You're welcome here, but if you don't like the climate, there are plenty of more tightly-moderated forums out there where you can have these discussions. Maybe the religion and philosophy section of JREF would suit you better. Not trying to get rid of you (in fact, I hope you stay), but if you don't like it here, there are alternatives.You don't need "tight moderation" you need an online community of people who revere discussions with people of opposing views. It's not a simple case of "i'm right and you're wrong" but rather "I don't want to listen lalala" which I don't so much care for. You seem to forget something - if I were to suddenly switch to atheism it wouldn't change my views, my values, my beliefs. So don't for a second think that belief God changes whether or not a person has the same capacity to be passionate for their community, for politics, for justice and what is right or passionate for many other things.
