Application of warnings or bans will be subject to moderator discretion. Feel free to appeal. If changes to the guidelines are necessary, they will be adjusted.


If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a group that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of any other group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you you will be banned on sight.

Provable means able to provide proof to the moderation, and, if necessary, to the community.

Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley’s recent First Things essay, “Our Christian Nation,” may warm the hearts of Christian nationalists and confound historians and theologians who worry about continuing threats to the separation of church and state.

What exactly does he mean with revival? Back when the US were a British colony? Because the USA are not a Cristian nation and never were.

So is he a monarchist?

Used to listen to a local, conservative radio host. Great guy, really. Lady called in around Christmas talking about America always being a Christian nation.

"Well, not really. Our founding fathers were mostly Deists and the like..."

"That's what I said, CHRISTIAN."

"Well, no they weren't. In fact, they were against proclaiming America a Christian..."

"Yes! You're right! CHRISTIAN!"

The caller walked away thinking the host was agreeing with her!

Luke gave it up around 2007/08, something like that. Fuck me. If Luke McCoy wasn't conservative enough... Anyway, Luke died in 2016. Thank god he didn't see today's breed of right-wingers.

There used to be sane voices on the right. Maybe I didn't agree with them, but they weren't bug fuck nuts.

And it should be noted that someone being a Diest then is very similar to an atheist now. The founding fathers were largely either the equivalent of atheists or of radical left wing Christianity
