    That Stephen Fry thing about offence yet again?! I see more of that being said than actual offence being taken/looked for, particularly this last year.

    Why do I see people throughout this thread using it and thanking it who'd normally be on the receiving end of the very same rhetoric from people on the right in discussions about e.g. sexuality, transgender or Islam?

    Because Christianity is ok to belittle, it's not a concern for liberals (and I say that as an atheist and a liberal) - that's why.

    Effectively telling people who have expressed concern with one thing to go to another site (and being quite derogatory towards them) - wow.
    Yes,precisely.This is what I think makes administrations uber cool "bollocks to that" talk all the more redundant.If that was the true approach of this forum then no subject would have the protected status that the ones you highlighted,and more,enjoy.
    And yeah,to hear the administration say directly,in no uncertain terms,that if you have an issue with the forum and wish to discuss it in feedback then you should go to some corner and not highlight it,well that is quite saddening.And to have the audacity as to say that the more one highlights an inequality in the forum the less you'll be listened too is an outrage,just an outrage.

    Thanks for making my day. :D

    And at the risk of offending those that do not follow the lunar calendar (yes, I'm talking to you, Muslims), I wish you all a Happy New Year.
