Ditto.

Even a fairly prosaic topic like the "Harry Potter" threads were filled with anti-Christian, foul-mouthed, vitriolic name-calling. For every parent who thought the Potter missives might be a bit creepy for their seven-year-olds, there were a dozen flamers who dismissed parents as "religious nut cases."

One wiccan even said (twice; in bold) that I was "worse than the Taliban" because of my dislike for the young wizard.

Where are the old posters of yester-year? Where's Metalbird1? Where's Boyd?

I don't think that was the problem. The problem was the parents who thought Potter might be a bit creepy for MY seven year old. That's where the Taliban comments are appropriate.
