Okay, we already have one troll going by the name of DOS (or DOS et al) on the mainpage. Now under the quote about banning religion we have someone who goes by the name of Brigged. To me, he has Troll written all over him. Look at his statements, from the very beginning he's been antagonistic:
"You're all just hating on [the fundie] cos you don't want to have to put your fat asses in a place that actually makes a difference, like real men.
"Wars and violence have always been the greatest driving force for cultural evolution. That is the way we would evolve beyond the need for religion."
"The notions of violence and suppression are the stumbling blocks here that make you think of me as a monster or a troll. Of course, America is founded on a death toll greater than that of the Holocaust, and your military is killing innocent people as I type. If I'm a troll, then what is your military, /b/? Most people can accept that violence can be used for good. All I suggest is that it should be. I can live with the stain of being a monster, because I have lived with it all my life. I am a human."
"You think that intelligence is tiered, that some people are smarter than others but ultimately everyone is capable of taking responsibility for themselves. This is not nor has it ever been true. Plato described us as the philosopher-kings and scholars, and them as the 'rest', the fodder, the soldiers and merchants. Human intellect is hierarchal."
"[Believers] need us to control them. However, no animal likes to be caged. So what did we do? We used force. We forced them to see that they needed our guiding hand. And when they did see that they would flourish under our guidance, they accepted us as their rulers, and went straight back to not caring. So it is throughout history."
So, he talks about non-believers being inherently more intelligent than believers, talks about "cultural evolution", says that non-believers must control believers and says violence is the only way to do so. Is it just me, or does this sound like what Ken Ham thinks an atheist (or "Darwinist") is like? Remember the "White Power Atheist" fiasco where a black Christian was disguising himself online in order to make atheists look like racist bigots? I have a funny feeling about Brigged here...
