G'Day Mihaela and welcome to the forum. If you're going to get into a discussion about evolution, may I suggest that you go to our Evolution and Natural Selection forum and either join in with an existing thread, or start a new thread if there's a particular topic that interests you. But this thread isn't the right place to start this sort of discussion.

Cheers,

Durro

I was directed here by a link on Tim O'Neill's blog. It pointed to the infamous "What can we reasonably infer about the historical Jesus?" thread. Good clean family fun!

He is a member, you have to say -

Why is there no voting option for 'turfed out of RDF Forums by Josh Timonen who posts like a rat fink weasel would do'?


Otherwise you could be warned, suspended, banned or even face excruciating agony for the rest of eternity on the new RDF site.

League of reason, where Hackandslash was posting one great comment after another, then named this forum. I had to check it out.

Hello everyone, I'm a kind of newbie here, I found this site from one of your partner sites, SFN. Actually some long time back I had registered to this forum but now if I use that username it says your account is inactive, I tried to resend the activation link but its not working since the e-mail which I was using was also inactive for a quite some time, anyways good to see you all and excited to learn new things and to do some rebuttal.
I am anti-Semitic, anti-Islamic, anti-Catholic, anti-Sramanic, anti-Hindu and an anti-atheist.

I am an Aryan, an Vajrayana Buddhist, an Valentinian Gnostic, a Saura (worshipper of the Sun God), a Zurvanite Magi and a Neoplatonist.

I don't even recall properly but it must have been link hopping that landed me here.

My story is a little bit different...

I was in class at my school and this guy was (like usual) doing something on his computer, and, well, curiosity got the best of me. I "happened" to look over at the site he was on, and I noticed the banner at the top that said 'Rational Skepticism'. That interested me, since I am an atheist and don't know anyone else who is, and I figured that was what the site was kind of about, so I googled it, looked around a little, and decided to join.

I was googling 'cupping' and it brought me here. I am interested (maybe that should be irritated) by complementary medicine or more specifically the bogus claims made by CM or SCAM or whatever you want to call it.
