So, I assume you speak for the owners of the forum? And you say it's primary purpose is not to debate and discuss? Then what is it? Hey, I've been to lots of Christian forums where all they want to do is post JPEGs of flowers and paintings of Jesus with a lamb on his lap and write little banal notes of tired encouragement. They have a handful of members and it's just for them. Is that what this forum is? Just a little myspace for atheist freshman and teens?
Fine. Just say so. Don't make forums called "Discussion" and then say you don't want discussion.

Reality is a prison - seperating us from what? reality is everything that is real.
reality is an illusion - no, your perception of reality can be flawed but, everything is what it is, and it is not what it is not.
evil is caused by ignorance - Then your definine a global trancendant evil? then what defines it. Evil is subjective, get used to it.
It really sounds to me like this whole 'philosophy' came from an anime plotline. It's almost exactly the kind of thinking I used to do when I had just finished watching Saturday morning cartoons and fancied myself a samurai warrior from feudal Japan.
If I'm wrong, feel free to show me but, don't even try to challenge me based on my interpretation of a few lines of text.
I wouldn't think of challenging you...really.
