Rule eight: ANY religious discussion threads must have ridiculous quote pyramids to make the discussion more disorienting and overall confusing.

Rule 12: If you want to create a really hot topic, let Dream Theater, King Crimson, Rush or Yes be the subject of it, no matter how many similar threads there are, or - if it is not about music - create a topic about religion (Darwinism included) since even the most notorious atheists and agnostics may be thoroughly fascinated by it.

Rule 18: Once you get in a dispute, never give up. The opponent is ALWAYS misreading and/or misinterpreting what you say, that's why he is totally wrong.

Rule 19: democracy is not good... make sure your polls can prove only what you want, don't let the common people decided freely in your polls.
Rule 20: Changing others posts when you quote them is the best way to win a discussion...
