Look, Godbotherer, why don't you save yourself a lot of time and trouble and just leave the way you came in?

Broad sweeping assumptions on the answers returned & viewed are no basis to make such a statement.

That to some may seem a little Bigoted

Dave , if you look back at past quotes you will see that this was not so.

How tolerant you are.

Anything in particular ? As I'm still fairly new to all this I haven't read all the back copies, only those that have a bearing on whatever is current !

Toleration is the font of all wisdom.

It is easy to make cheap , shallow jibes at the expense of those who have deeply-held beliefs and outlooks on life different from one's own.

It appears to be not so easy to provide an in-depth explanation of one's own conclusions of what Reality is to back up the snide sneering.

May I suggest that those who wish to make such criticisms do so with some element of wisdom which gives expression to their views.

So, you must be going for a full house, you come onto the site, find that some folk don't like religion or the pious (and often ignorant), views that your kind often hold dear and instead of minding your P's & Q's by tolerating our views you set yourself up as a missionary out to save our souls.

Well, you aren't the first and you won't be the last, we don't ask you to change your views to fit in but if you want us to change ours then you can F...ind another website.

P.S. Our Bigotry isn't just focused against Christianity & red knecks, we have very little tolerance of zealots from any religion.

I'll say good bye now, with any luck you won't be a religious nutter that refuses to take a hint. (No chance, it would take a miracle for that to happen, and God stopped believing in us years ago).

Personally JCB, I find your post somewhat strange.
Accyweb is a microcosm of life.......what you see here, you will find walking the streets of any town in the world.
We all have our opinions........they may not be the same opinions, but they are ours.
We chose them......our choices were made because of experiences within our lives.
Wouldn't the forum, and indeed life be very boring if we all subscribed to the same views?
It is not in your remit to judge us. Yes, you may have your opinion....which you have stated clearly.....and you are entitled to that opinion......but please do not try to influence my opnion on anything. I am quite able to use my critical faculties to decide what I do, or do not believe.
I take it that you joined the forum, having looked at it first. If you now decide that you don't like what you see, then you are not tied in to it. Please feel free to leave.

Are we getting to the bit where you start using biblical quotes soon?

Margaret Pilkington · 24-05-2010, 19:29

Your characteristics are those of a Troll.
Oh, and by the way that is my opinion.

Please read my thread.I haven't asked anyone to change their views.I respect you and your right to hold sincere views.I am objecting to bigotry , or so it seems , by the language used.Clearly,, like me you too object to religious bigots.

Sorry I ain't going to be bullied away.

Margaret Pilkington · 24-05-2010, 19:42

I will not post again to this thread and would suggest that others deprive this thread of the oxygen it needs to survive...posts

You know that horrible, sinking feeling you get when you realise you've got a nutter sat next to you on the bus? Does anybody else feel like that now?

SPUGGIE J · 24-05-2010, 19:43

What me n the big bod up yonder is personal. Though I think he is either going deaf or throwing me a deafy.

If you want to stamp out bigotry try starting in Belfast or Glasgow.

JCB = Jesus Came Back.

Now what will we do run repent or laugh?
