Who's trying to silence you? We're having a discussion about this in the open forum. Nobody has tried to censor you, we're just disagreeing with you. How do you even get the idea that we're trying to silence you when multiple times you've been asked for additional details about what you're claiming?
What kind of censorship begins and ends with the "censors" asking you to do more of the thing we're apparently trying to censor?
You all getting excited and spamming the thread like world war 3 just broke out. We learn. We move on. We accept that we're not perfect and try to improve.
You seem to be saying you're perfect and above criticism.
It is up to me, and you Brian. It's our board as we participate in it. Tiberius grants us that right. I personally have had the privilege of contributing and suggesting improvements. I am a full member just as much as any other.
I like a lot of people here too. I wouldn't be here if I didn't.
If I didn't want my views challenged I wouldn't be on an atheist forum for my kicks now would I? I have a very "atheist" Christian perspective different to other Christians. I'm happy about that. It's where I want to be.
I liked Tibs' ethos in setting this forum up to welcome theists and foster interaction. For an atheist forum I think it's done better than any to my knowledge.
