If believers are not allowed or if they get banned immediately, then, I think the number of atheists coming to the forum will also go down. Why? Because there's going to be less debates and the forum would be less interesting. So, I like the forum the way it is. Tolerance of religion is a good thing. And I think the rules are fair enough for an atheist forum. Only the really stupid ones will be disqualified from the forum while the intelligent and compliant ones are welcome to stay as they wish because they follow the rules.

AtheistForums.org has become quite an unpleasant place lately and I think I need to step away before I begin posting things that I regret.
Try to be a little more patient, Paul. I know it's hard for you but it's better for you to get used to these kind of things. Don't let these online conversations make you feel bad. Sooner or later, the trolls and abusive members alike will get banned anyways. They don't last for too long. Sometimes they might even leave by themselves after being disappointed at their own defeat.
I'm a theist but I hope I didn't contribute to your irritation as of late. More importantly, I hope to see you come back very soon.
