I think that thread only takes 15 pages or so for a devastating plot twist!!!

Look, some people are different than you. They may not talk like you, look like you, or indeed think like you. But guess what? Thats OK! It would be a pretty boring world if everybody was exactly the same.

Let's all.. just simmer down.... and try to get along mmmkay?

The fact that you've written a post, ever, that has survived on these forums for more than 10 minutes shows that atheistforums members and admins are WAY more tolerant than X-tian sites, where the same consideration is very rarely extended.

Nobody is frazzled by your exercise of your religious rights.  You, I think, are frazzled by the idea that you are allowed to speak, and that people will exercise THEIR rights in telling you what they think of you.

Idk, I just hear they can be a bad influence, and can lead kids to doing actual magic (wicca, tarot cards, Ouija boardss) instead of focusing on God and his son Jesus.

But you think the dangers of kids getting involved in tarot/new age nonsense is minimal?

I used to be into new age nonsense. I used to read the tarot and be interested in magick etc.

It's all bullshit. It doesn't work. You have nothing to fear. Playing with a Ouiji board is no different to playing with a Monopoly board. It's a bit of cardboard with some heavy pieces on it.

If you think that there is something more to it, then please theorise as to the physical mechanisms by which it can work.

Look. This is my valid opinion. Respect it!

Also, Im concerned with Harry's reaction to the Dursleys treatment. If he were a Saint such as Therese of Liseaux of John of the Cross, he would pray for the Dursleys and love/forgive them in spite of their treatment.

Harry (in later books especially) is so sassy and disrespectful toward them. Not a good example to set in terms of family life or how to deal with suffering

Yeah, definitely a poe.

Never had any respect for you. You came here under an obvious false flag. Now you've dropped that act and took on a different persona. Why should anything you say be taken seriously?

Next time you feel the need to be mean to someone/exclude them just for being... different.... think of this song!

No one's frazzled; you're just an annoying twat that can't nail down a good Poe personality to stick with and you're seeing the reaction, that's all.
