Why not -- is religion some kind of a "no Fly zone" that can't be criticized?  Should christians refrain from quoting bible verses when atheists post? it's bothersome, yes, but should it be banned? should they stop reminding atheists of the eternity in hell that awaits them?[/quote]

This is just what I said would happen. The false argument that atheists are being banned from posting. No. But tell me the motivation for commenting about fairy tales and anti-religious rhetoric when believers are just having a dialogue about something they share in common. What makes you think, "Oh, I have to get in on this ..."?

Again I ask, why post? Not, should you be allowed, but why post in those instances?[/quote]

no one says that atheists are being banned from posting but you, above.  The issue is why should anyone with any religious or irreligious opinion not be free to criticize. The motivation, on all sides, is the free expression of opinion.  It can be unpleasant to face criticism of one's beliefs - those are the breaks.  To avoid intrusion,  maybe you can set up a private message board somewhere, get testimonies of proper belief and charge admission. [/quote]

I'm saying there is no need to criticize in every faith-based thread and yet there seems to be a lot of it. The criticism is not organic at all - it just pops up with talk of "fables" and "delusions". Why post criticism when there is no debate at all? Two people are discussing something common to them (no argument in sight) and a third or forth party comes in with criticism. Tell me how that makes sense.[/quote]
