    Okay

    Religion is one of those things that people do get very emotional or opinionated about. People obviously have differing views and everyone is entitled to hold those views/beliefs. But that said personally I have not seen anything posted that I would consider to be unacceptable, or think that the majority of people would consider to be unacceptable. Nothing berating anyone's particular beliefs or anything.

    Nobody has posted anything offensive about any religion or about anyone's lack of religion on this thread.
    Forums are open places to post, if you choose to post then you accept that people may disagree with you and hold different views.

    This thread/ this board and this forum are not for discussing these issues. Probably best to keep off the topic altogether please.

    Hiya Niddy. Just popped back in to say Hi. I was once told never to talk about, women, politics or religion. In which case I would never have anything to say. Everyone knows I could [STRIKE] Type[/STRIKE] Talk a glass eye to sleep.

    Best wishes, catch you later.

    I love the glass eye comment handy :) my usual one is the hind legs and donkey scenario! :D

    They've not started again yet carol (two more matches being played before them). Although apparently Mahut has already been out practising his serves!
