Question Mark

Part of the reason for the ban on discussing religion is that some people will sometimes take things personally when the comments were not directed in a personal manner. Of course, sometimes statements are made that are personal, and personal attacks are always a bad thing.

On the other hand, there are some people (like me) who never take anything personally, even when someone is trying to make a personal attack. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]

In the end, in a vast majority of cases discussing religion usually devolves into a personal battle. It's really quite sad....
