The Time Cube website was written in an angry and hateful voice. On his site, Ray said that not believing in Time Cube would be "stupid and evil". Some of the comments were [[racism|racist]] and discriminatory, especially against black people and [[Judaism|Jews]]. There were also many comments against [[homosexuality|gay]] people. Many people found the site to be difficult to understand.
