A stated goal...

Okay, then I must have written it, if so, please provide the cite, else expose
yourself as a liar.

I aint forcing religion on you, only a weak minded conspiracy theorist such as
yourself thinks this.

I simply decided to make this echo a place where both sides could debate.

I can name a slew of echoes that have changed from their original purposes over
the years, its called change, look the term up.

Well you chose your poison, got busy and was distracted, that isnt my fault.

As to your latter point, I think the bulk of the messages in here have come
from Ceppa and Sauer and yourself, all of which have demonstrated a  fervent
hatred of religion, and you have not been stifled in expressing yourself. The
fact that you feel your viewpoint is unchallengeable is quite telling, evidence
of a weak mind. One would think you would want people with a divergent
viewpoint to debate with, instead of singing to the chorus?

I take it, you are David Rice?

Can you please elaborate on the attacks on your web sites that have originated
from this echo since its resurgence?

 C> That's where I've been.

Just to fill you in, up to a couple months ago and going back to 2003 and
earlier, this echo was devoid of any meaningful traffic, except for a brief
message exchange here and there..  While it could be said that the bulk of
todays traffic is the result of only a handful of people, the message threads
are more sustaining than the tid bits that showed up in here since the echo got
quiet in the intervening years.
