    Attacking people for their non belief, the theist troll' s concept of freedom from religion and from persecution by the religious in America...

    ...even going so far as to suggest they made a euphemism for killing someone when "put down" (is a description for being laid in a cot like a baby) all because of their non belief in God?

    Can you say fascist knee-jerk thinking by the theist Troll?
