Wanna say Jen you drink your alcopops and hope you didn't take offense.

Freedom is what I and those whom I truly respect stand for. Not in a war sense but it aint free
Agree with everything you say Astro!
I too was a bit disappointed with the locking of the 2012 thread as well. Actually, a couple of these type threads have been locked. I'm not a believer either but it seems to me that whenever someone wanders in here asking about Nibiru (or whatever it is) or the 2012 prophecy, that the thread is locked down pretty smartly. This is a shame as a couple of these people seemed to me to be genuinely looking for answers or information and obviously thought that they had come to the right place to ask.
Surely it would be better to discuss these fancies in a calm and logical manner and provide some genuine education as opposed to using ridicule and locked threads. Rudely rubbishing peoples beliefs or treating their questions with disdain doesn't quite cut the mustard with me.
"To inform, educate and entertain", is a noble and worthy mandate.
Pity we couldn't live up to it just a little more often.
