I think even the theist members here would agree that generally we're pretty liberal when it comes to members.

I think that it was Drich who said that he had been kicked off of other forums. This does seem to be a pretty open forum which is great. It would be boring to only have discussions with people who agreed on most things.

Well, if you pm the Admins, maybe they make an exception for you. But the responses should not be a debate and not go on for more than 2 pages, or atheist Jesus is sad.

Well holding silly views isn't against the rules after all, and neither should it be. First and foremost we're here to discuss.

We won't ever stifle that unless it contravenes our (very liberal) rules.

Sure, I have no problem with it either. I think the rules here are great Smile I live in hope that one day a little bit of critical thinking will rub off on them.

I've always been used to forums before where I couldn't even say f*** without someone editing it. Hey what? Who the f*** did that you s***? I can't even say s***? Oh just ***%#!!$€ will you.

RE: Topics that can not be discussed...
Another forbidden topic on many Christian forums is universalism (the idea that everybody goes to heaven). CARM bans universalists from their forums. There are other pages on their site talking about the evils of universalism.
This fear of universalism speaks volumes about the psychology of Christianity IMO.

RE: Topics that can not be discussed...
Yeah, I've heard about getting banned just for saying you're an atheist. How very little "confidence" they have in their "faith" if they think it will disintegrate just by sharing a forum with someone who doesn't buy into their cult.

^which is funny isn't there something that is apart of their faith to lead the non believers to god well i guess they are failing at that.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.

The threads degenerate quickly and NOTHING is ever decided.

If that were any criteria to go by, half the shit we discuss here would be banned.
