@ Beauty

As me and Mr. Sweet have said only, people who want to be in the fray forum will be there and this is the only way some can get converted by a zealot, and on top that if it is not against your will you agreed with the ideology of that converter.

That why it is why it is called the fray meaning you are more free to speak. Like I said, if you are not going to be participating don’t waste time people telling us why you don’t like the fray stay in the scholarly forums. Also, another reason is this many people who give opinions may not be frequent posters or commenters (may leave soon or comment once in awhile) people come and go leave and stay. Also I feel that some people who may secretively or publicly say they don’t like the fray if that fray forum is opened I bet you find them there. The only way to find out whether the fray will help contribute to the mission of this website is to open a fray forum and let see. Never know until you try it.

I feel it will help.

Beauty said: have given a examples to demonstrate what I mean:

1. The sky is orange.

2. All white men are paedophiles‘.

3. Every Black man is a robber.

It is the fray, and they can say some of these silly things, anyone can see that a poster who would even post something like that is just trying to get you into an debate. Also, it is up to the commenters in the fray to decide whether they even want to go comment on that posters thread. There will be other very intelligent posts (essays) in the fray to comment on. Let us not speculate on the fray let us create the fray and see how it turns out. The only way to find out whether the fray will help contribute to the mission of this website is to open a fray forum and let see. Never know until you try it.

I find your comments a bit rude. You have made a suggestion and I have offered my opinion. This does not give the right to dictate what I should read. I understand this is an open discussion, and since I am a member I exercise the right to my opinion. I noticed the you used the word "us" which implies you are speaking on the behalf of others, I think you should speak for yourself only.

I agree, many of the people who are not keen on it will probably visit the forum. I also agree that is impossible know if the fray will be useful until it tried. However, I suspect it won't, which is different from me saying I know it won't work.

@ Beauty

I am sorry if you find my comment I bit rude, I am sorry for that no ofense meant in an evil way, I apologize for that BEAUTY.

I used the term us to mean us as in those who might want to try it out, and are interested. But I am speaking for myself. Yes, you have the right to speak, you are a member of this site and I respect that right to speak as a member. I would not wnt to have someon try to take mine away, your opinion was appreciated. I feel it will more than likely work, but at the sametime you are rght it may not work or it may work. If Mr. F sweet opens up a FRAY forum then I will be able to see if it would work.

Thank you for your opinion.

@ chasbyrd

I also posted this comment over in the Slaves and reincarnation essay Chasbyrd.

Yes I am familiar with the Bhagavad gita that celestial song, that holy song (book). Lord Krishna the hero of the bhagavad gita who encouraged Arjuna to fight against the enemy. Krishna an avatar of Vishnu and Vishnu is represented ganesha the great elephant. Lord Vishnu rides on garuda (a bird). Rama and Sita Rama the hero of the Ramayana. Valmiki wrote the Ramayana and thousands of years later tulsidas rewrote the Ramayana and called it Rāmacaritamānasa ("The Lake of the Deeds of Rama"). Tulsidas is said to have been a reincarnation of Valmiki. Tulsidas’s version of the Ramayana is similar but a little different from the Valmiki version Valmiki’s version have 24, 0000 verses. Tulsidas’s version is often written in prose. Krishna and Radha Rama and Sita Buddha and Yasodhara, husbands and wives, wow! The Hindu epics are powerful and inspirational.

The 10 avatars that the Hindu scriptures speak of 9 have come -- one more to go. The next and final (last) avatar will be called the Maitreya Buddha. It is said in the Hindu scriptures that Maitreya Buddha will come on a riding on a white horse. The Bible also speaks of a savior on a white horse.

There needs to be a religious forum the religious forum must not be a part of another forum. The first words people should see on that forum is religion.

My opinions:

I would be against having 'The Fray' as part of ODR simply because there are many sites that already serve the purpose of 'flame wars'. And it is very amusing to see 'zealots' of all stripes try to get around ODR site rules (pre and post banning). Laughing

A religion forum could be interesting, but only if it was listed under the political advocacy forums. Perhaps a sub-forum? My only requirement would be that that religious text be cited to 'verify' doctrine, belief, etc. Afterall, you can't really quantify 'faith', now can you? Wink

We need a forum like this because there is a problem in the other forums, and I feel it is hurting the website too some degree -- and good intentions sometimes make things a little bit ruff. We need a forum independent of the scholarly forums we really do. Forget about flame wars it is not all about that there needs to be a forum separate from the others so things can run smoother.
