I don't have any suggestions on where else to look for what you want in a website, however I wanted to give my opinion on the "other" subject...

I agree (and may get banned for saying this...but) - it's difficult to post a hot-topic opinion on here without it getting locked or banned etc. Not fair in my opinion, but that's the rules. As long as you are agreeing with the poster, than all is well....but as soon as there is a hot disagreement, asta-la-vista to you! Wrong!
I have formed this opinion by seeing who gets banned and who doesn't.
Shame to you, the overly-sensitive-to-others-opinions people.

I don't have an opinion on your state of being/believing as I am one of those that believes in God - BUT, having said that, I absolutely don't believe in controlling others opinions and trying to get those banned and stopped that don't believe exactly like me. Whether that be through my blog, or my posts to threads etc.

I hope you find what you are looking for, or, that you can post here without being "controlled" by the majority. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I am in the same boat as you Sweety. I get naucious at times when I read posts from those who have a strong faith in God etc. I dont criticize them & I have yet to be personally criticized for not being a follower.

There are other sites tho I have to say so far this has the most to offer. Not just within the members, but the sponsors that are currently on as well as what will be coming in the near future.

Try <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.mycysticfibrosis.com
">http://www.mycysticfibrosis.com
</a>
There are a few others, but I will have to look them up.

I am sorry that you are only seeing this part of our forum here. We have issues at times, but for the most part I think we are evenly divided & I am not aware of anyone pushing their religious beliefs onto others. They might post a response that has a flare of their beliefs in it, but quite honestly that is a part of them.

Someone saying I am sending prayers to you can be taken lightly or quite in depth depending on your beliefs. If you take it literally & that offends you then I would think work on things within yourself.

If there is an actual issue that arose in which someone overstepped their bounds regarding their views (outside of the religious/prayer sections designated for that) then that is wrong.

BTW anything that has been shut down is not just because of the topic, but sometimes even when a thread is going very well on a touchy subject....its best to call it quits while ahead of the game.

Please know that you have lots of people with your view points, but if you hadnt posted this message, we wouldnt know that you didnt know that and we couldnt speak up.

HUGS

another atheist saying hi here.
there are so many types of atheism (something deists don't seem to realize).
I guess I am an existentialist humanist -- or maybe a nontheist Quaker.
I wouldn't say you need a different place at least I haven't found it necessary.
I just post merrily away and take the responses as what they are from whom they are.


Living with a clear view that the only life each of us gets is the one we are living right now here on earth - and then making ethical choices based on that -- is what it's about for me. I am always interested in hearing about someone's journey in that regard.

I don't know any sites to visit either as I just happened on this one. But in response to others being very religious, I noticed that too. I try to avoid those posts and just stick with the rest. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs and some people seem to forget that sometimes. Drives me crazy but oh well!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Have you tried googling other forums? There might be some leads there. Other than that I have no ideas! Sorry I couldn't help much <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">
