OK, well, just talking perception then, I can't read your mind, but if someone refuses to stand for the national anthem and dislikes patriotism, and then posts a link to a Truther documentary, absolutely nobody is going to buy that he's doing it "just as something interesting" (and I don't think anybody did). I'm open to the idea that you did, I'm just pointing out that perception, which I think is a similar perception people have when you post god/religious threads. But, like I said, it's possible that's just your sincere posting style (Edit: as opposed to the more common style people are more used to: i.e. "here's some commentary that makes a lot of good points" or "here's commentary that's batshit crazy, let's laugh at it"....when you go against that convention, some people are going think you're just hiding your agenda for kicks.)
