I never asked you to "justify your presence" here. I've asked a perfectly reasonable question about what name you posted under on IMDb, which you have refused point blank to answer. This thread appears to be a textbook case of concern trolling. Whatever floats your boat I guess, you certainly generated a lot of delicious replies to feed your habit. I quoted anonymity laws. This is not facebook, and neither are you an employer. Telling us your IMDb username still makes you anonymous.

Does it look as if they are all against you there, too? No. And i don't like your condescending tone. Chill out. So it's just here that we are 'trying our hardest to gang up on you' and it won't work? If it won't work then why have you 'reported posts anyhow'?.

If it won't work then why have you 'reported posts anyhow'?. I have only reported posts that are very offensive in nature. I haven't reported a single post by you or the sane members. Only one or two users were out of line, and only their offending posts were reported.

welcome to the internet. Abuse counts as "being told they are wrong."

Actually it is. Life really begins to suck when you grow older. Age doesn't excuse either lying or making false accusations.

I seriously did not want to get involved. But things were getting nasty here. Some user was posting her facebook status and saying that she hasnt blocked him. This kind of mob cyberbullying mentality is unacceptable. Please discuss things and attack each other's religious viewpoints, but dont get personal.

Meh, it's pretty apparent even from a quick perusal that the tone and "bullying" is coming from both ends. As with the old IMDB forum, those engaged in constant bickering tend to get precisely the treatment they cultivate - most of the ongoing animosity is a continuation of the same stuff the posters involved have been indulging in for years. Unless you're deluding yourself into thinking people who fought, non-stop, for ages on IMDB suddenly came here for functional dialogue. But I don't think anyone here is that dim. In some of these cases, the posters in question are likely (and literally) addicted to the negative exchanges. Heaven knows it's certainly a well-documented thing: www.psychologytoday.com/blog/obesely-speaking/201411/excessive-attention-seeking-and-drama-addictionA good example of what I'm talking about can be found in my first thread on the forum. It's nothing but an innocuous "hello" that addresses some points made on other threads, but it attracts an immediate attack (in no way related to the actual post) from one of the individuals who is simply here to fight, someone who's developed a dependency on negative attention. You gotta learn to walk away. It's incredibly freeing. Just because it's happening doesn't mean you need to read it, much less take part.

It was ongoing on IMDb boards. And it is continuing here. They not only mock the believers, but they bully them and even harass them constantly. This should not be allowed. Everyone has a right to believe what they want to believe, and discuss it here. If you don't agree with their beliefs, then don't bother them. You are not supposed to tell the other person what to believe. They are free to choose whatever they want to. Please keep this place civil. What was your name on IMDb? It does reek a little of pretense.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Last week I threatened to beat up Allaby if he didn't give me his lunch money. He said I didn't have to threaten him. He gave it up cheerfully and said he would pray for me. Then I tried to push Muriel around and she just laughed and almost smothered me with kisses. Clusium smiles and ignores my demands to make me sandwiches. Gadreel challenged me to a swordfight. And Morgana, well, I can't get her to say anything bad about anyone. I try and I try but they just don't take me seriously. I'm so embarrassed and I'm afraid soon I'll have to turn in my atheist card.

Interesting link; not only does it explain a lot that happens on this board, it also explains a lot about a few people in my life that are addicted to attention.
Thanks!

Actually it is. Life really begins to suck when you grow older. Actually I don't care a lot for your definition of "elderly" or "old" and would guess that the person being described feels the same way. If I remember correctly she is just in her early 60s.

Someone in their 60's is old, that's just the facts.
