    Regardless of getting kicked off or what… This is my last comment on the subject. Frankly, it is too frustrating and not worth another word. I will not even respond to further replies. Not to be rude of course, but just tired of banging my head against a wall.

    Until our society focuses on science to progress: it will always be a challenge. I used to stick up for people and their beliefs. I was oblivious to the cost and effects of letting people get away with this kind of behavior. I even know other non believers that still stick up for believers ’cause it’s the “right thing” to do. If they only knew… Questioning EVERYTHING is more important than someones feelings. If you really believe in something and have done your homework on the topic: there should be no problem. Debate is what is needed, not strong arm tactics. Logic and reason will always win eventually. We have been trained to never question a taboo subject such as religion and that is very frightening for man’s future.

    I guess I should admit that I find mindspeak, astral doors, UFO connections, etc. quite unbelievable. Religion was just the one thing that seemed like something I wanted to address at the time. I find all equally sketchy and I know that many others feel the same. We should have a voice as well in order to keep things fair.

    First off Knobby, I thoroughly enjoyed your account and appreciate your sharing it. I can tell by your reply to my post that you are offended by my statements. That was not my intention to upset anyone. However, I do see that the ‘hurt card’ is being played by some. That doesn’t seem to be a very neutral stance and is quite unfair when others who disagree raise it in a discussion. Everyone’s POV’s should be honered. Even us who don’t ‘believe’. I can tell by some that it’s ok to offend non believers and that is just not right. It seems very one sided. To those who replied to my post and understand… Thank you so much and take care!
