Atheists - Do you know why Eskimo Joe is gone?

One too many violations? No one here with a sense of humor? I don't know. But Eskimo Joe is gone, suspended and removed from the site, and I'm not happy about it...

He asked me to pass along a final message to those who knew him, befriended him, and read his many posts. May his memory live on!

From the Eskimo –

“Mourn not, my friends, for my voice will not be silenced so easily. Many Eskimos will rise and take my place, and our truths will be heard from the frozen tundra to the holy lands. And I’m not gone forever. No, whenever they's a fight so hungry people can’t eat, I'll be there. Whenever they's a yahoo cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there . . . . I'll be in the way guys yell when they're mad because some fundie told ‘em they’s goin’ to hell. An'-I'll be in the way kids laugh when they're told that god loves ‘em and they finally realize there ain’t no god a’tall. And when the R & S category gets its share of folks that’s honest and true and that don’t live in fear and ignorance, the ol’ Eskimo’ll be there.”

Rest in Peace, Eskimo Joe. We will continue your work. Though your voice will be missed.
