Just try not to let it bother you, Groj. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I know my comment above (which I couldn't help posting in the heat of the moment) suggests otherwise, but I really let it bother me a lot less than it used to. People have been saying the most hateful, intolerant and close-minded things on IW (not referring to you, Hierophant, this is a general comment) and the stupid thing is that they're entitled to do so (provided they don't violate the TOS in the process). (Unfortunately?) there's usually no way to change people's convictions and beliefs so while I do understand your reaction and am prone to reacting the same way it doesn't do you or anybody else a lot of good.
I'm not preaching indifference, God knows indifference is the last thing the world needs, but there are other ways to help things along... things that actually have results. [img]smile.gif[/img]
