Here goes that petulance again.
Okay, let me explain this again. When there is a message in front of me that
I have a response to I respond. If you guys don't want me to respond then stop
providing me with messages to respond to. Putting it another way, even though
I do not admit to being a troll, at least by the definition that was supplied
here earlier, if it is going to be a word that is applied to me then don't
feed the troll. See? Real easy, isn't it?

Now that really is ridiculous. Religion relies on faith. Those who are
religious fully admit that. Faith is the act of believing a given proposition or
set of propositions without any regard to evidence or reason. That is, if you
have faith that you can walk on air and you step off a cliff you will insist
as you are falling to your death that you are walking on air. Everything
about religion demands an acceptance of its precepts without question or
investigation.
On the other hand, I stand for a scientific view of the world, one in which
truth is determined by looking at the universe around us and experimenting,
that is, investigating. Now, somehow I am accused of being threatened by
ideas that I will never investigate? The absurdity of that position is
incredible.
It is the unquestioning proud-to-be-ignorant attitude of religionists that I
am in opposition to. I am the one who calls for religionists to stop being
threatened by new ideas and start investigating.

It's because he's threatened by ideas he probably will never investigate.

I agree with Sharon. Clearly the announcement wasn't
made for people like you and me, not interested, so
why read it and take notice of it? Do you comment on
the other literature discussion groups. If I had read
it, as you did, and noticed Miranda's comment, I would
have understood it to mean "others like ourselves."
She probably saw no need to add those last two words
because she assumed that only those interested in
discussion Christian literature would read the notice.
I'm quite certain that I understand what she means by
content that might be embarrassing to them, too,
without her having to state it.
Sharon's correct, though, that it really isn't
necessary to comment on everything that's posted here,
especially if it doesn't interest you.
