Well I believe an awful lot of us were pretty upset when RDF imploded. Richard handled the entire affair rather poorly (to put it mildly), but time marches on.
I prefer this site and wouldn’t want the old RDF back. I hold no animosity towards Richard (I did at the time), he made a severe boo-boo, but he’s only human. He’s done so much for free thought, atheism etc. that a slip-up here or there isn’t a major event... he’s still a great man.
As far as his new site goes... I’ve gone there a few times, but the feeling of camaraderie is gone and it seems like a very sterile atmosphere. It’s not my cup of tea, but many posters there are happy campers, so I wish Richard the best with his forum.
