"Tiassa at Sciforums" - Three acts and an epilogue for the Haters
Act I - Tiassa receives criticism from Christians for not being Christian
Act II - Atheists criticize Tiassa for not being Atheistic enough; ironically, several people accuse Tiassa of Christianity.
Act III - Amid a predictable chatter of divisive blather, Tiassa is criticized by Westerners for his failure to hate Muslims for no good reason.
Epilogue - Haven't you people learned? I'm not your Faustus. I won't sign on. I don't believe in your hatred. So long as you choose the more limited path, you will run out of options in advocacy of your beliefs long before I will. In the name of mercy, I ask you to think twice before asking me to hate another for no good reason: After a while, it is just flat out disturbing to have to knock you around like that. I feel like I'm beating cripples, or perhaps children with severe learning disorders.
Strap some more cheap rhetoric to your chest and bring your fanaticism if you wish. But pause before you do to think about what's really important to you, and whether or not you're working against it.
