I can almost guarantee that someone asking honest questions and having an open mind about the answers will not be made fun of or called an idiot. No one's been called an idiot yet.

It's when someone refuses to look at things reasonably or ignores what's being discussed to continue to advocate an ideological viewpoint is when that person deserves to be ignored.. If a poster kept posting about their flat earth in spite of everything to the contrary, eventually you have no other option but to leave them be (and maybe at least think of them as an idiot).

I think people here are willing to do that, no one's been called an idiot yet.
