God: No magic required

[lweisenthal]

Thanks, Chad. I don't have a problem with people (particularly women) wishing to remain anonymous. But I think that people who choose to use pseudonyms should try to comment responsibly when they feel tempted to make personally derogatory statements at the expense of people who sign their own names -- particularly when said real name commentators have themselves been courteous and are "guilty" of nothing more than having a different point of view.

...that's entirely libelous, coming from someone who scribbles Internet graffiti anonymously...Unlike you, Rasetsu, I'm a real person, with a real name, a real family, and a real reputation. You are a coward who hides behind a pseudonym ....

To my knowledge you and I are the only members that use our real names. Like you, I stand behind my opinions. At the same time I recognize that some people have legitimate reasons to preserve their privacy. Some just want to act clever and that's okay too. Raetsu's username used to be Apophenia. (We can only speculate about why she felt she needed to change her name.)For some reason, she believes that anyone who disagrees with her must be a liar and intellectually dishonest. That's what happens to immature little cunts who suck Dennett's cock to find out what they think.

So as you can see vulgarity, ridicule and insult are common on this forum, so you might as well get used to it. You'll learn with whom it is worth talking and who belongs on your ignore list.
