Hey, gg.
Could I suggest that Tyler's post be re-re-directed to Social? Or maybe, Tyler, you could just post the question at Social yourself?
When Bob set up the Faith board, he explicitly said it was NOT for atheists to discuss their atheism. “Agnosticism and atheism are considered not to be supportive...” I cannot get my mind around Bob's thinking in this area, but the rules that are in place severely restrict the kinds of responses that can be made to Tyler's question. Some might even think replying to it in the negative would not be civil; the archive debates on this topic suggest that people would draw that conclusion.
More importantly, since atheists don't hang out at Faith, as a *poll*, Tyler's post will not get an accurate sampling of the sort of information about Babblers he was asking for if it is conducted at Faith.
Thanks for hearing me out. :-)
