I think having non-spammers proselytize here just so they can get beaten down is good. Then they can be deconverted. Show of hands, how many are you are former theists who have since converted?

Two fundies have come over to the darkside and one on the darkside has gone to the light. Those are the ones we know of. I am of the wholistic breed where I embrace both light and dark |

Proposed new rule:
Have a vote once per year on most disruptive person on the forum, then ban them.

Well, first, we should have a vote whether we should have the vote, and then have the vote if it's a majority. If it's a peaceful year, then fuck it.

Someone's turned theist? Give me his name and address.

Trentonzero is his name. Obviously his address is private as are all of ours. He was raised atheist and was atheist on IG forum for x number of years and crossed to this forum. He became a Catholic maybe two years ago. Don't even try to think he was weak He was a badass debater when it was necessary for the atheists. |

I wasn't impressed with Trent's debating so much as his perspective, being and Engrish teacher in China and all.

He's in Korea now. I still don't understand his conversion, but he's still good people and I wish him well. |

He was on HBA's forum for months so I do understand his conversion in as much as he himself understood and shared. He added a lot to the IG forum with his overall worldview be it politics or filling us in on facts of his job etc.
He generally wasn't theist friendly and that is what I meant when I said he handled himself well. He wasn't mean like some are but he was a strong atheist, not a weak one as some like to qualify themselves. |

Yeah, but The Rick Copeland wonders what happened with him. Whatever it was it must've really been something...
