What's with all the new christian members?

What's with all the new christian members?
Seriously, there's a new introduction from a christian every time I log on. It seems like there aren't usually so many. Perhaps a christian forum is trying to flood us with its members? Are there just tons of multis?

What say you, christians? Is there some kind of conspiracy here? (Not that I expect you to tell me if there is, lol.)

Atheists- am I wrong? I don't often check the member introductions, aside from during the last few days. Are there always so many Christians joining, or is this weird?

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD

Either a lot of them or one with the same act and a host of proxies.

Our meta description: "Atheist Forums is a website aimed at getting atheists and theists talking about various issues including atheism, theism, god, religion, science, and everything in between." (Bolding mine)

If you don't like the fact that we allow theist members, or the fact that three of our staff are believers (2 deists, one muslim), or that you have to put up with tolerating other people's opinions and beliefs, then kindly log out and never return, because we aren't changing our policy one bit.

It seems as though jesus's army has opened their floodgates, I know. It's good fun, though! It also means that atheism is being seen by more people as a clear threat to their weak and pitiful faith. This is probably a good thing.
I don't mind theists. When they're not being annoying, they're pretty damn amusing. Big Grin

Oh, no. I don't mind, but it seemed like there were more than usual.

One in every three is a Christian in the world. Not surprising at all.

I AM surprised in the sharp number of "authentic" xtians flooding our little neck of the Internet... It's like WE / Atheistforums.org are the only show in town?

I don't see why it needed a thread on the topic. Especially one that was essentially a complaint thread and used the word "conspiracy" in it.

Tiberius, I'm glad to see you are supportive of theists joining and participating. However, I doubt many will participate, because most theists don't appreciate the hostile replies by many of the members here, and of course the oftentimes blasphemous comments are a little hard for most religious people to take.

I'm a bit different.

Nevertheless, I do appreciate your hardline stance in welcoming people of all beliefs.
