Again, I acknowledge you removing the image, and I appreciate it. Even in light of your right to display that image, you chose not to. Thank you.

Im sure much worse happens on the field. Maybe some dont want to tolerate it here, which I respect, but I dont think it will influence the colorful nature of my humor. Yeah, a pictures worth a thousand words and to some that might have said too much. In context, the picture is of Jesus, the thinker.
Flaming / trolling is not necessarily a moral issue. It is a civil behavior issue, which is quite another thing.

I also have no problem with an irreverant sense of humor... in this very thread I "accused" Mike of being a "heathen" and a "reprobate", when I knew both to be untrue, just having a little irreverant fun. Nothing wrong with that. Well, on reflection, I'm not so sure I know he's not a reprobate!

To clarify, I only objected to the image itself. Not your words, or even your humor.
