Hi folks. I'm moving this to the Philosophy of Religion section of the forum.

Not sure what was going on there. Substance abuse, as he said himself? He could have been joking, but maybe not. Anyway, he has been perma-banned.

Never a dull moment, is there?

Hello and welcome!

Hi Alex, sorry I only just spotted your post. When I started this thread, which was apparently sixteen years ago (!)

This thread seems to have run down into a dark place. I'm going to lock it and then I'm going delete it. Behave yourselves folks, or people will be getting kicked out of this forum, OK?
