I didn't say you were a member of any clandestine organisation

So, when you say tell your friends to stop trying to "throw their weight about" the implication is not that I have some sort of influence over a number of people? If not, why even suggest it? Unless to infer that there is some sort of "club" to which we all belong.

OK maybe you dislike religion or people who discuss HIV infection rates

I have asked before and no-one has yet supplied any sort of answer, let alone a sensible one. How come all the threads on atheism have become linked with HIV rates amongst male homosexuals? The two have nothing to do with each other. How come they are even in the same sentence?

Most of the arguments on here, including my own, are part sense, part opinion and a good pinch of complete bollocks. The only reason I stay with them is that they are mildly entertaining and when you are waiting for other things to happen it can while away a few minutes. The thing that surprises me the most is how seriously some seem to take it all.
