Comparative Religions 101 Guidelines
Welcome to Comp Religions, this is where the sights and sounds of the many world religions come together in a big World's Fair type atmosphere, without those delicious funnel cakes.
World Religions is a theist only type place, but that does not exclude certain religionists who practice non-theistic faiths ala Buddhism. If you are not sure, ask a moderator.
This is not a place where we argue the existence / non-existence of God.
And as usual, the forum rules apply.

"world religions" is the main forum of which Comparative Religions is a sub forum.
The main issue is you are not a theist. AND you were arguing against the belief in God. And now you are arguing with moderation.

It then lists the sub fora. There is no mention of Theists Only. Other boards do carry that injunction [e.g. Christians only or Atheists only]
Furthermore, given that your site is modelled on a "university" is it not possible to discuss Comparative Religion in a non religious manner here? It is done so quite successfully in real academia without the need for any theistic overtones on the part of those thus engaged."It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so."

Theists are allowed in General Theistics as long as the discussion remains civil (light debate only)

I will cease posting here but as your site is premised on a university I would point out that in a real university faculty the study of comparative religion is somewhat more liberal, detailed, and wide ranging."It ain't necessarily so

Originally posted by Hypatia_Alexandria View PostI think someone needs to make that clear on this section. It is less than transparent and if other boards on your site can make their position clear I would suggest it can also be done here.

You do realise your gospels are not verbatim reports of events, don't you? No one was following Jesus around with a cellphone or tape recorder recording his every word. These sacred biographies were all written decades after the events they purport to recount.

Repetition of previous senseless "answers" makes you even MORE illogical and nonsensical, hakeem.
It does make you sound like a parrot with no intelligence and increases your comical performance which has some amusing value. LOL!!
