Assault On Religious Forums

Just recently, I discovered a forum simply titled “Religion” hosted by a website I will leave anonymous. When I found it, I was simply thrilled with the thought of sharing religious topics with others and learning about other individual views on the subject. It seemed a wonderful way to reach out and learn how people across the world and from different cultures shared their faith and beliefs. In anticipation, I made my first post. What followed was shocking.

The thread was overwhelmed with horrible comments and vulgar responses by atheists and “trolls”. I was taken aback and very unnerved. Glancing over previously posted topics, I found some relating to the all-out “bashing” of believers and some with various sexual themes. I almost fell out of my chair. And it would appear that this isn’t the only forum experiencing this as many have taken to these chatrooms with malicious intent preventing those with sincere interest to participate in intelligent discussion.

The “tragic irony” of this is that some participants in these forums are likely to have children of their own, or at least have children in their lives and are all about legislation that fights to protect those children, but they don’t consider that children and young people will enter one of these forums and will find such postings. The thought is horrifying and foreshadows a very dark future.
