    A fair point.. Religious discussions probably should be off limits as they lead to heated and usually nasty discussions...

    So you lift the quality of the discussion by calling the persons who question religion 'incestuous'? I just don't see the rationale...

    Also, you make a very wrong assumption in concluding that no one sees the difference between questioning and the insulting that Feanor chose to do... In fact, FA already made it clear that she disagreed with Feanor...

    I use that word because it's always the same few that promote this subject.

    And, as it now stands, she's the only one who sees it as wrong. I truly give her credit for that. As for the others, well, see for yourself.

    Like I said at some point earlier, don't discuss religion or politics (or cables) if you want discussion to remain polite. This is because people abandon rationality when they get into these topics. Religion in particular is non-rational by definition.

    Silly of me, but I draw a distinction between denigrating an idea or mode of thought on the one hand and personally insulting an individual on the other. I forget that people invest so heavily in their ideas, that they see attacks on them as attacks on their persons.
