SRS, "Slanted" implies a disproportionate amount of influence, in a pejorative manner, being utilized in ongoing discussions. I don't think that's the case. You're simply finding yourself in a mix of people who (like myself) were compelled by our parents or our society to keep a lid on it for years while the christians ran things and presumed that everyone else agreed with them.

That's true of SOME people, but it's true of others that they feel that having been raised that way gives them reason or excuse to deliberately attack. It is disproportionate, it is pejorative, it is deliberate. THAT's what I was referring to. I'm not the least confused about it and I don't need you to reinterpret it for me.
