Lemmy - or the “Fediverse” - is not still fledgling, but is not yet developed. It is an alternative to sites like Reddit, -Chan, etc., but it is neither as popular nor as sophisticated. Its functionality is not yet equal to the general image board standards of more than a decade ago.

Lemmy.ca/c/Religion is of exceptional quality. Says me.

Many of these posts contain somewhat controversial material. What they thus far do not contain, are any comments or posts apart from my own.

My actions and choices - past, present, or future - are never to be recognized as participation in, or consent to, or association with, or acceptance of, any Masonic activities, any activities of a Children’s Aid Society or similar, any activities of a secret society, any activities of a faith-based group, any rites, or rituals, or superstitions, or any extra-judicial resolutions or inquiries.

Faith-based terrorism is pervasive in some modern cultures. That is, the intent to compel any person, by fear, to do or not do any thing, reasoned by ideological means, exists. It is and has historically been among the greatest harms of humanity, and is not prosecuted often enough.

It appears to have manifested on this sub-forum, and is unacceptable anywhere.

Individuals may separate their agency from association. That is, a person who I might recognize as a member of a faith-based group, presumably has facets of their life which are unrelated and unassociable.

For example, Simone Giertz might preclude a statement from association with her former Regency, such as: “I am not now speaking as the former Queen Of Shitty Robots…” (sad Toy Story vibes, there). She might also just leave the crown and scepter on the mantel.

Participation in Lemmy.ca/c/Religion - and interaction with me in general - couldn’t necessitate association with faith. I discriminate against faith, and people that don’t. I know. I know. The irony isn’t lost on me.

This isn’t intended to be DRHOY’s sub-forum. Post anything of substance. The Ten Commandments have been lost many times in history, and have only relatively recently been re-recovered (by me, like, 2,500 years since their last appearance). Not everything can be revelations from Mount Sinai.

Ask questions if you would like me to attempt to answer them.

Argue against my posts or comments - or each others - as individuals. Someone tried to tell me I was wrong, once. I have to assume that it’s at least possible. Perhaps you will be able to wrest a figurative “Excalibur” out of my thick-necked stubbornness.

Pffft.
