@PhilosophyExp Could you not point to the vile stuff without the name calling? Pretty strong name calling too. Just sayin'
Stephanie Zvan is an ignorant bully, but she's also absolutely right that the stuff here is vile, stupid, bollox: http://bit.ly/WdVprB

@AdrianaHeguy Well, obviously I could... -
@PhilosophyExp I was thinking about the experimented cited by@BoraZ here: http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/a-blog-around-the-clock/2013/01/28/commenting-threads-good-bad-or-not-at-all/ … -
@AdrianaHeguy Sure, but Zvan was happy to allow one of her commentators to call me an "active racist and sexist" last week, so... you know. -
@PhilosophyExp Not that I haven't said stupid things myself before. Who hasn't? it's worth to make the effort not to engage in tit-for-tat -
@AdrianaHeguy INot tit for tat. I wanted to be clear the fact I'm defending Zvan doesn't mean I think her behaviour generally is justified. -
@PhilosophyExp Yes, but you could have said: "I often disagree with Z, but this stuff is truly vile"...etc -
@AdrianaHeguy Sure, but the issue isn't that I disagree with her. I disagree with you about this, but I'd never call you a bully, etc. - 3 more replies

@PhilosophyExp: You had me at “ignorant bully”. Obvly that’s not nice, but what’s her business telling ppl who to associate with? -
@PeterMonnerjahn It was obviously a political move, Peter. She knew perfectly well how this was going to play out. -
@PhilosophyExp: You mean WW1-like issuing an ultimatum she knew ppl would reject out of hand, letting her take the moral high ground? -
@PeterMonnerjahn Yes, of course. We're not actually disagreeing about this particular issue, right! -
@PhilosophyExp Didn’t think we were. ;) Diff is, AFAIAC, pitsters r taking the piss,while SZ thinks she’s rendering a service 2 rationality. -
@PeterMonnerjahn Sure, where my view is that a) people need good reasons not to be kind (which might be in place here); and b) not all...

@PhilosophyExp How do you mount that high horse of yours? Do you use a ladder or fly up using your angel wings?#atheismplus -
@danielwaddell17 First the ladder, then some scaffolding, then wings, then I offer sugar lumps, and hey presto, I mount my trusty steed. -
@PhilosophyExp Is it too hard to carry a sense of humour with you? Were just holding up a mirror to them without the slander#atheismplus -
@danielwaddell17 Sure. But do you not think humor can be cruel? And if that is possible, do you not think it is a moral issue?

@PhilosophyExp it's not entirely representative of the Slymepit. She has picked the worst bits, naturally. -
@petehague I'm aware. But that stuff shouldn't exist at all. It's not defensible.

@JackTheRayner @petehague@PhilosophyExp mockery, parody, ridicule etc shouldn't exist at all??? Why not?
