[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about one of the following forum titles:

- Religion and its Discontents (thanks, Freud)

- Humanism

- Philosophy

- Toddlers Throwing Things (kidding, sort of)

I’m religious. I just feel so sorry for the poor schmucks who turn up there and want to actually, you know, discuss faith. Not asking for censorship, just accurate labeling.[/quote]

Serious question because I am honestly stumped...what discussion of faith has been derailed?

Yeah, I’ve seen the “he is risen” and “I love god” but those weren’t necessarily inviting discussion, they were statements. As “religion” and “faith” themselves are broad topics, I’m curious what specifically you’d come here to discuss.

14:55 right above is an excellent example of pot stirring and derailment. On a thread about forum names, 14:55 is trying to rescucitate the the ribs thread, whatever that was. [/quote]

NP. Nice try, but 14:55 wasn't the one who resuscitated the ribs thread but the poster to whom she was responding. That poster was complaining about "hate" and mockery on the forum. I'm an occasional poster on that forum and my sense is like the PP who asked about derailment. I think the believers claiming hate, derailment, mockery and overall prejudice are hyper-sensitive. More so than posters on the other boards.[/quote]
