I have been here for around 4 years now, and we have a good mix of intelegent people. Myself I am a religous man, my mate Chris here is not.
We can of course talk about many things an often any discourse on philosophy will inevitably touch upon the question of God. As a religous man, I really don't care wheter Chris shares my particular faith, or any faith at all, what I care about is that when we do talk he is always polite, freindly and willing and able to discuss whatever is is we are debateing. Posts like Omprem's really do nothing but upset the nice balance we have here, which is why you find me sideing with any atheist under attack. Then again the same can be said about anybody on this group. I like it here and when I witness what amounts to arsey attacks based on nowt more than a differance of opinion, then I'm willing and able to shout back. Ultimatly it is enough for to know that Chris and I do not see everything entirly eye to eye, but bugger me what a boring world that would be if we did huh.
