why are non christians allowed to post on this site?

Well, you would have to ask the site owners, but I am assuming that non christians are allowed to post on this site for basically the same reasons Christians are allowed to post on this site.

Your question seems to imply that you think non christians should not be allowed to post on this site. Maybe you tell us why you think so. It might be the easier way to get to the point.

I could be wrong, its happened more than once in my life but just reading how the OP is phrased - I dont think its a question as more that its a vent.

If it was a question, then it would have been in the Staff/CF Support section for the Mods and Erwin to answer.

this kinda reminds me of that old story of the christian that had been in this one church for years and really felt that the church for "us christians", and them sinners shouldnt be allowed in.....

well, this is more than a story actually - this really happened.

I visited this one church right after I got out of alcohol rehab in the military - after the service, when I told the asst pastor I was a non christian recovering alcoholic stationed on a nearby base, I was told right then and there that "there was OTHER churches for my kind....." this was in Feb, 2000, central coast, CA

cant you just feel the love???? said all that to say this about the OP: when you ask a point blank questi like that here for everyone to obviously read, well, really makes one feel wanted, dont it?

dont answer - its a rhetorical question.

Nevermind that. Why are non christians allowed to live in this country?

Well it's obvious to me. Fairness of free speech, or the genuine desire to hear diverse opinions doesn't seem to be the reason we non-christians are allowed to post. At least, from my view, that's how it looks.

I feel the supreme reason(s) non-christians are "allowed" to post on this site is:

1.) It brings non-Christians in contact with Christians making an environment where conversions and indoctrinations are possible. Thus "spreading" the word and grace of "God" as so many like to term it.

2.) It gives the "preachy" type of Christian a forum to preach and rant.

3.) It allows for a fellowship of Christain participants to "band" together against a specific issued or "examples of sin" raised in discussion with/by non-believers. Thus seeming to strenthen the "faith".

Honestly. That's why I think I'm allowed on here.

Sure i know there are some very good and fair minded Christian posters that participate and want to hear from all people of all walks of life. But, I don't think that is the Forum's reason for allowing non-christians to post. Otherwise, there would not be a "Christian-only" section. Sheesh, talk about a plain, small scale, example of a religion seeking ultimate domination. Oh well...

Maybe a better question is: why do non-Christians come to a Christian Forum site?

I think Garnet actually covered this one.

Why shouldn't they be, afterall it's called "Christain" Forums.

Why are you asking us?

We're just members. We don't run the site. Perhaps your question should be directed to those who could provide an answer?
