The trouble is that I find the rest of your conversations extremely interesting...I do not want to put you on ignore, nor do I want to put anyone else on ignore(I miss out on too many ideas), on the other hand I am not interested in hearing about anyones religious views nor do I wish to foist any of my PRIVATE religious views on others.....hence the attempt to organise a forum for those who feel the need to preach or converse with others with the same leanings.

And let us just assume that some of us get sick and tired of hearing about everyone else's religious opinions..........what don't you want your own space to cuddle you fellow believers on. You haven't heard shiit about my religious beliefs until you chose to insult anyone and everyone who has any belief. Actually I have my own religious beliefs, and I do not share them with anyone as they are mine.......and you are right, I do not want to hear of your religious beliefs....hence the move to try to get you your own touchy-feely forum. Good,good...keep it at the top. Brilliant strategy, absolutely brilliant. In an effort to force the silence of anyone with religious beliefs you choose to blanket insult us all. Is that how it's done down unda'?

Anybody here see " The Apostle " with Robert Duvall ? Remember the scene where the character played by Billy Bob Thornton brought his bulldozer down to level the church ? Remember what happened ?
Maybe the same dynamic here !

PLEASE read my posts entirely and not just take the little pieces that you feel the need to be annoyed with........I AM TRYING TO GET YOU YOUR OWN FORUM TO ESPOUSE YOUR IDEAS ON....or is it that you could not attract enough posters to your last forum and you are worried about being on your own.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

James. Then I guess you have to take the bad along with the good, just like you would if we were talking in real life. There's a bunch of stuff I have absolutely no interest in (football, for instance), but I wouldn't suggest that people not talk about it here. There are those for whom football is a favorite topic. I've learned that life doesn't revolve around me. Neither does the Campfire. Penny

Penny, religion is intensely private, and that is where it should stay.

Penny, religion is intensely private, and that is where it should stay. I disagree. If you want it to stay private for you, that is fine. I would not try to make someone talk about something they were uncomfortable discussing. But as I said before, what I believe (and whose I am) defines who I am. If you cut that out of me, I'm not me any more. I won't force you to read what I write... that's always your choice. But I will fight for the freedom to write it... Penny

I'll promise to never have JSTUART in the topic of a thread, hence I'll not be preaching to ewe. Paranoid?
