If the mods did a better moderating job, then 80% of the braindead safe-space kids here would get the boot for being non-contributers, and it’d improve the net IQ level of this subforum by at least double digits, lol.

Then get an education, not all atheists are humanists, humanism is just a secular ideology.

Because Humanism’s an ideology that’s a popular alternative to religion for secularists;, atheism is just a ‘lack of belief in a god’. Stalin was an atheist, but wasn’t a humanist.

Humanism’s an ideology, whether it’s a cult or not is a matter of opinion.

Huh. I’d say non-contributers cause absolutely no problems. Don’t even notice they exist…

I had January 4. I think I was closest. He was just getting fun, with his pedantic insistence on incorrectly correcting people. I think I’ll miss our troll in the humanist mist.

I agree though. I’m surprised they bothered to announce his departure.

He didn’t seem to warrant an announcement, and the trolling examples **Bone** chose were pretty substandard attempts. If you’re going to link to examples, why not the “400 electoral votes” thread or some of his other more extreme trolling?

I was just wondering how long Jack would last. I must admit, seeing him taken to task for his bizarre assertions had some entertainment value. Well, at least he still has FB and YouTube comments.

**Bone** is new. I wonder if they had him announce it because it’s his first banning. And, yeah, as a bit of a present to everyone else.

Hell, I was just coming in here to wonder why these trolls seemed to last longer than they should. Guess they were being nice on the holidays.

It was **Bone’s** first ban. It’s like smearing the blood of your first kill on your face. 😃
