My two bobs worth FWIW !

Unban him !

Yes he does go over the top and yes he does antagonise people at times but I sometimes find him quite amusing

When he starts to get on my tits, do what I do, close the thread down and dont read anymore, simple !

If you really dislike Beardy dont read his posts at all!

PS - I havent seen the holocaust thread !

I never got to read the post fully but I do know race is not a choice.

Religion is a choice however...hence it is not immune to slander and criticism. And in a cosmopolitan society even culture cannot be immune from examination, even if it's unkind. All three abrahamic books say some highly slanderous things about people like me simply because I don't follow their beliefs - I am not planning to sue though

That is very true. It is hard to transcend one's upbringing...takes a special kind of strength few of us have. Especially if that upbringing does not give much focus on critical thinking and self examination.

Is it possible to 'block' a user - so you never hear or see anything from them even though they're still visible to everyone else?
That way....we could each decide who we 'ban'.

Okay, I've let this thread have a run, but out of respect for the mods (please take a quick look at rule 14) I feel its now time to close it. And just a reminder in case some of you missed my post here, it's only a temp ban.

Thanks all and have a nice day/evening/night.
