i joined a fairly fundamental christian forum, i think thinkatheists should check it out:

here's the site:

http://prorege-forum.com/forum.php

my username is jakegarland and i'm not the only atheist there, there is rawrgor and (dis)integrater, among others.

i've had 4 or 5 posts deleted since i joined, the admin, bibleprobe, is a fundamentalist, a homophobe, a bigot and as stubborn as a mule. likewise many of the other users are very close-minded, save a few (ha, i made a pun!).

if anyone knows of any forums similar to this i would greatly enjoy joining those as well, please let me know if anyone has found any forums dealing with religion, existence, theism, atheism or anything related, regardless of which side the forum takes. i am vastly interested in these topics and could talk about them endlessly.

lol. you knew that was gonna get you banned as you were typing it. that is some crazy shit.
I was just browsing their website, and was reading the page where they tell us their theory on aliens; I asked them what their actual opinon was on the matter thinking that there no way they could believe that nonsense.. I was wrong LOL maybe they are a branch of Scientology?
or maybe Mormons. Mormons theology teaches that god is a flesh and blood man living around a star named Kolob (some say Kolob is a planet and that god actually lives on it). sounds just as kooky. lol.
interestingly, many Mormons don't know this about their own religion's theology because the kooky shit isn't discussed with converts to the faith until they're well and truly into it, if ever.
just like Xenu in Scientology. most Scientologists have no idea about the B movie sci-fi crack addled bullshit aspect of their religion. lol.
There are lot of videos on youtube of mormons true beliefs but alot of comments coming from longtime mormons telling that it isnt true.
Must be true though.. alot of the videos look rather old.
that's the same thing you'll get when you confront a Scientologist about Zenu. it is true though. it's right there in the writings of their founding prophets, the writings that are still today the foundation of their theology:
* God used to be a man on another planet (Mormon Doctrine, p. 321; Joseph Smith, Times and Seasons, vol. 5, p. 613-614; Orson Pratt, Journal of Discourses, vol. 2, p. 345; Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, vol. 7, p. 333).

* "The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s..." (Doctrin&Covenants 130:22).

* God is in the form of a man, (Joseph Smith, Journal of Discourses, vol. 6, p. 3).

* "God himself was once as we are now, and is an exalted man, and sits enthroned in yonder heavens!!! . . . We have imagined that God was God from all eternity. I will refute that idea and take away the veil, so that you may see," (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 345).

* God the Father had a Father [another being, God's father, conceived God. goes towards flesh and blood description], (Joseph Smith, History of the Church, vol. 6, p. 476; Heber C. Kimball, Journal of Discourses, vol. 5, p. 19; Milton Hunter, First Council of the Seventy, Gospel through the Ages, p. 104-105).

* God resides near a star called Kolob, (Pearl of Great Price [The Book of Abraham], p. 34-35; Mormon Doctrine, p. 428).

a Mormon who denies this simply hasn't read the writings of the very men who founded the Mormon religion and were the elder prophets succeeding Joseph Smith, the men on who's words the religion is based.

not that Mormon's are unique in this of course. after all, more American Christians find it easier to name the ingredients in a McDonald's Big Mac or the names of the Brady Bunch kids than the Ten Commandments.
I dont understand why people choose to believe in this crap; seriously look at it; wtf lol
lol. you and me both brother.... you and me both....
*FINAL UPDATE (?)*

bibleprobe finally kicked me off, deleted my best, most irrefutable posts, and created a new post stating that the atheist "cancer" is gone. this new post is addressed to another religious member of the forum, whom i had engaged in a good amount of my discussions with. in this members response, she defends me. i'm honored and flabbergasted, here's her post:

"It should be a bit calmer now. I have to admit that I am re-examining one of my original understandings, but I am confident that I will reach a conclusion that I am comfortable with. I am now beginning to believe that there is a difference between a non-believer and a full blown atheist. I see jakegarland (only an example) as someone who was trying to debunk and examine his own theories as much as anything else, as opposed to the name calling, Bible bashing atheist. There must be others out there like him. However, if you allowed the debates to continue, you would be somewhat compelled to allow others to give their two cents, and before you know it this site would be infested with atheists. We would be fools to believe that we have all of the knowledge and can not learn a thing from those unlike us. That being said, (I have no idea who came up with this) I like the statement that, "If you open your mind too much, your brain will fall out". I believe that we can learn very well from each other... without the stress!!"

while this statement is still quite misinformed for the most part, it's nice to see somebody who isn't completely close-minded to anything different. i may try and return under a different username (a resurrection!!) but i have a feeling they're going to be very guarded against new member ever since atheists started cropping up (gee i wonder how that happened :D)
I have an account you can use :-) accounts can only be created by contacting the admin; that way no more Atheist 'cancer' can get through LOL

They obviously don't have very good admin tools with their forum as they would see that I have 3 accounts 2 of which are deleted all with the same IP.
