I know what you're saying. I dropped out of DU back in '06 because of all the sniping and ambushing of some of these so-called Xians who lurked *OUR* forum to find stuff to tattle to TPTB about. Some good people got tombstoned, others just quit, and after coming back here for a few months and weathering the "transition" to DU3, where this fucked-up jury system allows more closet fundies to take cracks at us ain't cutting it for me, either.

A few "features" of DU3 I find particularly disturbing:
A less-than 10% minority (us Atheists) can supposedly "persecute" an 80%+ majority (the Xians)
All Male-Female sex is rape, all men are rapists, they just don't know it yet.
Woo is to be accorded the same respect as REAL Science.
We should primary Obama, or even vote for Ron Paul.
The inability to eradicate the infestation of Libertarians and Ayn Rand Objectivists. Oh, yes, they're here, bet they're big donors.

That's enough for now.

Gonna miss you, Trots.
