Your best next option is to turn up and video it yourself. Rather than paying for a video camera, pay for a plane ticket and turn your disembodied online persona into a sensitive human being who turns up and practices what he preaches. Much harder to discount what you say after that. Bashing away like this does not make you a martyr, it just isolates you since it's very easy to ignore others online.

Actually, JR, on your second sentence, I see it differently.

He's taking completely secular topics, grabbing specific sentences, and carrying the context into the religious chatter section ....where he's blasting forum members based on things they said back in the non-religious area. Granted, intellectually, the blasts are comparable to shooting blanks - a few of us here in PA country actually get a kick out of the satanic comparisons (ha ha). But I see the religious chatter area as a way to start new conversations - not as a landing point with a huge non-sequitur segue from secular conversations.

But I agree 100% with everything else.
