Thena, I meant no insult or condescension with this thread. I was curious about an observation I made (that a couple others have also said they noticed/are curious about) and opened up a thread because I was bored. Nothing more, nothing less, and you are honestly putting way too much thought into this.
If you dont think it's anyone's business and dont want to participate on the poll, thats fair enough - dont. Its a personal question and the invitation to answer is just that - an invotation. No one is forcing you.
I see that you, again on this post, say that i have "multiple times" supposedly made threads/posts where a draw parallels between atheism and "behaviors I find immoral." I asked you already to please show me where I've done that, and you didnt. You just came back on here and accused me of it again without providing examples to back up your claim about me.
Anyway, I can't sit here and tell you that you're wrong about my intentions for this thread. You've already made up your mind what my intention is (despite me telling you it isnt) and are trying to convince others of it. Clearly you will continue to think what you want to think.
Person A: Your intention is to insult us!
Peraon B: No, actually I mean no insult at all...
Person A: Yes you do!!!!
Person B: Ok then.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
