Long time no see and welcome back. Nothing personal. I tried to word everything in an "often/pattern" way rather than an "aways/rule" sort of way. Really didn't want to offend any anyone here. My wife's an ex-smoker and I'm an ex-xtian.

This was my effort to argue against mistreating even the most respectful of theists on this site for what seem like nutsy reasons to me. I've always said that getting to vent is one of the functions of a site like this. But I object when it gets personal and theist has been nothing but respectful. Most of the action was on this thread which I believe has been closed:

http://atheistforums.org/thread-34779-page-6.html

This thread was mostly for reflecting on that one and making peace.
