The back and forth on Netscape is a far cry from religous persecution. You are free to say anything you want. Just as others are free to say anything they want, be it in support or opposition. Far from persecution that is freedom of speech and freedom of religion.

Good to see that knee jerk reaction Servant, firing off the negative rating. If my skin were a little thinner I would think I was being persecuted.

GS, you are so full of it, virtually ALL persecution is done by religious people and groups against people and groups of other religions or faiths. Christians have been persecuting Christians of other denominations, sects and cults, non Christians, heretics, pagans and anyone else who don't agree them since Roman Emperor Constantine declared xtanity the official State religion.
As for complaining about the way xtans are treated by atheists on this board, 1st that's nothing considering the way xtans treat atheists and 2nd, your complaint exemplifies the maxim; anytime xtans aren't allowed to force their superstitious beliefs on the rest of us they complain their rights of "freedom of religion" are being violated.

The non-religious feel that they are under attack from the religious fundamentalists. It's true.
Look at the posts above this one.

There are only 3 kinds of people on this planet.
1. An Innocent child. one who has not reached the age of accountability.
2. A born again Christian
3. A Lost person
It doesn't matter what religious catagory/name a person is in or called, religion is all it is!!!
During the life of Christ the Scribes and Pharisees were the MOST RELIGIOUS people on the face of this earth. Christ called them the sons of satan. Religion CAN'T get a person to heaven, BUT JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET THERE!!!
