Anyone know of super-fundy forums such as 7 X Sunday, but busier? I have a few choice questions I'd like to ask them, appearing to blend in but riling things up.

You want someone to recommend you a forum so that you can troll it? :shock:

MEh. I'm not going to slap hands for "trolling" if the purpose is to seem enough like them to actually get to ask them some questions. Otherwise, what Clibby and I did by going to a Maxwell conference and pretending to a be homeschooling Christian mom and a wife to be of similar character would be real life trolling, as would the guy who enrolled at Liberty university and wrote a book about it, etc. Sometimes you have to act like them to be able to actually interact with them and develop an understanding of what they believe and who they are.

I don't think it is trolling really. You're not doing it to piss them off and create problems in the forum, right? It's more of a covert fact-seeking operation.

Going into a forum with the intention of riling things up sounds like the textbook definition of trolling to me. It's a free internet, but I personally think it's bad form. I don't comment on fundie blogs or forums and it annoys me when we get M R As and such here, so I don't go kicking sand in other people's playgrounds. Everyone else's mileage undoubtedly varies.

Rapture Ready is a good one. I don't agree with trolling though; go and join, ask them questions and get them to think, but trolling? No, don't sink to that level.

Trolling at Rapture Ready isn't even a sport, there are so many of them.

They are pretty quick with the banhammer too, even if you aren't trolling. Just question their beliefs and you're outta there.

Yeah, I joined to ask a genuine question, asked it quite open about my beliefs (saying "I'm not a Christian" is okay in their rules, trying to explain why isn't), and had been banned from posting before the question was even moved to the appropriate sub-forum. I couldn't thank anyone for their responses because I couldn't post :roll:

Kinda. I live a fairly fundy lifestyle (not entirely by choice) and I have questions/concerns that secular friends blow off. I'd like some input from those on the other end of the spectrum, and perhaps by combining the two, I can get at a closer truth. Plus I really wouldlike to know what they have to say.

Trolling isn't for me. I just know that my questions WILL make waves. I got kicked off a Christian team on my host website for asking too many (genuine, not trolling) questions (also for having items that reference fictional magic in my shop).

There are people here that are at least as well versed in the Bible as any fundie scholars I have come across, and likely better. There are quite a few of us that grew up fundie and fundie lite, and there are a lot of Christians here. I imagine if you ask your questions and specify who in particular you would like to hear from, you would get a good response. Burris and MamaJuneBug particularly come to mind as far as knowing their scriptures and being Christians. (Not of the fundie variety, but of the actual Christ-like sort.)

If you want a discussion more than you want to stir up trouble, this is a good place to have it. I bet you get more thoughtful answers and you certainly won't be banned for asking questions.

      Stupid loneliness!
      Kid 1 went back to college (yeah! But sad foe me, she stayed with me all summer. It was nice to start a new phase in our mother/daughter relationship)
      Zero prospects on dates. (Not that I have tried online dating, scared of that but I have reached put to a new group at church, etc.
      I asked a friend to go to dinner the other night so I wasn't eating alone, again. The friend had plans, all my friends always have plans. I see stuff on social media, I'm never invited. I'm single, I'm the 3rd or 5th wheel.
      My one parent friend at kid 2's fall sport won't be there because their daughter made varsity (Yeah for her!!! Seriously happy for her. Sad for me for another sport I basically sit alone, did that majority of spring and summer sporting events.)
      And now I'm crying as my mom told me 2 different funny stores that former teachers remembered about my twin. Both stories were about how they got a crack out of my twin's antics (my parents went to a funeral today and saw former colleagues). Teachers remember me (after all I was a twin and teachers' kid) but none would have memorable stories of me. 
      I feel invisible. 
      Don't worry, this will pass,  it always does. I just need a pity party for a few days. I'm not in anyway going to harm myself. As lonely as I am, I have a very full life I (usually) love. I just needed to vent and cry for a moment. 
      If you are still reading this, thanks Fjer. 😊

      Absolutely awful about the fires on Maui. In 2019, I stayed in Lahaina. I liked to sit on the sea wall, which is the only structure left now, and watch the water. People are receiving help, but many had to leave pets. Please donate to the Maui Humane Society, which is leading efforts to find, treat, and reunite pets.

      Nebraska’s new football coach, who is involved in an organization called Man Up Ministries, labels certain players “Alphas” and sometimes “extreme Alphas” and the local paper has a nice piece on why people objecting to the term “alpha male” are wrong and it has a “nice ring”. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
