Is this thread supposed to be about actual religions, such as Christianity, or joke religions created by the ConwayLife community, such as here? The former seems like a bad idea to me, while the latter will likely be okay.
I am tentatively considering myself back.

This isn't something I ever would have imagined I would have to say, but is there any way you'd be willing not to talk about me in religious terms (even with an irony mark)? Honestly I never would have posted my forum glitches in the first place if I knew it would turn into the big deal it did...

The primary intention of posting that was in order to prevent this thread from becoming about actual religions. I understand, though.



Edit: I just re-realized that your profile picture is essentially two test tube baby halves hassling two other test tube baby halves and then switching.

Yes. I'm an atheist and an anti-theist (against the concept of (any) religion), but I'm not looking to pick a fight with anyone over it, especially here.

The third one?It is called мироточење in Serbian but I really do not know how to translate it.
Those are bad resources.
The bodies of saints definitely do not degrade and the Holy Fire is true. It is a miracle. Those who say something other are lying and possibly working for far-away-from-me beings. I simply know. I will say more a bit later since I am not in a mood for this now. Never believe to anyone who claimed to have revealed the truth about the East Orthodox Church that is various from what we currently believe.
THE UNIVERSE MUST HAVE A CREATOR AND HE IS GOD!

We have a prophet in our midst. The prediction seems to have come true impressively quickly. When two people report each other's posts in quick succession, things are getting wonderfully toxic.

Notice that this is making more work for the moderators. The moderators don't want more work. The Sandbox was created so that people who wanted to post stuff that's only tangentially related to CA could quietly go and do it in the Sandbox, and not mess up the rest of the forums.

I locked a thread yesterday partly because of your unnecessary shouting, BokaBB. When I do something like that, it should be a very strong hint to you that the capitalizing wasn't a good idea. In other words, I've already urged you to stop capitalizing.

Again, please think of something else to do -- and preferably make it something related to cellular automata. At this point, locking the entire Sandbox is starting to look like a reasonable option. We could just go back to enforcing the same forum rules everywhere.

If moderators have to waste their time sifting through and policing huge piles of silly and irrelevant garbage in the Sandbox anyway (because posts are getting reported all the time) then it seems simpler just to do that work in the regular forums... and encourage the more argumentative Sandbox dwellers to open a nice Discord channel or something, and move their pointless discords over there.
