I like the political debates and agree they could be more cordial but even that really doesn't bother me. I have pretty thick skin and occasionally I post with some snarkiness myself. If this board was pure atheist, the posting volume would drop 95% and I wouldn't come just to read the latest "Why Christians are dupes, etc". There is no insight to be gained from that but I do find value in the political discussion especially when a liberal point of view occasionally gives me pause or outright pierces what I previously thought I knew.

I agree with you. I also developed a thick skin during my time at PA. Mostly I ignored the swipes, but sometimes paid back in kind. Umm started posting here some time ago with his same PA venom, but seems to have disappeared. I just don't want to see this Board fall as low as the PA did.

Otherwise I'm very happy being here and more kudos to Manlobbi for developing his 'Halls Of Shrew'm Blog.
