retrocop - // A certain ABer seem to use it for his own amusement and gratification. (a) to denigrate and put down any one who choses to share a belief and (b) to show what a smart a#$e he is. The sort of person who gets a perverted pleasure out of poking sticks at lunatics in Bedlam. Not very edifying but typically cowardly. :-( //
No-one is obliged to interact in any way on this site if they choose not to, either because they feel intimidated, or they simply don't like one or more individuals.
Personally, I will and do interact with more or less everyone on this site, and I am not backward at defending my opinions.
That said, I would never deliberately debate with anyone who I did not think was more than capable of responding in a similar manner.
That position absolutely includes Theland who, as advised, is no shrinking violet and is more than capable of giving as good as he gets with anyone who does not share his viewpoint.
Given the amount of threads he has created, it would be nonsense for anyone to regard him some sort of faith-based Aunt Sally, clearly he is anything but.
If you feel 'a certain AB'er' is behaving in a way which you find inappropriate, you have redress to the Editorial Team in the same was as any other AB'er - via the Report button, or a direct e-mail.
That is the correct way to address your personal issues, rather than making unpleasant and unattributed observations on here.
