Combining Other Religion and Religious Discussion Sections

Eric · 10-11-2008, 01:32 PM

I've received several PMs from people who've been critical of the fact this site was trying to specify which belief systems could be counted as Christian or not based on the definitions I included for these sections:

The purpose of this site is to praise Jesus and give glory to God.

So rather than try and define who is and isn't Christian myself, I've combined the sections. Users are free to discuss those distinctions in the new section of course, I just didn't want to make it appear that the official purpose of this site was to promote anything other than Christ.

I also just removed the "Jesus is my Higher Power" substance abuse etc. recovery section, it was still unused. I can put it back in the future if anyone wants one.

Thank you

I love how you are managing these forums Eric. They are very dynamic now, if something isnt getting used, its removed, and other sections are added to see if it sparks interest.

Very cool way to manage forums is all I'm saying, keeps things from getting stale.

Thank you. All we need now are more users. I built this site on a powerful server with unlimited bandwidth, we could handle super site traffic no problem. The Lord will provide, but I'd greatly appreciate if everyone could help spread the word about this site where possible.

Thank you
