I've generally felt welcome, personally, but I've seen some pretty offensive things from time to time over in the Philosophy forum (and I'm pretty thick-skinned). Most people here are understanding of people with different worldviews, even Christians, but some people obviously have a chip on their shoulder regarding religion.

"The Germans believe that power must reveal itself in hardness and cruelty and then submit themselves gladly and with admiration[...]. They do not believe readily that there is power in meekness and calm."
