It is a religious discussion forum, so one can imagine the bias leans more one way than the other.
I recently posted the following:
Quote:Christ never existed as I do. He was a fairy tale invented by persecuted people during Roman times.
However, I still find it sad that those who profess to follow such a prolific literary character are quite un-Christ-like in how they treat others.
And I received a notification that my post was moderated due to what they consider proselytization.
Their rules:
Quote:8. Preaching/Proselytizing
Creating (or linking to) content intended to convert/recruit others to your religion, spirituality, sect/denomination, or lack thereof is not permitted. Similarly, attempting to convert others away from their religion, spiritual convictions, or sect/denomination will also be considered a form of preaching. Stating opinions as a definitive matter of fact (i.e., without "I believe/feel/think" language, and/or without references) may be moderated as preaching.
Please take a moment to read through this rule, as we will expect you to abide by this rule in the future. If you have any questions about the forum rules or staff actions, please create a thread in the Site Feedback forum. Threads you create there are visible only to yourself and the staff team, so we can discuss things confidentially.
Am I missing something here, or am I correct in my assessment that they are full of shit?
Yes. You’re missing something here—it’s not just them, it’s pretty much all religious places of discussion that are hypocritical and full of shit.
