Really?
'5.No Advertising
Any advertisements in posts will be removed immediately. If you want to promote a product, service, or website then please contact one of the administrators or moderators by private message first. This also applies to people conducting research, surveys or asking for members to sign petitions or join causes. Whilst most in the community would be glad to help with such projects, we still would like you to get permission from the staff before posting.
◦30/30
In addition to the No Advertising rule, there is also the 30 days and 30 posts requirement. New users must accrue 30 posts and be a member for 30 days before they are allowed to post external content, such as links, images or videos. This is to ensure that advertising is not your sole purpose on this forum. Any posts where the sole intention is to link to external sites/videos may also be removed at the discretion of the staff. Once you have met the 30/30 requirements however these particular rules no longer apply.'
Neener neener.

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Come to that, why should anyone be expected to honour someone else's faith?

I didn't "advertise" anything. I made it VERY clear that the only reason there was a link is because the post would not fit here.
And if you want to discuss my RELIGION, which is the section I posted in, the post is necessary. Because right now none of you have any idea what I practice at all, but are acting like I am somehow ignoring your online practices blatantly. But I never did.
I know you're ignoring anyone who's not a mod. But, you're being delusional if you think what you did wasn't advertising your "ministry." Talk about illusions of grandeur if you think you did break the forum rules when you didn't even read them. Also, I love how you complain about us not knowing what you practice when you don't even introduce yourself before you shill out your school of fairies tales..err, I mean ministry.
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.

It's pretty rude to join a forum and instead of Ingratiating yourself with the general membership and earning the right to advertise and request assistance, link to your site immediately without any prior request to the staff.
It's also against the rules, which means you probably didn't read them. If you've got something to contribute other than wanting people to visit your site and help you do things for it, then by all means stay. If not, you know the way out.
I think it is FAR more rude to troll new people and act like they didn't post in the religion section.
So your response is to argue rules and posting etiquette with a moderator? A person who is here to define and enforce rules and posting etiquette?
FYI, pointing out where you've broken the rules is far from trolling you. Now, either abide by them, or be seen out. Your choice. This is not a debate. You will comply.

Keep that attitude, and your time here will not end well - and it'll be very short as well.

Is this how you intend to run your ministry, where anyone who questions you gets snapped at? Because if your intent was to come here and represent yourself and what you're about, acting like a petulant child when it's quite rightly pointed out to you that you broke our rule about links and that it's something of a social faux pas to come into a new community and just start talking without introducing youself probably isn't going to give us a glowing view of your ministry.

Awwwwww.....
And I was growing to LOVE, the bizarre, RANDOM-ish, sort of capitalization, shouting STUFF.
It is SO endearing! or perhaps, it IS so endearing.
Bye Elvis! Hope the afterlife is all it's cracked UP to BE!

I do that. For stress. How do MOST people stress their words through text? Like this? Or like this? How about this? Or maybe even ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!
