I don't really post often so I'm not an active member, but I think the current name sounds fine. If it's changed to something different, I think it would be better to still use the word "liberal" rather than "progressive". According to wikipedia, Liberal Christianity and Progressive Christianity are two different things, with the former referring to theological views, and the latter referring to some political views as well. The label "liberal" in itself can also have political connotations, but the more specific label "liberal Christianity" can be used to make the name less ambiguous, so that it doesn't imply any political restrictions.

In general, I think that CF is overregulated and over-controlled, much more than it needs to be. A name like "Whosoever Will, May Come" basically means all are welcome.

That's fine with me. If difficult people wander in, I can choose to ignore them, and so can everyone else.

In terms of theology a message board shouldn't be the place people use like a catechism. There should be a blanket statement on the site: Don't use this place like a catechism. If in doubt, contact your clergyman.

Then there wouldn't be so much censorship over what people write.
