I think it's sad that this question brought out so much hostility. The people who could actually make a decision here did so in a straightforward and courteous way, if not blunt. So did some other folks. But some of these responses were just embarrassing -- although predictable -- based on the usual cast of characters.

Thank you terrib. I won't let it go to my head though. Every now and again I get lucky.
kaybee,
You can fit God into anything you write, and your faith may become evident in your writing. When you try to force it though, and make it into a standard, it just seems brash and intentional. Try to change hearts and minds with your writing, not force hearts and minds to adapt for your writing.
Realize that the whole forum is open to things of God, you don't have to hold it all in one section. Maybe the people aren't open to God, but the entire writing world is subjective in nature.
And if people give you lip on here about not wanting your opinion, just remember, in most threads they already asked for it.

Can we have a section for bi-sexual satanists who are into spinal piercing and kung-fu? And Lebanese food?

But not catering to people who have a distinct interest in Lebanese food as well. This one will be a completely seperate section. It's really gonna change things around here.

I also say no, even though I am a devout Christian. If you want to write something a bout God, post it in the normal areas, or on your religion's web site.
Oh yes you made me giggle OX! Hilarious.

I think we went through the "can we have a thread for _____ " jokes about three pages ago.

And I think that's pretty well the end of this discussion.
