Joe, I think that this is obviously a continuation of the an argument on another thread.

I object to the loaded word "delusion" on both this one and that one.

I would suggest that you Mudadmins combine the two and change the title to something accurate and neutral such as "Atheist and Non-atheists debate." Or "Is there a God?" or "Is there NO God?" Or "The Existence of God?"

Since the other thread has almost 2000 posts, it seems to be a good time for another thread. Yes, you can (and should) view long threads in segments; but even so, a 2000-message thread is cumbersome. You're right that there's a question about the thread title - it took me a while to realize this was a different thread. "God Delusion"-"Atheist Delusion" — what's the difference? Still, why not? I've cracked down on thread titles that were pure political propaganda that didn't tell much about the contents of the thread, but this one surely makes it clear that it's another one of those religion/anti-religion threads. So, I see no reason to disallow this thread, although I've lost interest in participating in such discussions because it doesn't seem possible for Mudcatters on either side to get past their prejudices. -Joe Offer, Forum Moderator-
