Truth be told, I see no problem whatsoever.

Well, I do see a problem with telling a whole class of people that they are not welcome. And I therefore find that the response ---> Free speech is a problem for you. You should start your own discussion club in your closet where it's relatively safe. to be justified.

Thank you for that information, but since that wasn't the sentence which triggered the non-compliance notice (and the portion to which Physicist refers to as namecalling), your feelings about that sentence are a diversion from the actual matter being discussed.

The portion of the post which was found objectionable was already highlighted in an earlier post, it looks as if you missed it.

If you want to be real picky about it, I didn't exactly say that creationists weren't welcome. I said that I wished they'd stop witnessing (getting preachy). I also said that these threads didn't require input from those with no belief or understanding of the scientific method. If you are claiming this meant that creationists should stay away then you are basically conceding that they don't understand the scientific method.

Either way, I have no right to demand that anyone stay away from any thread... and I admit that. Luckily, as I have no authority on FR, my request has no power... thus you have nothing to fear from it. So drop it.

And... I also didn't have a problem with ALS's response. I made myself fair game.

I see nothing wrong with that statement, either. I don't see where you're going with this.
