you must be new here.
RELIGION boards have been requested for the past 10 years or more here. Each time they have been denied.
NO RELIGIOUS TOPICS ARE ALLOWED HERE ANYMORE. PERIOD!

Plenty of Christians who identify as liberals
Real Christians don't celebrate abortion nor the hoax trans movement well at least the ones that follow the Bible. I'm not saying this is the way it should be I'm just giving an opinion based off of growing up in conservative South Carolina.

They certainly are. And these preachers will laugh in their faces and talk about how many chandeliers are in their mansion and how many private jets they have. And the congratulation will just smile and open their wallets again. Pat Robertson even suggested getting a home equity loan so people could send him more money.

But is this the right forum?
The rules around here are very clear but they are almost never enforced. The rules Prohibit threads and conversations that center on the topic of Religion.

Fat Bastard: yes, I agree with this rule.

The conservative side is based off of Christian morality. Which is what made the country great. Denying the religious aspect of Conservatism would be denying the movement itself.
I disagree with this, as do many others. The main reason for my disagreement is based on the fact that there are so very many "Christians" who are very Leftist, Progressive and so forth.
It's IMHO lazy and inaccurate to argue that we should allow Religion conversations because the American Constitutional Conservative political movement is based on Religion or Christianity. So, this should not be the "shoe horn" that allows Religion and Bible Preaching to thrive on the PT and the OT.
We should have a Religion Board OR failing that enforce the rules against Religious posts. We should stop this strange hybrid of allowing Religious threads and conversations at times to thrive, but at other times they are shut down.
That's my 2 cents.

well you can be fiscally leftwing to an extent without stealing but you can only be so socially left wing until you are not a christian anymore.
this relates to any sickos siding with the groomer party/trans party. Look at all these revised made up churches that wanted to re write the rules because they did not want to follow rules and wanted to make up their own scripture and traditions. all the ones openly ordaining and marrying homosexuals.
also the church nor scripture tells you what ecomomic governmental system to run nor do they tell you to depend on government. but many preacha nd teach this.

I agree with this but only to an extent.
Our religious values should govern us where laws cannot and should not.
Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.

No, the inherent risk taking of those who sailed off from countries like Italy, Germany, Hungary, Russia, England, North Africa, and Asia, etc. is what made America great. Religion was not the source of the success, willingness to take risks was at the core.
Creating a religion forum is going to attract the lefties that just hate all of you Catholics and other Christians to a greater degree. At this point, Political talk requires some level of attention to generate anti-Christian posts, whereas anti-Semitism is pretty easy to find in most topics.
Do you want that directed at you, because you make yourselves easier to find? You could always just go to one of the many, many Christian boards like this to live in the echo chamber you desire.

I just find it exceptionally fascinating that people here believe the church would never lie to them and that their religious texts are 100% true and unadulterated.

Al Sharpton is a false prophet.

Do you just repeat everything your pastor tells you? I'm talking about regular people, not FDR, LBJ, Tojo, Stalin, Hitler, but regular people who want to leave better for their kids.
Oh, you forgot a bunch of American government officials that were Christian screwed tens of thousands of Jews and condemned them to death and sent ships full of kids back to Germany to go straight to a death camp? To be fair, most of the Christian European countries did much the same, but where are the values there, again? Those are some values I can live without.

Why not have a Religion Board for these discussions?
The essence of Religion is based on one's societal interaction, as such will determine one's (supposed) next life. Politics is as well, only focusing on the current life scenario. It was Politics that put Jesus on the cross, and it will likely be politics (dysfunctional version) which creates the 'Arrmageddon' which ushers in His (the Visionary version) 'Second Coming'.
There could be a Religion Board, but few would post on it. Religious Ideas are subjective, kinda like one's preference for Art "is in the eye of the beholder". Everybody will just claim that their particular Religious (Spiritual) view is the true one. 'He said...she said'. I've been on purely Religious Forums, and they pretty blasé', as individual's simply assert their chosen beliefs. What good is that. Those that have Religious/Spiritual potential and ability ("eyes that see and ears that hear") won't long engage in such a futile and counter-productive enterprise; "casting pearls amongst the swine". (That is a quote, and not my opinion of those who are 'blinded').
It is Religious Ideas (Morality) that are the basis for Societal Law. Otherwise, it is Mother Nature's Darwinian Law which is the default. Politics is the process of society arguing the Morality of particular human interactive scenarios and aligning their chosen Laws according to their preferred Morality.
Bill of Rights. God-given inalienable Rights. Constitution nullifies and societal/Democratic usurpation of said Rights.
There is a Book called "God's Politics" wherein the Author uses Biblical Morality to promote Socialist (anti-Constitutional) Policy.
IMO, and given this Forum's extraordinary record per interesting, informative, productive and fun debate, along with a good job by the Admins...I don't see any problem with the current format. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Unless Chicken gives us a religion and philosophy board this is all we've got
As an aside, good luck with any conservative movement in the US untethered from Christianity
