you're welcome. I don't easily get offended. especially on a forum. But others might feel you have and I think it a moderators duty to take into account all members who may post here and respect whatever their views may be. it's qualities like that, that should get you a mod position in the first place. I wouldn't expect opinionated, blinkered and/or bullish characters to be given a role ordinarily reserved for people who can show restraint, fairness, common sense and respect.

and Dawkins labelling is also wrong. he should not say that. as you rightly said elsewhere on the forum....

no one's opinion is necessarily fact. facts require evidence. i'm glad we agree on this.
