Rules and Guidelines
NON-RELIGIOUS PEOPLE & ATHEISTS
- Religious people do not, by default, arrive at their position via parental or societal indoctrination. Many arrive by choice.
- At that, most religious people do not hold their opinions "blindly." Do not assume that they do.
- In addition to that, do not assume that one's religious beliefs have only been objectively examined once they have been discarded.
- If you must argue that religion "is a form of control," please provide explanatory material as to whom is controlling everyone, and to what end.
RELIGIOUS PEOPLE
- Do not assume that atheists are ignorant. Just as you have arrived at your position after a lifetime of analysis and thought, so too have they.
- If there is an aspect of your doctrine on which you are not clear, attempt to research it. Do not claim to know any more than you actually do.
- We want to hear from people of all faiths. Consider using the flair set describing your denomination so everyone knows where you're coming from. If your particular faith isn't listed in the flair set, click "Request a new flair" on the right-sidebar and follow the simple instructions.
- Daily devotionals are nice, but this isn't really the proper forum for them.
EVERYONE
- DO NOT TROLL. If you see a situation in which you feel your input is necessary, by all means post. However, do not post simply to bug people.
- Please be sure to post links and self posts that are in English.
- Attempt to remain civil, insofar as the combination of anonymity and an audience will allow this.
- No blogspam. Whether it's your own blog or someone else's, keep posts/links from it to once every ten days.
- No advertising. Whether it's an organization, a product, a service, etc...these posts will be removed, and user banned.
- No memes, image macros, or comics. Submissions should be directly related to religious issues, and be inviting for discussion and/or debate. They may be in reference to specific faith(s), or faith in general.
- No drama about other subreddits or redditors here or elsewhere...for example, "Look at what the mods at (insert subreddit here) deleted!" or "This redditor at (insert subreddit here) is a joke!".
- If you're a student and would like to post a poll or questionnaire for research, you're welcome to. Just be sure to post the results when you're finished...we're curious.
- If all or most of your submissions/comments attack religion or specific faith, whether you're an atheist or not, they will be removed and the user banned.
- If you want to convince someone that you are right, insulting them right off the bat will not help you. Example: "You religious sheep are just slaves to a stupid book." reddiquette ...Learn it, live it, love it.
- If you see inappropriate conduct/language/subject matter, report/message the mods about it. Don't fan the flames.
Warnings and bans are at moderator discretion. In most cases, we will issue one warning prior to banning a user. If you believe you've been unfairly warned or banned, send a message to the mods, and we'll review it.
Community feedback is always welcome.
