Never, ever aim an attack at another poster. Attack the idea, the poster is impugned by association. Or attack the tactics, again, same principle.
There's no reason men and women of good will cannot disagree amicably.

That sword has the virtue of cutting both ways.That point is not missed, yet as you said it cuts both ways.
To: Jim Robinson
Yeah, right. I've instructed the moderators to only ban Christians. Since it is extremely doubtful that Christians are more abusive than atheists, then why is it only Christians getting banned on the evolution threads?
Also, you keep talking about abuse reports, how come I got suspended and warned for filing abuse reports on evolutionists? How come post# 2337 is still up? Is that not abusive?
Also, how come I got threatened by one of your moderators on post# 2524?

If you do not want to take the chance of having an abuse report attached to your post (and your account log), or to have your post pulled, or to receive a warning or a suspension or possibly even a ban, then DON"T POST THE ATTACK!! Well...I was served a warning, and asked what the attack was. No answer. I reviewed my posts on the thread in question, and I POSTED NO ATTACK.
In my case you warned me based on the word on a (trusted?) button pusher without evidence? What is that? Certainly not justice.
To: Jim Robinson
Only you can save yourself from being banned. No one else can do it for you.

Each abuse report and its corresponding post stands on its own. If you think we're gonna hash through hundreds of posts to see "who started it" you're nuts. If you do not want to take the chance of having an abuse report attached to your post (and your account log), or to have your post pulled, or to receive a warning or a suspension or possibly even a ban, then DON"T POST THE ATTACK!! Period. What could be simpler than that? Has absolutely nothing to do with an atheist, or your opponent, or anyone else. It has to do with YOU. Only YOU can prevent yourself from being banned!!! I'm glad the particular post in question is analyzed, no I wouldn't expect the whole thread to be read. I've been seeing people threatening to press abuse when no attack took place and so was hoping that it doesn't go on the record without being looked at. It would be easy to get someone in trouble if it wasn't looked at.
Don't post the attack!! Why is this so hard to understand?
When you said abuse reports, I didn't know if that meant someone just had to press abuse to get a hit on someone's account.

"no one will be brought to Christ by the type of discussion I've seen here."
You can say that again. I thought the doom and gloomers on FR were the champs of narrow focus and flawed assumptions. I see they have some competition.

That point is not missed, yet as you said it cuts both ways. I suspect that neither side is as clean as its partisans imagine it to be.

You are right: Within the safe havens (church, home, prayer threads, noncontroversial subjects) there is very little belittling going on. --I was referring to beliefs, not prayers--. However, to quote one of my moral compasses, Dr. Laura, only 5% of the population is willing to walk into the areas of controversy to fight for what is right.
I'll never forget the period of time in NYC when people allowed others to be mugged because they feared for their own skins if they reported a crime.

I posted two posts to AG that did not contain personal attacks. Next afternoon, I'm called on the carpet for harassment. Now, she never told me not to post to her. She was ignoring me, but I disagreed with a point she made. So, I went after the point, not the person. Is some people's word enough that an attack was made (even if no post is given where an attack can be found?) That's what I've been seeing on a lot of threads. People getting angry when their points are disagreed with.

The fact you are ignoring is it's CERTAIN PEOPLE who are being banned, and they are being banned for the contents of their VERY OWN posts. Has nothing to do with their religion. Each poster is responsible for his own posts. No one else can touch them. No one can save YOU except yourself.

Well, the anger goes back a couple of weeks before that, but I was not attacking the person.

I learned the Golden Rule in Sunday school. About the same time I learned about the creation of the heaven and the earth... and of man. Have seen no reason to doubt it since.

There's no reason men and women of good will cannot disagree amicably.
Key words "Good will". :^)

I'm bookmarking this thread; the very next time somebody tells me how nasty I am, they're getting this link!
I'm a rank amateur compared to some of these people.
