I would like some clarification as to the truth of the rules and situation here on the FR. Several times over the last few years it has been mandated by certain users that a prerequisite for participating here, conversing here, or donating here is mandated that you must first be a White Puritan Christian. No exceptions or you are considered a Troll. You must believe what they believe exactly or you should hit the highway.
Anyone else conservative or not, are to be considered as just trolls and should excommunicate themselves and leave. This is an important clarification. Because if the owner Jim feels that only Christians of a certain Christian sect are allowed equal respect here or not. That certain one sect needs to be shared. Those who are not of that particular sect deserve the right to know that their participation and donations are not actually appreciated.
Is see animosity between even sects of Christianity battling each other here. Hate for Mormons, Hate for Catholics from Christians, Hate for Christians from Catholics, God forbid anyone who comes here and is honest and says they are an Orthodox Christian from ETHIOPIA! So what is it? Is this a domain site rule and mandate or not? Those of us who believe in the first amendment and freedom of speech and religion would like to know what the parameters are. What sect exactly is a prerequisite to participate here?
Are non Christians allowed here at all? Can one believe in God without belonging to a formal religious sect? Are any other faiths allowed based on freedom of religion? Please make this very clear, because if there is an underlying prerequisite and unwritten rule, there are many of us here who are not quite pure Bible thumping (perfect mandated sect) conservatives and would really like to know. Is our own Constitutional right to believe as we like respected here or not?
It is important to know... If those who do not fit the "exact parameters" judged as a prerequisite mandate are not appreciated and not equally respected or not. What are these please? Do these prerequisite mandates even exist here? In this fight for our country is it wise to throw the baby out with the bath water? But this baby wants to know if my patriotism and efforts to create dialog, discussion, and traffic as a conservative which equate to revenue are appreciated or not... No matter what my stance on faith might be.
Is the 1st respected here or not? If not what are the restrictive parameters limited to as a private domain? If only White Puritan Christians are allowed here then it needs to shared what sect exactly of hundreds??? A curious mind would like to know...
Mistaking opinion for hate. This is known as, and has operated as a Conservative site since 1996. If every opinion seems like hate to you, you are in the wrong place. The hate is coming from the left.
No one knows anybody’s personal information here unless it is volunteered, and no one asks for/requires it. I have never been asked to provide personal information.
“white”? I can smell a disease.
I’ve been here since May 1998, and I have no idea what you are talking about.
Oh, for Pete’s sake. FR has LOTS of Jewish members ........... And Black people........who are very much part of the community.
Why don’t you post some proof of your accusations, so we can see what we’ve been missing all these years.
Of course it is not... All good in the support of the 1st amendment. But anything other is to be considered as a hated cult?
Not the point. The point is DO WE BELIEVE IN FREEDOM OF REGION HERE OR NOT???
Puritans are Calvinists and I'm a Wesleyan, but no one here has ever objected.
you’re fn nuts its open to all but disrupting trolls...20 plus years here.
... you’re a ... Wesleyan..?..
.. I’ll be right back...
Looking through your most recent posts I see you got into an argument over religion. You do not have to respond, you know. But if you choose to get into an argument, no one is necessarily going to step in and make you feel better. This isn’t Twitter.
Anyway, there are people of all kinds of religious beliefs here. Yes, it leans toward Protestantism since this is an American right-wing site.
As for white, yes, most of the people here are white for similar reasons. But all shades are welcome. If you see something that crosses the line into real racism, there is a “report abuse” button. But if you just want to whine about people not kissing your butt, it’s probably not the site for you.
You’ve been here five years and you still don’t get it?
Really?
WTF? I’ve never had a problem. Only bully I’ve seen is one guy and his partner who flame people for posting to blogs and love snarkily correct those who don’t spell good or right well.
Bait set. Let’s see if they bite.
I know of some atheists posters on FR and they have done so for many, many years. Others have posted of their non-white heritage and I have not seen them rejected.
There are all kinds here. If some are getting under your skin, just take a few days away from this place and come back later.
Let's get 'em, boys! 🤣🤣🤣
No decoder ring for you!
I sacrifice kittens to the Elder Gods and nobody seems to object.
I also believe in Freedom of Religion. 🤣
I’m Catholic and I’ve been here since April 1998.
