   Excuse me? What the heck was religious in that post above? Pointing
out that someone's acronym expansion is wrong, and that the 'aids' in
the middle is a reference to the disease is not religious at all. Ian
Schmidt, Mark Miller, Joe Kohn, and many others are all fairly
areligious, and will say exactly the same thing. [Before you respond
to me, please demonstrate how Ian & Mark are such 'Bible-thumping
Christians in the same camp as me.' Be specific. Good luck.]

   Pointing out such a fact does not depend on the religious
affiliations of the poster. It's the activists who'd like to try to
point fingers and try and shift blame elsewhere that are the problem.

   Once again, you have yet to prove that the flame of Dr. Tom was
based on religious principles. Even those who aren't Christians can
still recognize lies and bullshit, and call it for what it is. Since
you apparently are incapable of recognizing that fact, I might need
to spell it out for you: WE'RE FLAMING THE LIES DR. TOM SPEWS OUT.
Nothing else should be read in to the words, unless it's specified.
