Saluting all the good and great theists we have had on this site.

Saluting all the good and great theists we have had on this site.
Here is to Catholic_Lady and Kingy.  What was his actual user name?  You know, the guy with the sweet wife, daughters and horses?

Ultimately it seems they all move on and then there are periods of time when we have nothing but goobers.  It is good to remember that it is possible to believe religious stuff and still be outstanding human beings or at least a hell of a lot of fun.  I'm going to go ahead and give a shout out to the Fr0d0 and ChadWooters.  I saw eye to eye on lots of things with FrOds.  As for Chad, how can you not love a guy with the self knowledge to describe himself as a pompous ass?

What theists have found a place close to your heart over the years?  Could be someone online but it could also be someone in real life or a celebrity.  While being atheists is just fine, as we all know well enough, it is important to remember that we don't have an exclusive on that.

Sadly, nothing has been heard from him for quite some time.

fr0d0 always meant a lot to me. We were both the most active members for years before Minimalist overtook us.

To give a summary of what our times on the forum was like for years.

me Wrote:Where is the evidence fr0d0?

fr0ds Wrote:It's ridiculous to ask for evidence for God, you need faith not evidence

me Wrote:It's ridiculous to not need evidence for God, faith is useless, you need evidence not faith. So where is the evidence fr0d0?

Rinse and repeat on an infinite loop lol.

These aren't genuine quotes I am paraphrasing of course...

Here's the real thing: http://atheistforums.org/thread-1767.html

All the way back in 2009, wow.

I read a post by him somewhere saying he was going to have to take a long extended break from here.  Didn't sound like fall out from any interactions he was having here.  But with a young family, busy job and a hot wife .. he probably has his hands full.

That is hard to imagine.  Not that either of you are shrinking violets but it is hard to imagine anyone as active as Mins.

Apart from being a theist, his heart was in the right place. I get that he broke the rules bigtime in some way, but still. One of the very few I could find common ground with.

Violet caught up to me before Min did I believe.

I remember being thousands of posts above everyone including fr0d0 when it hit 500 members exactly.

Of course... it's not all about post count.

I stopped being the top poster when I took a break for several years, basically.

I've come back and am active again of course.... I doubt I'll catch up to Min but.... I did do over 350 posts in 24 hours earlier in October.

ChadWooters had a nice username. It wasn't half bad.
