You mean anti Christian forum. Most of the posts around here I would classify as anti Christian. Even many of those who claim to be Christian reject traditional Christian beliefs.

That aside, did you have anything to say that was actually relevant to the topic?
@caesar-salad saidIn years past, there quite vibrant discussions on spiritual topics in non-Christian contexts. Some of the posters to those discussions are still RHP members but do not post so often anymore; others have stopped posting to SF or stopped posting altogether.
If this actually were a Spirituality forum instead of seemingly a Christianity-specific forum, what sort of topics would be discussed?

@caesar-salad saidFunny how some people believe they have the right to tell others what discussions they can and cannot have.

@caesar-salad saidAll discussion on spirituality ends up coming back to the theological concepts of the spiritual, and it's just a fact that most people are not New Agers who attempt to transcend the religious to specifically focus on the "spiritual."

It's also a fact that a lot of the posters here who are very active tend to be atheist and atheists often fixate on examples of spirituality that they dislike, which seem to invariably be about "organized religion" or what have you.

@philokalia saidThank you, @philokalia. That makes sense.

@caesar-salad saidOver the years I have been here, very generally speaking, I'd say prominent theist posters have mostly wanted to talk only about the doctrines of their religion, whereas prominent atheist posters have been interested in discussing spirituality in a broader way ~ as well as topics related to spirituality ~ or about the application or implications of religious doctrine.
