4. It's disappearance was a bit odd
But I managed to copy my reply, so here it is anyway, thread or no thread:


Absolutely!

DU isn't the friendliest place for those who in believe in some type of higher power, but there is a Christian forum:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=291

And Catholic forum:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=237

And a non-denominational prayer circle group:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=237

Check the forums lobby under Ethnicity, Religion and Atheism for more.

I find the attacks on my faith here only serve to strengthen it more, so I don't mind.

5. I was in the process of replying, too, but I had the feeling that it was a "concern" posting.
I figured the thread would have a short shelf life.

6. I don't want this to sound snarky, 'cause it's totally not -- I really want your opinion
What would have had it yanked? What was of concern? It sounded like an honest, thoughtful post, its only possible fault is that it was written by someone with few posts, which to some, is a crime.

With some of the nastiness that's accepted and applauded on these boards, I can't imagine why a mod would be so short-sighted as to "poof" it. Move it, maybe, but not make it disappear. Un-modlike, imo.

7. My post in that thread was going to suggest that the poster should offer his or her own opinion
before asking for the opinion of others on such a personal issue.

To me, it sounded like he or she was implying that almost no DU-ers were believers or were spiritual, and he wanted people to prove him or her wrong.
