| Welcome to SFN Aerik. I suggest you just take a look around. What interests me may not be of much interest to you...  Have fun! |

 Why not question something for a change?

| How often to people check a Sticky that's 6+ pages long? 
 * I'm not going to call it my "favorite pet peeve" because, for one, it is an oxymoron; hell, the addition of "pet" to modify an annoyance into something you enjoy being annoyed by annoys me; and that is one of my peeves.  My biggest peeve would be language such as that little gem. Ugh.
 
 However, my biggest peeve as a skeptic would definitely have to be when atheists and secularists do unneccessary kowtowing to a religious group for whatever odd reason. On my blog, I ranted about this peeve generally, and then berated Ed Brayton twice when he said he "respected the fact that" the Catholic Charities group in Boston decided to stop helping children get adopted altogether rather than be forced to deal with - *gasp!* - gay parent candidates.  The fact that they brashly quit when a law forced them to confront a taboo ^or else^ tells us that they were not ever considering gay candidates for adoption ever, so their decision to quite being a state-appointed charity should cause a "Well FINALLY!" reaction, not a "Well I respect your restraint," BS reaction.
