• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    This is the opposite of true. If this were the case, nobody would ever get stopped in the street and asked if they've found Jesus or whatever. You don't get to call religious people selfish for only caring about themselves and criticize them for patronising atheists by praying for them. I...

I don't usually use "What religious beliefs do...

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    Maybe I live in a sheltered bubble, but I don't think I've ever met a person who uses their religion to justify any kind of negative action against someone else. Actually, pretty much all the religious people I know are absolutely wonderful (to be fair, I think most people are wonderful), and...

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    I've baptised a couple of people in my time. Most memorably, a good few years ago, a friend and I baptised a militant athiest friend of ours in his sleep. Yes, most people write WANKER backwards on their friends' heads when they fall asleep in a public place, but we sprinkled him with water and...

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    I think studying religion is important, especially in areas where people of lots of faiths co-exist. Understanding what and why other people believe is a major part of building multicultural communities. Plus, religion is a completely inexctricable part of history (of just about any country you...

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    This isn't true. It's true that the majority of religious people come from religious backgrounds, but plenty of people 'find' religion as adults, often after actively 'looking for meaning'. You can't generalize like that.
