forum disappear since now if one picks a religion on your profile it creates that specific forum for you to participate in?
Please explain your reasons why it should or shouldn't remain. |

Well, people come here to discuss different viewpoints, don't they? That sometimes it just runs away with some, well, sh1t happens. It is not the purpose of a dating site to divide people into this, that, or the other and keep them apart, now, is it?

I don't care either way
they broke up the religion forum in an attempt to put a stop to all these "my God (or no God) is better than your God" arguments and it didnt really work antiChristians and Atheists still seek out the Christian threads to debunk them and the Christians still seek out the antiChristian and atheist threads to proselytize |

I'd like to see the GRC forum stay. I think of the religion-specific forums as being places where like minded people can discuss their common interest. But to me, the GRC forum is a place where people with diverse religious views can discuss their different viewpoints and learn from each other. Yes, of course there is debate - some of it quite heated - and some downright vitreolic. But I don't think that removing the GRC forum would accomplish anything to change or inhibit that. I think all it would do would be to change where it would take place. Most likely, it would just move over to the Science and Philosophy forum - which gets heated enough as it is.

It makes no difference to me one way or the other.
Now that we have truly sacred space in specific forums I perfer to post there. It's far more peaceful. Usually when I come here, I'm almost sorry I did anyway. |

forum disappear since now if one picks a religion on your profile it creates that specific forum for you to participate in? Please explain your reasons why it should or shouldn't remain. Because some people like to discuss religion with people of OTHER religions. Rather than just discussing with fellow believers of whatever... |

But then where would you put the Anti-christian threads? "Eljay" which Anti-Christians are you referring to ...The Christians are even Anti-ing among themselves ... I'm surprise to hear that some do not believe that Adam and Eve existed and that parts of the bible are not literal but metaphoric ... God said "Thou Shalt Not Kill" but some Christians even claim that God said that it's ok to kill as long as you don't murder who you kill ..which is a tad bit hard to do one without doing the other so now when someone say Anti-Christians ...they need to be more specific ..are they referring to Christians or Heretics |

Well it's actually more pleasant & civil in CS..not like here with all the nonsense people post.
There would be no need for the seperation if it weren't for those who just want to argue with others for sharing their faith. I think it's a great thing...unfortunately those who want to have someone to fight with are the only ones that aren't happy about it (I suppose.) |

I hope they keep it.
