NO WAY! I would NEVER abolish the Religion Forum, as its moderation is MUCH BETTER than any of the other forums on Free Republic.
I said upthread you are a moon bat. Now I say you’re a BROWN NOSING moon bat.
Sorry, but the RM is the most capricious and unfair of all the mods.
I’m with you on not doing away with the Religion Forum.
I find it interesting and I learn from it. I may not agree with some of the posters but that’s ok.
For example;
http://www.gnosis.org/gnintro.htm
“Like Buddhism, Gnosticism begins with the fundamental recognition that earthly life is filled with suffering. In order to nourish themselves, all forms of life consume each other, thereby visiting pain, fear, and death upon one another (even herbivorous animals live by destroying the life of plants). ....
Many religions advocate that humans are to be blamed for the imperfections of the world. Supporting this view, they interpret the Genesis myth as declaring that transgressions committed by the first human pair brought about a “fall” of creation resulting in the present corrupt state of the world. Gnostics respond that this interpretation of the myth is false. The blame for the world’s failings lies not with humans, but with the creator. Since — especially in the monotheistic religions — the creator is God, this Gnostic position appears blasphemous, and is often viewed with dismay even by non-believers.”
That was interesting.
