Yet...there are those of us that find...well, shall we just say more "mainstream" religions, to be fantastical as well. Yet the non-believers, of the mainstream religions are criticized for being intollerent. And, to a certain degree, I suppose that we are.
There are enough believers and non-believers here to provide for some interesting and fair, if not sometimes heated, discussion and debate. I think, however, that were I a Scientologist, I would most definately be keeping my head down. Much as I did as an atheist, not so very long ago.
What I'm trying to say here is that don't you find it extremely hypocritical to accuse others of being intollerent of your own beliefs, while pointing fingers and laughing at anothers? No matter how assinine those beliefs may seem.
Glass houses, much?

G'day Bill. Are adherents of Biblical religions required to post commonsense corroborating evidence with their incredible claims made on TFP?
In the interest of an equal playing field, I’d certainly hope so.
I for one am fucking infuriated when they claim, with nothing but
their Bible as substantiation,” that evil folk like me are going to burn forever, because my genuine belief - in a genial German Shepherd-headed Anubis in the sky - differs from their demonstrably bizarre beliefs.
