That and I'm sure she removed her avatar based on comments made in this thread regarding her appearance and whether or not she was actually a woman. It's petty to attack someone based on their appearance when that has nothing to do with the subject.

Take it easy, I NEVER commented on her appearance. Not once. Let's not start lumping everyone together here. I'm not going to take the blame for something I didn't even fucking say, Nymph.

Try reading this again. Where did I make this assertion? I believe you are addressing Tibs and not me.

Sorry. My mistake.

So you and the handful of people that agree with you have exclusive rights to pass judgement? Because if you can't see that this is exactly what you have done to CL, there is something inherently wrong with you.

Not in any way is this what I am doing or meaning to do. I thought I made this pretty clear in my posts. Especially the one from this morning. If it's not, then as I said, I have not articulated my feelings properly, and will do so more carefully going forward. Doesn't change the fact that I think her God is crappy and inexcusable. But this is in no way a personal attack on CL. Nor do I, nor WILL I ever jump on the bandwagon of bringing someone's looks into a debate.

Agreed that god is crappy and inexcusable. That doesn't make her personally accountable for his actions or lack thereof. Additionally, it wasn't you that brought her looks into this debate. It was someone else.

Since when is it CL's responsibility to hold a non-human, who hasn't shown up for over 2000 years, to the same standards that she holds actual, live people up to?

For CL, it is an actual live person. Just a matter of consistency.

To be fair about it, I don't see anyone still passing judgement on CL, and a few of you are protecting pets of yours from all criticism as a means of building political clout around here. I still like CL, and I hope she comes back, but she should not be made by any sanctimonious assholes on a power play to believe her comments are above critical analysis, and she opened a serious can of worms with this thread.

Did I ever say you did? My response quoted Mister Agenda purely on the cyber bullying point; it wasn't meant as a response to you, or to even involve you, but merely to add that her taking down her avatar was also likely a result of the bullying (not yours, just generally).

I'd like to know where she said god is an actual live person. Again, this is like trying to hold CL responsible and accountable for the actions or inactions of god. How is this even remotely fair to her?

Agreed making comments on CLs appearance went a bit too far - nobody deserves that, even when there is a question on whether the beautiful people here are getting special treatment. I think they are, but for fucks sake that isn't her fault!
