Oh, I've never even looked at those.......LOL. I *knew* better than that.
I learned early on that it was just better to stay off some threads; I once ventured onto a stem cell discussion thread and mentioned that my sister had had ovarian cancer and that she had had stem cell replacement to help her stave off infection and I believe it permitted her to live three years longer than she would have.
Before I could even get out that they were her OWN stem cells, some kind "Christian" woman on here informed me that my sister had "lived long enough and she didn't need to have a dead fetus' stem cells to prolong her life.
I've pretty much avoided abortion and "Christian" threads since then.
I hope a federal grand jury will investigate that Gretna bridge closing.
Now that is among the most frightening things I have ever heard about a post here.
In just the past week I've seen "Christians" post that they hope San Francisco gets destroyed by a major quake so the "half million or so" (?!?) gays here will be killed, that Katrina was God's punishment for the practice of voodoo in New Orleans, that divorce and remarriage is adultery, and that most American women are unworthy sluts and whores.
I've come to the conclusion that either they are radical Muslims, posing as Calvinist Protestants, or that the difference between the belief systems of the two groups is so small as to be negligible.
My weakness are the Windows vs Linux threads that are as vicious as any on FR.
rdb3 used to be a regular on those threads but I think he grew weary of them as well. I used to reply to them too but gave up and mostly lurk.
