I don’t have any more issue with you thinking differently about God and wanting to keep it to yourself than I do with a guy who’d prefer a .270 vs my .30-06... and I don’t mind a good spirited “argument” over which is “best”.

If people are to argue about stuff over which I care not, I don’t participate. If someone wants to tell me I’m wrong for an opinion I hold I engage or don’t engage by choice; no one can force me to read a thread or a post I do so of my own free will.

Everyone has the right to speak. How I respond to them is what’s up to me. I make a decision to engage when I open a thread, or post a comment. That’s on me.

Be nothing wrong with having you for a neighbour...something that cannot be said for a lot of others.


I completely agree with DBT.

It’s also up to you if you want to discuss your ideas... and even do so in a manner that displays poor taste by my standards... on a public forum. I won’t ever complain.

Again, if I don’t care to participate I don’t open the thread.

Speech is not violence; verbalizing an opinion is not automatically an attempt to convert those who disagree.

Public discussion boards are for public discussion.
