**NO ONE CARES.**

Look, the purpose of dumping all you Christian crackpots into the Great Debates forum was so that you did not pollute all the other boards with your OCCASSIONAL preaching.

Cecil was being a nice guy by giving you a forum, _ **BUT NOW YOU ARE GETTING ABUSIVE!!!** _ I mean how long must I scroll through “Jesus this” and “Jesus that” until I get to a REAL DEBATE???

Is this the “Great Debates” forum . . ._ **OR THE JESUS SAVES FORUM???** _

Look before all you Moral Majority mushmouths reply to me telling me how I’m going to burn in hellfire for all eternity, let me tell you I’m a baptized Christian . . but if I want to hear about Jesus . . _ **I’LL GO TO CHURCH!!!** _

Dopers . … I already made a similar post on the “About the Message Board” section: I _IMPLORE_ YOU TO JOIN THIS STRING or that string and send a message to these Jesus freak spammers: ENOUGH IS **ENOUGH** FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!

Abusive? Spammer?

I see neither here.

Yes, there’s quite a bit of fluff here right now, and not enough debate. I agree. In fact, I’m guilty of posting fluff myself.

Bear in mind, though, that the board now has several new posters who are just learning our ways and our rules…have just a bit more patience, Ugly.

Well, THOSE thoughts are several days expired from being accurate, as the LBMBers who are sticking around are no different than the rest of us (for the vast most part).

Ugly Thruth? Well, you’re half right…

First off, allow me to apologize for posting this in the Great Debates forum. I just have HAD IT with all these nutcases.

I disagree that these are all newbies. This bullshit started right around the turn of the millennium, and I think these holy rollers know exactly what they are doing.

As for **YOU, Librarian** OOPS gee, sorry about that . . ._LIBERTARIAN_ . . . why you . … . how about these FOUR debates started over the past few weeks???

(Unjustly bumped in Debates from Questions even though it was a LEGITMATE question and not an attempt to start a debate- though I didnt know it was a thread before)

Oh, I get it. It’s supposed to be either funny or damaging to Libertarian’s psyche because you came up with a witty take off of his member name. I can almost guarantee that would work, but I am pretty sure he isn’t in the 3rd grade anymore.

Well, shut my mouth. It’s also illegal to put squirrels down your pants for the purposes of gambling.

What’d he name it?  
::groan::

Ugly…have you been keeping up?

The “hit and run evangelists” have all gone back home. The few Pounders who’ve stayed have been well-behaved, respectful, and insightful.

You do, however, raise a good point–some discussions **are** better suited to the LBMB than to this one. AFAIK, we’re allowed to post on their board now, so let’s try to be discriminating about where we post.

Oh, and just because this is the Pit…nah, nevermind–it’s too easy.
