I'm out.

Bye E,

I will miss you, you have always brought a different perspective to the forums that helped me think things through. I've learned a lot of things by hanging out on these forums and many of those lessons were aided by things you brought to the table. I would suggest that much of that perceived privelage you seem to see might be projected to fit your agenda or be the result of all of us posting from behind the safety of our computers. As a cisgender, non-gay, non-minority, non-female, atheist, I'm sorry to see you go.

I know the people who need to hear this the most will mock me and demonize me for this, but I'm past the point of caring, of trying to engage in intellectual conversation when I all I get is shut down with classic derailing arguments like "You're being too emotional". My tone doesn't change what I'm saying, and I'm not going to accept that as a valid counter point to anything I say. There's a mob mentality here, and when someone disagrees with a certain group of active posters, they're dogpiled, called a troll, and driven out. Well you've finally done it to me, you should only be so proud.

Remember that it's always good for your heart to forgive others. Take care.

There's a lot of drama around here lately.

Not really been here long enough to get involved with the seeming drama unfolding, but I did read the article in question and your replies in the argument with taverish and to be honest it was laughable. Other than that though most of your posts on the forum in general are a good contribution so on that note it's a shame to see you (or anyone) leave this place.

Sorry....couldn't resist.

You're bad.

....please know that there will always be a chance to come back here if you have a change of heart and/or want to discuss things openly. There is no demonizing going on, people here express their disagreement with you, and they are entitled to do that just as you are to disagree with them.

Pretty much my feelings. This was all just one disagreement, and that happens in communities. Therefore you'll always be welcomed when you have that same, base interest as the rest of us (which knits a community).

Sorry....couldn't resist.

How mature. It's good to see that civil disagreement is alive and well.

[Dotard]

Sense of humor. You're doing it wrong.

I for one am glad. Not because I'm a white male that is an atheist but because we don't need the drama.
