A little tolerance and respect from all sides would surely make all our lives a little more pleasant.

RANT, I'm happy to see you take that stance. As I mentioned earlier, I don't even use my "ignore" button as it seems to much like censorship. If I get to wound-up over a thread, I usually leave before I say something unforgivable. Usually...
What we have been discussing at this end of the thread (I think) is rather how to disrespect each-other in an inoffensive way, or thereabouts.

Well I'm taking that stance out of a bit of outrage over learning that some members have taken it upon themselves to form a little posse and target members they don't like or find offensive.
Uete naki yoru neko ni ataeru mono ga nai.
Question is, what to do? I believe a lot can be done without bringing the mods into it. They do a good job, but as there are some 40 000 of us, it would be good if we to could do something.

I can even say the Pope, the President and Capitalism are all part of the same conspiracy to keep the people down, and I'm grinning to my back teeth the man called the most evangelical Pope in history won't be spreading his lies anymore. I can even say the Pope single handedly killed millions with his stance on condoms and might as well have just dropped a bomb on Africa as evangelized them. I can even say Pope John Paul II is a murderer that deserves the spot in hell reserved for genocidal maniacs like him and Reagen and I'm glad the mouthpiece for the special evil in the world known as Catholicsm is dead.
And you can say I'm wrong. And you can say you don't respect my beliefs. But you can't make me respect your beliefs any more than I can make you respect mine. If you don't get that, perhaps a conspiracy site isn't for you.
This site is not about respecting world leaders. I can't believe that even needs to be clarified.
