Well Guest#, I've definitely cut down on the name-calling. I'd put Joe way above me in that particular league table in recent times. I suppose I could work harder on being diplomatic, like Bill, with whom I agree on almost everything (don't want to make him feel too uncomfortable...), but sometimes I feel that certain people just need to be told straight ;-). It's the Celt in me, I've been told. You know that I think that religion cries out to be attacked. For centuries it's got away with murder (sometimes literally) and it's damaged millions of people in all kinds of ways and discouraged people from seeking the truth. Hiding behind ridiculous heresy laws, poking its nose into every facet of life, and demanding respect for things that adherents think should be held sacred that in reality sorely need to be confronted, has all gone on for too long. All right, so it's sometimes impossible to attack religion without criticising what many believers hold dear. That's their problem I'm afraid, not mine. But always it's the belief that's under attack, not the believer, unless that person is trying to do harm with their beliefs, to children for example. Anyway, that's where I am, so excuse me while I duck.
