When the term ‘environmentalist’ comes to mind, I think recycling, water conservation, reusable shopping bags NOT setting fire to luxury homes because the homebuilders claim the homes were built in an environmentally-friendly fashion yet you don’t think so. This seems to be the story behind fires set by a group protesting the environmental-friendliness of a group of luxury homes in a Seattle suburb.

So you call yourself an environmentalist, disagree that a home was built within environmentally-conscious guidelines so the best and greenest course of action – as an environmentalist – is to burn the faker down?

Perhaps, you have read my previous story on MySpace deleting its atheist and agnostic group together with 35,000 members. If not, it is available here. Anyway, I decided to send them an e-mail to complain about what happened:

With great sadness I was informed that the Atheist and Agnostic Group has been deleted from your site. I personally find it as a disgusting case of blunt discrimination against 35,000 members. Is this what your company is all about? Since when does your company give in to religious bigotry? I guess Freedom Of Speech is not part of your vocabulary.
I am not expected to receive a clear answer for this, but at least you should be aware that we won't be silent. It is the 2008^th year of the New Era and we won't give in to your bigotry. Enough is enough.
Yours Sincerely,

Religious bigots found yet another way to release their venom against the atheists and agnostics.

Apparently, social networking site, MySpace.com, deleted the Atheists and Agnostic Group which had 35,000 members. This deletion, due mainly to complains from religious people marks the second time MySpace has removed the Group since November 2007.

Needless to say that the company refuses to re-instate the group using their back ups. They even refuse to comment on what happened. Apparently the Group has been hacked by religious vigilantes. Then, MySpace decided to permanently remove the Group.

While the West is turning into a useless bunch of administrators and financiers, China is mass awarding doctoral degrees. Guess what is going to happen 10 yrs from now.

Do you want to get some Va1grA pills? Would you like to increase the size of your penis? You always wanted to get a ROLEX but you cannot afford it. No problem! Get a replica. Perhaps you will become an instant millionaire by replying to the last e-mail you received from Nigeria. Your long lost cousin died and you were the only one with the same surname the barrister could find to pass along his fortune. Lucky you!
