I’m certainly not a born-again Christian and I am usually offended by people who try to push their religions on others, but I really am puzzled by the nastiness that’s being directed toward steveo.
I mean, it’s not as though he’s hijacking threads devoted to other topics; he’s just creating threads about things he wants to talk about. Because they happen not to be things that I have much interest in talking about, I tend to avoid them. Why can’t the other “non-believers”
do the same?
As for whether this has any place on a bodybuilding forum, couldn’t that question be asked about the Politics forum in general? Also, isn’t it better that steveo post these things on a forum that doesn’t appear on the main page?
Yea, I agree, this whole thing is starting to remind me of a bunch of women trying to verbally denigrate this guy.
If steveo5801 wants to write posts about God what’s the harm. Are you guys that insecure that you can’t take a little diversity?
Some of you remind me of a bunch of whiny bitches the way you harass this guy.
Freedom of speech is not just for someone who wants to say “fuck you.” It also applies to men like steveo5801 who want to talk about God.
You don’t like it then ignore it.
Enough.

At last a voice of reason!
Your last point is a great one. "Freedom of speech is not just for someone who wants to say “f**k you.” Looking at their responses, however, it does appear that that is exactly what they are saying. I have the right to come on a thread to denegrate you because you had no right to start the thread in the first place.
More to the point – why is anyone who is not a Christian posting on a thread that says “For Born Again Christians Only?”
I call “troll” on everyone of you according to Vroom’s definition of the term “troll.”
So according to Vroomlogic, every troll should be thrown off the site for so doing.
Anyway, this has been an interesting thread just by looking at the reactions.
Of course, nobody has actually followed what I posted originally, but oh, well, so goes the trolls…
