A note for readers and a friendly reminder. Not all of us believe exactly the same things on many issues. That disturbed me for a long time. I'm still not 100% sure why this is so, but I think Ray spoke to it in the 'why does God love us' paper. We're all different.
Now the reminder. The moderators set up the forum and the purposes of the various sub-forums long before I joined. This one is for "just for fun posts and light-hearted banter".
Some may ask "What sub-forum is meant for opinions on various serious subjects not covered in the materials at B-T?"
Answer: There isn't one.
Nobody wants to be a forum-nazi, but this isn't about free-speech. It's about the purpose of the forum. The internet is huge. If anybody wants to find 'allies' or arguments about personal points of view, there is no shortage of opportunities.
Just as we do not require anybody to believe or agree with anything that Ray teaches, we do not require anybody to believe or agree with anything a member posts. I think it's important from time to time to remind folks--especially new members and guests--of this fact.

Hi Dave,
I really liked how you worded this. Ray always believed that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But like you said this forum is for people to learn, discuss and share his teachings and values.
Thank you for pointing this out.
