Do you feel like people are being *******s to Sansa? I am not choosing sides, and picking who is right and who is wrong in this matter, but in the manner it was handled, it seem like being a little *******-ery the way Sansa's response was replied to, no?...could I be wrong?
For your point to make sense she would have had to, as a theist, attack atheism, and we would have then had to respond in a confrontational manner. She did not attack atheism, and we did not attack anybody's position as a theist. She came in with a confrontational, off-topic post and was called on it without any name-calling. I don't see how we're being *******s.
