It seems that FEY feels very uncomfortable about this discussion.
​
He hasn't taken part, but he has 'jeered' almost every post - regardless of the poster's religious/philosophical/scientific position.
(hehe - I can imagine him screaming "HATE!!!" everytime he clicked the jeer button.)
I suspect he is near either a breakdown or a breakthrough.
​
On the plus side (see what I did there?) I have 'cheered' every post that FEY 'jeered'.
So, his 'contribution' has been cancelled out.
​
Perhaps, if others 'cheer' posts that FEY 'jeers' then we could make blanket 'jeers' counter-productive.
{abe} Decided that 'cheering' wasn't a good enough solution. 'Cheers' revoked.

He did some reasonable posts on the creationist road trip thread, I think I'll go add my cheers against the jeers he of course collected there. Not to get even with anybody, but I sincerely thought they were decent posts that didn't deserve the jeers.
Obviously, whether we 'cheer' or 'jeer' a post is our own decision, but we should always read the post first.
Instead, in this thread, FEY was 'blanket jeering'.
He even jeered your own Message 13.
