Gotcha. I'm sick of seeing these "Can someone give me a link to a site on x" threads. Not only are they violating the blatantly clear annoucement, but they're repetitive and aren't discussions.

So we're going to try and fix this. Now you may ask "How nora? How will we fix this?" Well pull up a chair and listen to auntie nora.

We're going to make a _non-gaia_ link list. This sticky will be a place for us to post resources to all sorts of different websites relating to religious matters, so that people don't have to make threads asking for them (although they probably will anyway).

So this is how it works. You post links here. I go check out those links, and if the site seems sound (by sound I mean as accurate to the spirit of the subject it professes to discuss as I can determine, not unbiased or impartial!) I will post it here for everyone else who comes here to find and click on and go to.

Voila.

A good, all around site, has basic information on a multitude of religions, and explains the various religion's positions on various major issues, such as Evolution, abortion, cloning, death penalty, homosexuality, etc.

And that's all for now.

Enough, TM. Jack Chick is a psychopath. Every Christian I have ever met in real life is disgusted with him.
