It's not just theology. It's not high society or high academe. It's a place to talk, question, argue, wax poetically, or angrily, about God.

There doesn't seem to be a very general place to do this on Poal. Of course, there's s/Theology, but I don't want this place to be limited to only theology.

I'm interested in the intersection between our Western culture, the Christian faith, and the attack on it. I want people to get engaged with the spiritual significance of this, and find that this is a place to question God, or proclaim your faith, or talk about how faith and virtue are improving your life, or cry out in desperation because your life feels like it's Hell.

What it isn't is just another place to post about Jews or politics. If you want to bring up the JQ or current political events, you need to find a way to make it relevant to God and the spiritual battle.

If you aren't a Christian and you want to have discussions about how your beliefs relate to Christianity? By all means, bring it into the fray.

If you are an atheist or agnostic and you have legitimate questions, doubts, concerns...put them on the table. All that we ask is you don't be an ass. Arguments are fun if you agree on the terms and respect them.

If you've got things going on in your life, and you wonder if a Christian perspective might be interesting, ask it. If you want to talk about the end of the world, go for it. Just remember what we're there for.

Good.

I want that there. Please don't censor yourself at all. I already know you're smart and that your contributions would be thoughtful and worth it to hear.

I don't mind some arguing at all, as long as people approach it with good faith and good humor.

The JQ is also on the table - I'd just rather it stay focused on the way that it is subverting the spiritual structure of the West. As an atheist, maybe you sense it as a subversion of more secular moral structures and history...that's fine too. What I wanted to avoid was a bunch of frivolous memes. That's for /whatever.

I barely see a difference between religious and secular moral structures. People are basically naturally religious and its impossible to stop them from behaving in religious ways. I still say Jesus Christ all the time. God damn jew! Just kidding. But not the part about saying JC. I do.

If I am honest, I still say it too, per force of habit. I am trying to ditch it.

But you are a christian, right? It makes sense why you say it. Why am I saying it?
