Do we? Do we treat them with ongoing kindness and respect? Do people have a midnight vigil to grieve their sadness when they get poopie-pants because someone didn't shower them with rainbows and puppy dogs?
For the tiny bit of flack CL took for HER bullshit, the guys like Harris and a couple others take 1000x more. Where's THEIR support group?
First of all, let go of your hate towards CL. It's obvious that anyone reading this can see it. Second of all, CL does not do one tenth the amount of shit that the "others" you are referring to, do. In case it hasn't dawned on you, CL rarely engages posts like this one here. You will be hard pressed to find her preaching to anyone on these forums. You will be hard pressed to find her pushing her beliefs on anyone here. Unlike those "others", CL does not do any of that. She doesn't tell people they will go to hell if they don't believe in her god. She has more class and respect towards this forum than any other theist I've seen.
Unlike "others" that you've mentioned, you will not find her on every single religious thread doing the sort of word salad bullshit that we have to deal with by those "others".
Why this can't be put to rest is beyond me. It would seem that some people just like to argue for the sake of arguing. Perhaps it's time to start picking your battles carefully. No one is ever required to show up to every argument they are invited to. Learn from it and grow up.
