I think you're both wrong and I implore you to go fornicate with yourselves! That's a button I'd like to see!

LOL! I've been banned from nearly every Christian forum I have ever posted on, but never for posting something so mundane and polite.

One time, when I was younger and stupider, I was kicked from an IRC channel by a bunch of New Zealanders because I went in there like an idiot to start a flame war.

How was I supposed to know that #christchurch is an actual city??? /

I know for a fact that this forum at Reasonable Faith is great. We have a number of highly intelligent atheists who post frequently. It's a simple, yet effective layout. I highly recommend it.

We discuss things from the philosophy of mind to evolutionary theory.(most of the Christians there affirm some sort of evolutionism)

'Contrariwise,' continued Tweedledee, 'if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic." ~Tweedledum and Tweedledee discussing the finer points of logic

Ha I might just try signing up to one and see what happens Big Grin See how long it takes me to get banned without what they would consider trolling. Yeah this place does seem more lenient. I was just looking on the front page of one of their forums and there was a music section and there was no section for my favourite genre rock/metal guess they think its "evil" or "satanic".

What's the point of going on a forum if there is no debate and everyone just agrees with eachother. Very little can be learned that way.

I just signed up on your recommendation but it seems like a ghost town, at least in the atheist ghetto portion of town. I couldn't figure out how to create a thread and couldn't find any lively discussion on any current thread there. It looks pretty restrained and confining for atheists, not really an open forum is it?

See what I mean?

Before kudos was invented... me and evie could go on for some 50 posts that essentially were 'yes' 'no' 'yes' 'no', but at least we usually phrased it a little differently each time. Dodgy

I'm so happy that kudos is around. Even if it was a witch's idea Smile

Not everyone values learning as much as you or I do Sleepy
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

The "Choose Your Own Topic" subforum is where all the action is. It is very open to thoughtful people.

I'm an atheist and I have one of the largest post counts there.

Yes. My apologies, whateverist. Wonderer is correct.
