There is no excuse for it.

I'm behind you 100% on this one, JW.

Perhaps the board is too full of cretins for the easily offended to continue frequenting it.

Easily offended? Is this where we have sunk? Someone uses F***ing and God together and if someone objects, he is easily offended?

Good grief.

Because THIS and THIS would lend credence to the opinion that you are less than truthful as well as a cretin.

Funny. One of you says OMG is the "official Internet shorthand", thereby implying OMFG isn't, but the other gives a link that show OMFG seems to be somewhat official (if not, widely recognized).

I'd say that unless we're posting on a 700 Club forum, your sensitivity is a bit over the top.

C'mon Tim, don't tell me that Obama's ridiculous appearance on the ND campus has turned you into a cretin too!

I do not allow GD or JC to be used as swear words on a ballfield, and I do find it offensive online as well. It is uncouth and uncalled for in any civilized conversation. I find it equally offensive when Tiger uses it into the TV mike to describe a bad shot. Great example for kids he sets there.

Be not deceived. God is not mocked.

I asked if Bob was drunk because the acronym he used was over the top in my mind. He then threw a canadian diss in there as if nationality has anything to do with being drunk.

What's ridiculous is your tendency to turn threads into political insults.

Well now...I didn't "turn" the thread into anything of the sort. And it wasn't a political insult, it was a character insult. It is also not a "tendency" on my part. I don't have any such tendency here. Most of my posts are strictly baseball related. I was joking with a friend of mine who is from South Bend. Other than that, what you said was accurate.

Not everyone walks the same path, Steve. I have an appreciation for the way you feel, but for me, I'm not going to ask everyone to believe as I do. This isn't really a place to hold court for religious indictments.
