Re: Hymns... out of fashion or eternally good??

Why is it that some people feel the need to be very quick to express the fact that they are of a particular faith on this forum? Of course it is the prerogative of that person to do so but really not necessary. It’s a completely private affair between that person and whatever religion they belong to. You are who you are, you believe in what you believe. So be it.

A message to Leonidis. In the past, as you have probably gathered by now, there have been people who, after joining the forum and being sincerely and warmly welcomed, then took advantage of this outlet by posting their religious beliefs in a very aggressive manner. They became very rude and offensive to anyone who dared to oppose their views, making personal and unwarranted comments about those who did so.

This is a friendly, helpful, caring, interesting and often funny forum – with people having lots of differing views on various subjects like members of a big family have, and like a family we don’t always agree with each other. However, we respect each other’s viewpoints and no one tries to influence anyone in the way that some of those have tried to do in the past with their religious beliefs. We agree to beg to differ.

So maybe you will understand the reason why the apprehension when new members post their religious beliefs so early on. We are a bit wary as to what this might lead to.

Irrespective of the above, I hope you get as much enjoyment out of being part of Accyweb as so many of the members do, including me. There are many subjects to post about and to comment on. Enjoy!
