Everybody has the right to believe in something or no. It depends of each one!

Be what YOU want to be and RESPECT what I want to be, ok!

Have a nice day!

Hi Moony. I can understand your frustration about posts on religion if you don't really like reading about it, but there seem to be lots of other topics and it's really very easy for you to read and reply to those you like and ignore those you don't.

No one is forcing you to read something you don't wish to, but you seem to want everyone to share your opinion. 

Here's another deal. I will RESPECT what you want to be and your right to read what you want if you RESPECT my right to do the same.

How about it?

 Cheers

I agree with you. "Everybody does want to do!" But it is too boring often see posts about Islam, don't you think.

I have nothing against the Muslim people, but other want to make a polemic, a circus, it seems.

Good points Mark, but I think you could easily say the same about adherents to most religions in a place like ebaby. People don't come her primarily to speak about religion (though there seem to be exceptions) but to speak about and use English. Therefore we wouldn´t expect a high percentage of religious scholars or even people like yourself who have done at least a little bit of study on the subject. 

I´ve known many Christians who can offer little other than ¨because god said so¨or ït´s in the bible¨when asked about tenets of their religion. I´m not surprised to see the same from Muslims. Maybe it{s a sad state when a non-beleiver knows more about your religion´s history than you do. 

I would still like to respond to the original criticism of too many posts about religion and about Islam in particular by noting that there seems to be easily at least 20 non religious threads for every religious one. (based on a thouroughly unscientific study consisting of my vague impressions and unreliable memory only)

Kanaobi,  I don't think that wisdom should be a pre-requisite for exercising free speech.

Sometimes we need the "moron perspective" just to show us how right we are ;)

Of course, since ebaby is a private company, they can make any rules they like about what can be posted, and we have the choice to use the service or not, but I don't think it would be a good idea. I can say that if they said tomorrow that posts about religion were prohibited, I would reconsider my membership. 

Please thank your fiance for his service, and wherever he is, I hope that he comes home safely to you.

Mark, you are right that you don't see much Christian proselytizing here. Maybe the concept of jihad also extends to websites?
