He's essentially skirting the rules by posting in one group to complain about his block in another group. Normally I wouldn't even respond, but he has no fucking shame.

And as I alerted on it, I assume that the religion group hosts have decided to not lock it. So much for their strong defense of "we need hosts". No we don't, they are useless.

If it's going to be a free-for-all, poo-flinging shitstorm of OT posts that are left by the hosts, there's no reason to have hosts.

I made my case, but obviously they shut me down 'cuz I'm one of them meanies from A&A.

in the interests of group harmony, with no suggestion that the op is off topic meta at all.

I made it very clear that it is a violation of SOP and meta shit stirring.

I'm not a host of religion though, but it couldn't be more clear that it's a violation. It's even spelled out in the host group OP.

Not a reasonable doubt about it.

Since my response to him when laconicsax was PPR'd was the only hide I have EVER gotten in DU2 or DU3.. I will keep my thoughts on him out of this post to avoid another hide.

But about a month ago I took everyone off of ignore (LOL all 3 of them). I figured things would have changed in the last year, while I've been basically MIA with the babies. Oh, well, I guess things never change.

But I fully support the idea of a shiny new atheist group.

As long as they call it "Inter-Atheist." Sure to be a rousing success, based on past experience.

9 Recs from the usual suspects.

I think we should have a separate new Atheist Group but only for me so that nobody who dares to ̶ ̶a̶r̶g̶u̶e̶ discuss progressive theology with me is allowed to speak. And my wife agrees.

Groups are, by definition, formed by people who share common interests, ideas or beliefs
and then proceeded to ignore the first 2 elements and concentrate only on the belief side.

for having hosts in that group. I still think safe havens, such as this one, need them for reasons that should be obvious, but they appear to serve no useful purpose there.

And he and his supporters know damned well why he got blocked, and it wasn't because he was tolerant of religion. His gravedancing when laconicsax got PPRed would've been reason enough, but it was far from the only reason.

If AA doesn't speak for all atheists and agnostics then I say a new room should be started.


No Justin we don't need another AA group and some should keep their nose out of our business.

shit-stirrers over there, there just giving as good as they get and calling things like they see them.

Of course, when they get a dose of the same, it's "bigotry".
