police gave these murders low priority because the murdered were atheists[edit]

I'm rather uncomfortable about this claim. I'm not one to speak to police motives, but this really is out there, and if true is ripe for a lawsuit. Do we have any confirmation of this, other than one speculative article?--Green mowse.pngGodot 20:16, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Further edits[edit]

PeterL doesn't like all of what I wiote, perhaps he would like to write somestuff himself, here are some links.

you could just write better--il'Dictator Mikal 08:05, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
PC, this is a wiki. People clean up language, change focus, even scrap everything already in an article all the time. The passive aggressive "maybe he wants to write it himself" is unnecessary and childish. Please understand, no one is attacking you, they are just doing what goes on in wikis. If you don't like what they've changed, revert it. Let the mob decide. --Green mowse.pngGodot 15:09, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
Here someone wrote, "Whoops! Saw Proxima's name there and my delete finger just sorta' slipped". Please don't imagine again that nobody is getting at me. Proxima Centauri (talk) 03:26, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
And this awful bully thinks your writing is terrible. AceModerator 03:31, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

"Please don't imagine again that nobody is getting at me." What? -- Seth Peck (talk) 03:52, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Some editors change what I write because they think they can improve it, others are getting at me and it's not always easy to tell which is which. That's why I became a bit passive agressive with PeterL but didn't make outright accusations. Proxima Centauri (talk) 09:26, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
PC, I really don't get it. You are not a strong writer. Neither am I. Ask ACE or Seth how often they have to edit what I write. It's just not a big deal unless you make it one. God, Ty and P-Foster admitted to following me around and reviewing every edit I made. While a bit embarrassing, I suppose, it's how a wiki works and it improves the wiki. You just cannot take it personally. Some days, especially when Human was around, I got blasted "For fuck's sake learn to write", or "can't you find another wiki to edit". I've been there, PC. But it's just a level of frustration on their part. What makes them dislike you as a person is what you did here. the Passive Aggressive "don't fuck with me, cause It's not fair" stuff you are doing. You choose not to listen to their (and my) advice about how to make better contributions (like not being so knee-jerk anti religion, and not just putting random sentences in, and calling them a new section), so that makes all of us react badly, cause we aren't just fixing bad grammar, we are fixing bad content. (an even worse sin, in my mind personally). You seem to like the focus on you and you get it. Green mowse.pngGodot 15:23, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
PC is merely being contrarian. Ignore. AceModerator 20:46, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Apollo 8 lawsuit[edit]

Should there be a mention of her filing a lawsuit against NASA due to the astronauts of Apollo 8 reading an excerpt from the Bible during the Earth rise? I find this to be one of the many instances where she is unnecessarily abrasive and somewhat damaging to the image of atheists. 108.228.145.163 (talk) 06:26, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Added a bit about how she also sued the Apollo 11 mission. The woman was clearly an early SJW; everything had to be about her and her pet issue. Sure, it's also our pet issue, or at least a closely related species, but dammit it's the fucking Apollo missions. It's like when that ESA scientist managed to land a probe on a comet and a small group of people could do nothing but bitch about his shirt. For fuck's sake people, not everything has to be about you. CorruptUser (talk) 19:54, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
