Re: Is Swinging Biblical? If so, let's endorse a hott new forum and consistantly prov I think Mr Wise Virgin took the wrong tack at what he was hoping to accomplish here. He had PMed me previously requesting a forum be added for discussion of swinging and religion. I advised him to post his request here to get an idea for how others might feel about such a forum and to see if perhaps there was more of a "demand" for it than I thought... based on the threads we have seen here (which really are not many in the scheme of things).
Unfortunately, he approached the "request" much differently here in this forum than he did in his PM and WiseVirgin, it appears that you came off with much more of an agenda in your post here than you did in your PM to me (as if your agenda is more related to your book idea than to enhancing this site.... as site which until now you have taken no interest in being involved in).
I think, and I could be wrong, from what WiseVirgin PMed me that his thought is not to "convince" the religious people but to give an outlet to those who are already religious but who have grown to accept that swinging is ok by their interpretation of the Bible. It's interesting that this came up this week as we were just looking through local groups on SLS in the last couple of days and ran across a "Liberated Christians" group in our area (hosted by another member of this board actually) and we thought it was "interesting" to say the least. We are not religious by any extent of the word (just the opposite really) and I have to say we thought it a bit odd that a swinger group was getting together for "Bible studies". It seems to me that WiseVirgin is wanting something similiar to be added here.... a forum where those who are "liberated christians" can share their thoughts on the Bible and have online bible studies of sorts, etc.
Definately not my thing.... but as with anything if enough people are interested, I'm open to it. That said, I have not seen that interest displayed on THIS site through the posts that have been made here (in general), which was why I invited him to post his request in the Comment Box to see if perhaps there was some interest I had missed. |
