Atheists & Agnostics
Showing Original Post only (View all)My Passover GD thread was hiden [View all]
because stating something that is obviously mythical didn't happen i9s offensive.
Another "now is not the right time" bs. At least some of the jurors got it.
I wasn't trying to be insulting, it was meant to discuss the importance of a mythical event. That claimning that simple fact is an affront to peoples religion is ludicrous.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS
This is absolutely tasteless (and that is the best thing I can say about it). If you want to insult someone about their religion I suppose that is fine (note I am an atheist but not an ass-hole so I don't even see the pint in that). Posting what appears to be holiday greetings and well wishes to insult people is beyond the pale and not what DU should be about.
