There are so many people in there who have no interest in the exchange of ideas but simply want to bash. I'm glad this group is here for rational discussion.

I'm dismayed. rug Jul 2014 #1
I don't blame you. I can't say I am shocked but it seems worse than normal. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #2
Today it was. rug Jul 2014 #3
Hopefully it will improve, but I doubt it. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #4

A few in that room can not handle being challenged. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #20
Some are truly just toxic individuals who revel in the discord. TM99 Jul 2014 #23

Just as an aside, I'm currently reading The Lost Gospel of Judas Iscariot okasha Jul 2014 #9
Lol I love the way you put that. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #11
I am seldom surprised by trouble. And insults don't phase me anymore. littlemissmartypants Jul 2014 #12
Great reading material. Sorry to hear of the stalkers. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #21

Glad that I'm not in the religion room anymore el_bryanto Jul 2014 #15
I am glad it worked for you. The religion room is very predictable. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #16
I think I check the Religion forum about once a week, if that. kentauros Jul 2014 #17
Yes I am glad that we have this group. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #18

I can't tolerate that forum wryter2000 Jul 2014 #26
Agreed! There will never be open debate with a handful of them. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #27
Wow, just wow! I never claimed I was neutral so where do they get that idea? hrmjustin Jul 2014 #31

Lmfao! hrmjustin Jul 2014 #34
Good idea! okasha Jul 2014 #35
Agreed! hrmjustin Jul 2014 #36
I did not expect as much drama as we saw today but I am glad the hosts took care of it. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #37
Shall go see what I've been missing today. okasha Jul 2014 #38
it is locked but it is simply sad. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #39
Hopefully we can maintain "peace in the valley" here. MADem Jul 2014 #40
Indeed! hrmjustin Jul 2014 #41
