I have my doubts any e mail was received.
Yes it has been done, e mails passed on by request.
But just as so many get it wrong in comments.
A FEW GET IT WRONG IN MATTERS OF TRUTH.
However happy Christmas to all.
Including that mod from Lakemba, and the black Darlek like pedestrians on Sydneys streets.

OzSpen,

You mean, of course, the alleged letter from the Atheist Foundation of Australia. We sent no such letter.

This is a disquieting accusation by worldwatcher and it is in need of clarifying. If worldwatcher does not wish to forward the alleged email to the AFA so our technical people can look at it, and no such email has arrived, I agree with you a first priority should be to contact the Online Opinion editor.

The AFA treats all emails as confidential and is very strict with that rule.

It would be the correct thing for worldwatcher to do to let Forums members know what the stage of proceeding are. Has the Online Opinion editor been contacted and what is in the email.

David

worldwatcher,

"No, I didn't even bother to open it. Just immediately deleted it."

Then go to deleted items and retrieve it.

Accusing Online Opinion of letting out emails and accusing the AFA of sending unwanted emails is a serious issue and the AFA treat such accusations seriously.

David

If OLO had had anything to do with it, it would have been a request from David to forward his email to worldwatcher (which obviously wasn't the case). It wouldn't have been an email directly from the AFA. It would have been from Online Opinion forwarding an email address, as Graham will sometimes pass on email addresses if requested (although I've never asked him to do it for me). Usually, this arrangement is agreed to by posters before the request is made.

I would like to say sincerely, a very Merry Christmas to those who follow the Christian tradition and a very Merry Christmyth to those who do not.

Take care all and enjoy the festivities.

David

Belly,

By inference you call me a liar. You can criticise any comments I make, but I really do object to being called a liar. I can live without ugly comments like that. I expected better from Forum members.
You touched a very, very large nerve there. I have always lived by the dictum that one should always tell the truth, even if sometimes the truth hurts. This is what I taught my children too. They were punished for misdeeds, and punished twice as hard for lying to me about them.
Maybe in your world it is unimportant to throw out statements like you have. In my world trashing a person's character is taken very seriously. I joined this Forum solely for discussion and to broaden my sphere of knowledge through the wisdom of others, not for insults.

David, Unfortunately as it turns out it's been completely deleted from my computer. Can't send you something which is now unavailble on my system, and I don't know the contents because I didn't open it. Regardless, my question was whether my e-mail address is publicly available by participating in this Forum, and yes, I have taken Ozpen's suggestion and have asked Graham this.

You have to admit your post, and my comment about my own beliefs has certainly opened vigorous debate on the Forum.

And for me, the comments have been both provocative and enlightening, and at times even insulting, but always interesting, although it is an argument with no possible clear winners or losers.
