    Whoa, this should be called the nasty thread. Still haven't figured out how a thread like this can continue, well others that seem innocuous enough are deleted post haste. Guess I haven't been around long enough, though after reading this one, don't know if you want too.

    Welcome to MajorGeeks.com, Skittles.

    Don't let one thread sway your first impressions. This thread has forcibly touched on the three most emotion-increasing topics known to man.......religion, politics and cultural differences. It certainly is not representative of threads generally found here, and as you can see the tone in this particular thread is not tolerated by the owners of this site.

    Kick back and enjoy reading some of the fun and technical threads you will find throughout these forums, where most people are more than happy to just spend time peacefully getting to know and assisting one another during their free time :)

    Nope, this is a first, not at all representative of discussions usually here. Maybe we're waiting for an explosion, keeps me peeking back in, can't say why though. :(

    Yep, that was supposed to be Christmas 'fare', not 'fair' - one that slipped past spell-check. Then again, whatever does it for ya, lol.

    Most of our holidays have religious and often pre-Christian origins. Does that mean we should all dust off our Druid cloaks and perform the appropriate ritual, just because that was historically earlier? Nope, we just enjoy ourselves with others, and do whatever we relate to. Which is fine and dandy as long as we respect others who think differently. Historical origins to various times of the year are interesting, though.

    Agreed, that good will to others should be a 365 day a year thing. Something I try and do, even if it's just a little, every day. Some days it's not easy to be too chipper, I'll admit.



    @ Tim & Darlene:- Where's the train-wreck at?...;)

    Lot of members, lot of threads. We rely on members and moderators to point out threads to us. I think in the long run, we do a better job then most. For example, long time members are given a bit of leadway, where new members usually have a specific agenda, hence the quicker delete.

    My comments were only directed at people who thing Dec 25 is solely a Christian event and are "grumpy" because its losing its Christian traditons,I totally agree respect of other peoples beliefs is paramount.

    This thread should be removed immediately. It is being totally dominated by a bunch of sadwit mods who know nothing about computers and even less about the real world. Grow up you guys and try and get some reality into your lives.

    LOL, so, you call people names, then tell them to grow up. Your no longer welcome here, all your posts are rude. Don't come back.
