Just like liberals are trolls on this conservative Free Republic - atheists are trolls on the Religion Forum.
Atheists are often tolerated on the RF so that the believing posters will have someone to preach "to" or to hone their arguments.
I will handle major offenses no matter who was offended - but if RF posters are merely rude to you, endure it or stay off the RF.
Is a thread on an Atheist, Stephen Hawking really an appropriate Religious Forum topic?
