Manlobbi, as I found already after your new boards became active this Atheist board is not for me. But as I look at your "Top 10 posts of the day" several times I had a peek here when a post of this board made it into that list.

My impression from outside America (I am European (German)) is that it simply is a mirror of the "Big American Divide", a micro universe of what I read and what American friends told me about the deeply divided cultural wars going on in the US, especially between Republicans vs. Democrats, with as I was told dividing everything and everyone, even with bitter enemies within families. That divide seems to be an inescapable fact of life in the US, and as such it might be a good thing that those wars have a valve to let steam off on this board instead of polluting the Berkshire and other boards.

Just impressions from an outsider who is not really familiar with the US and therefore maybe very wrong. Unfortunately I think I am not too far off with my impression about this divide as I see this more and more creeping into Germany too.
