Hey I'm dave.. I'm a christian ann I needed a place to ask questions and discuss various religious beliefs. I won't try and convert anyone, just looking for intillegent discussion and a place that won't boot me for expressing my views and asking others questions.

Hello Dave,

Welcome to the forums.

Then why register at a place where the people have no religious belief? Do you discuss hair colours on a forum for bald men too?

Good, saves you a lot of time that way. Smile

As long as you play by the rules, we will certainly do the same.

Please excuse my tone of the post, but this kind of introduction is not the first one I've read so I am a bit skeptic on your motivation. But I am always happy to be proven wrong.
Best regards,
Leo van Miert

Welcome to the forums! The forums was st up specifically for conversations between theists and atheists, so you've found a great place.

As long as you follow the rules, you'll do fine. We've had our fair share of intelligent theists here, and we welcome such debate.

Welcome tacky. This is certainly the place to be free to discuss openly with non theists about religious beliefs - they love it! Big Grin There's a bevvy of filled wheelbarrows of rhetoric just out back ...but mainly AF does try to be fair and is the best of it's ilk I've found. Heart

Welcome to AF. Can't wait to hear what you have to say, I just hope you can take a lashing. LOL
