perhaps if any of 2PAC's posts were in English, we'd have something to go on - but given the content I can decipher, my vote goes to [drum roll]

Atheist troll created by duplicitous "Christian"

deftly changing the subject....

I've taken the greatest combination of sleeping pills ever! I *know* I'll get to sleep tonight!

In fact, that's where I'm headed now.

Nytol.

This episode really isn't doing much to improve my admittedly biased opinion of some christians, or christianity.
If it's any defense, I'm pretty sure that "lying to atheists is okay" flatly contradicts the sense of the source materials.

you know, thats the thing which really shits me about CF, the sockpuppets and the inherent dishonesty. Totally unchristian i would have thought, but alas, those rules like to twist and writhe like a snake around an apple <or fig if we want to get rid of that small biblical error>. LouisBooth and Outspoken, everyone knows it. And why? So he can spout his homophobic, bigotted, ignorant opinion without compromising his position. For fucks sake, if you want to say something, how about having the balls to actually say it.

And gunnysgt, i personally, and many others who post at CF find your superfluous American Military Regalia annoying as hell.

GySgt/2PAC,

I've seen the evidence, as well. Have either of your ever been diagnosed with split personality disorder?

(It isn't complimentary, but it might get you out of the lying rap. They have you dead to rights, my good man.)

d,
counsel for the defense

I know this is gonna sound dumb, but I actually feel I should defend Louis's "Outspoken" persona. To the best of my knowledge, no effort has EVER been made to hide the connection. Rather, my understanding is that he used an alternative persona to avoid the possibility that people would be afraid to argue with an "admin". Keep in mind, he started the second persona when the CF rules, read literally, forbade arguing with staff - no one meant them that way, but people got worried.

I don't think anyone is unaware of this, and I don't think that the second account has any effect on his ability to remain a staff member while being, IMHO, fairly bigoted. Bigotry is not a disqualifier for moderation, and probably shouldn't be, strictly speaking.

I don't think there's anything particularly sinister in the LouisBooth/Outspoken thing. If there is, it's news to me.
