I've been steering clear of these discussions, because, quite frankly, no good can come from them. However, I feel it is a little unfair to demand the closure of the thread because it appears to take an atheist standpoint, while there are enormous threads, which are allowed to run and run, which have been started from a viewpoint of the faithful. It's clearly double standards and unless every discussion on religion is closed (whatever happened to freedom of speech?) then this should be allowed to stay, IMO.
I discovered something interesting the other week - it is possible to have an Xbox Live motto "God Is Great", but you are not allowed "God Is Not Great". People should either be free to express their opinion without persecution or exclusion or not at all. I side with the former, no matter how annoying I personally find it.
