You were lucky - a ridiculous hide. There again, not unusual in this Group. mr blur Jul 2014 #39

Lucky? You think hiding a chronically disruptive poster's post is luck? rug Jul 2014 #42

Oh, that New Atheist thread got under your skin, didn't it. rug Jul 2014 #5

For myself, not under the skin, that is so dramatic - just a bit of fun. djean111 Jul 2014 #7

Plain word subsitution role-reversal getting under yours? AtheistCrusader Jul 2014 #37

If that sentence made any sense I could give you an answer. rug Jul 2014 #44

Sorry, making you understand plain english is not one of my super powers. AtheistCrusader Jul 2014 #45

I don't see him changing church doctrine in his lifetime which is a disappointment. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #10

So you agree that he's a bigot skepticscott Jul 2014 #11

Unlike the moral courage you exhibit by posting anonymous flamebait on the internet. rug Jul 2014 #14

I don't think he is personally but I think the church is wrong on the issue. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #15
