass now?
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Atheists would probably interpret that as "get out your club and start bashing theists" though. You know what Neanderthals they are.
Quit your whining. If you don't like it here, you know where the door is.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Who is whining afterall? The mods or the OP?
Mods don't cry, they warn, (...), warn, then ban. There is a limit for everything.

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Mods here have a battle cry.
And then they wield the banhammer.
