Details, man ... we need details.

Well, o.k., since you asked nice.

Outstanding (and bookmarked). I want to join, too. If you haven't
already checked out their forums, you must. Here's just a sample:

--------------------------------

The owner of the board is GOD.
GOD, and those who are part of His Staff, can make and change the rules
as they see fit, at any given time, with or without prior notice.

As a Visitor (also known as an Unpaying Guest) to this board, you are
granted the privilege of reading topics and posting replies. If GOD's
representatives decide, for any reason whatsoever, to remove some or all
of those privileges, then guess what?

* That's life. *

You don't have to like it.
You don't have to agree with it.
You don't have to think it's fair.
You don't have to understand why it was done.
You don't have the right to an explanation.

You may feel whatever you choose.
You may even attempt to seek an explanation.
But you are not entitled to one.

You are entitled to nothing.
You are doomed to Hell and you had better get to repenting.

If you don't like it, there are millions of other web pages you can
visit, and thousands of other chat boards.

As an alternative, you can start your own chat board, pay the bills, and
appoint your very own Staff. There's nothing stopping you but the
effort. Sadly, you still won't be GOD.

Conclusion

Thank you again for your attention. I certainly hope this has cleared up
any confusion regarding the "right" to Free Speech on this board.

Now that's my kind of church. :-)

As a member of Landover, I'd say you'd be asking for a bit more than
black-eyed peas ...

Hm......

A brief Google search reveals that there is now, at long last, a secure
ontological basis for a belief in.......um......well, something, anyway.

Arrrrr.......now yer' talkin', matey!

who always suspected that if religion per se had no past worthy of note, it
might yet have a future full of promise.

This one was easy. I'm very interested in the whole intelligent
design/creatonism movement and the attempts to get that into the public
schools. FSM was a result of the Kansas Board of Education fiasco and has
been mentioned in a lot of articles I''ve read over the past couple of
months. My pirate hallucinations while I was close to diabetic coma were
possibly messages from the noodly one hisownself, arrr! ;-)
