Supposed anti-religion vitriol even if it exists still isn't imposing their views on others.
Imposing your views on others means not allowing them to retain their own views. It does not mean living free of criticism.
That this is even hinted at on a site where anti-Canucks or anti-Edmonton or anti-everyaspectoftheFlameswhentheylose vitriol flows daily is just stunning.

Yeah, having a thread (or a site even) where people who have similar ideas can come and talk about them is terrible.
Imagine if there was such a site that didn't deal with such an important topic as religion and instead dealt with something as trivial as sports! I mean cmon, that a bunch of people would come have a circle jerk and expound their disbelief that others might choose to cheer for another team...

Live and let live means being free of any mocking and ridicule?
People mock and ridicule each other, it's part of our primate heritage.
