Meh. I was indifferent to him.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Ah fr0d0, I met him on many occasions on this internet. I wasn't pleased with what I saw.

Me too mostly, but he is on here so long!

I'm sad this had to happen, he was one of the first people I can remember being on the forums and he was oftentimes a very nice guy. But i do trust the mods judgement, and I must say that he had it coming. I have a lot of mixed feelings about this.
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

He has gotten a lot less nice recently, bordering on outright offensive. I think something must be going on with him, but I doubt he would have let us know what.

Staff hat is off.
Like Napo, this action has gutted me. I didn't want this, I recused myself from the vote, I wanted an alternative, but I had no effective alternatives to propose.
I don't think the moderator team really had any choice, given the history.
I don't have to be happy about it though, and I'm not.

Can't say I'll miss him one bit. He was annoyingly obtuse once his god-feels were challenged.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
