I wouldn't worry about it. There are people on every forum that claim to know it all...the key word is "claim". Things happen to tegus no matter how careful you are with your care.

As far as the devil girl thing, explain to the person that the "devil" doesn't appear anywhere in the Old Testament and very little in the New. The reference to 666 is not three sixes in a row. It is the number six hundred sixty and six. I have read the bible from a historical and archiological view point much more than 98 percent of Christians and I am not one. Just laugh at their ignorance.
This is a friendly place along with the other Tegu site. You will find a ton of help and friendly people on both.

Im sorry if I offended reptilecrazy666, i was making light of a previous post that found youre username disconcerting.
Maybe you really like 6's its not my place to assume, and f youre into Satan - thats cool too, this Amerca - land of McDonalds and the free.
Again, sorry I offended or was taken out of context, as I said, I thought the picture was cute and Anubis is a great looking Tegu.
Congratulations on your edition, and welcome to the forum.

Sometimes people may see something and it startles them and they react. I can't speak for other people, but I imagine that it causes them to get caught off guard and say things that they usually don't. I can say that I don't usually go to an Internet forum looking for respect...due to the nature of the Internet, but neither would I want to be pounced. Also, there are certain triggers that are going to cause people to react...drug references, goth references, the number 666, sex. These are generally the type of things that cause emotions to flare. That's just an objective observation of people... nothing more, nothing less. :)

I have a Master's degree from a Christian seminary, half in education and half in theology. I make it a point never to discuss money, politics, and religion at the dinner table or on Internet forums, lol. Again, I'm sorry that you were greeted with rude manners and I do hope you stick around and have a more favorable experience. The forum is a great place to talk about tegus and there are many friendly people.

People can't get along with everyone, ESPECIALLY on the internet. I wouldn't take something one person said and assume we are all rude. And someone is always going to have something negative to say to be honest. I have found this forum to be full of 99% respectful, friendly, helpful people unlike in other websites where people literally are trying to harass you in so many ways that don't even have to do with the subject at hand. There is a lot of helpful information on this website and even if you don't want to post a thread because you fear a negative comment may arise, I'd still recommend looking up useful information here.
