Agreed. It would make these discussions easier. I'll start- Southern Baptist.

It seems to me that United Massachusetts' current proposal in the WA leaves a serious "loophole." Even though it bans conversion therapy its definition defines it only as an intervention bent on changing someone's sexual/gender identification etc. In reality, as far as I know, the "best" sort of "conversion therapy" is when the end is to simply help teenagers who are struggling with vague same-sex attraction whilst they are maturing. Most of these people would not necessarily identify or desire to consider themselves homosexual, transgender, etc and thus the therapy would not contravene the resolution. Thoughts?

Pretty sure that Cocles, CoL, UM, and Eire are all Catholic. You can add them. Can't think of any others off the top of my head. Might want to keep the list alphabetized too.

I don't have a religious ideology, but I am a confirmed member of the Catholic Church within the Anglican Ordinariate, a special use of the Roman part of the Church, and an initiate in the lay part of the Dominican order. I was raised a member of the United Methodist Church and attended an Assemblies of God church for a long time.

So you admit that you are heathens? Interesting strategy.

Independent Baptist.

Or Indybap for short, an abbreviation that I just made up and now claim as my own.

My plan is to only put them on once they've spoken for themselves, just to make sure that I'm putting on the names that they want.

So what should I put you down as?

Slavic Lechia is a Jehovah's Witness, I believe.

Mine is pretty difficult to peg, I say.

"Catholic (Anglican Ordinariate)", but again I would rather not be on list of religious ideology.

What about a religious whatever cheat sheet, and what's your issue with being on it?

I don't know what your definition of "ideology" is, but we just want to know your religious affiliation/identity/belief system. It's much easier to discuss religions here if we know others' perspectives. Really, it works for any discussion, including abortion.

The Catholic State of Eire wrote:Catholic has for sure fallen into sedevacantism, this is a concern to those who are loyal to Rome.

I am Orthodox, and as such, I see the current Roman Pope as the successor to all popes before him, regardless of any errant dogmatic inventions in the past.

Ever wonder why the Orthodox don’t simply install a new Orthodox Pope in Rome and continue on as if the Roman Catholic Church doesn’t exist? That’s why; Pope Francis is still the heir to the ancient apostolic succession. Some of my Orthodox brothers and sisters may disagree with me, but I believe that the Sacraments of the Roman Church are grace-filled in the eyes of Christ.

May Christ-God grant Pope Francis many years, and may the Orthodox and the Latins unite in faith as before.

You can put me down for Western Orthodox.

Culture of Life wrote:Huh? If a woman keeps track and figures out when she ovulates, she's 36% likely to conceive following a single act of sexual intercourse.

https://www.nejm.org/na101/home/literatum/publisher/mms/journals/content/nejm/1995/nejm_1995.333.issue-23/nejm199512073332301/production/images/img_medium/nejm199512073332301_t1.jpeg

A fertile young couple trying to get pregnant needs to have sexual intercourse:

1 time -- 1 – .64 = 36%
2 times -- 1 – .64 x .64 = 59%
3 times -- 1 – .64 x .64 x .64 = 74%
4 times -- 1 – .64 x .64 x .64 x .64 = 83%
5 times -- 1 – .64 x .64 x .64 x .64 x .64 = 89%

And so on.

Sure, we're discussing different populations. I was referring to the average number of episodes of intercourse to achieve conception in the general population, you're talking about the probability of conception in optimised circumstances (young healthy parents, focusing around time of ovulation).

Still, even in those circumstances, if we treat each sperm as a human we're still talking orders of magnitude in mass death for each conception that occurs, so the point still stands. If sperm are human beings, then artificial insemination is far more ethical. 1 semen sample, taken at the start of puberty, then pre-emptive vasectomy. Gigadeath prevented.

Of course, they're not, so it isn't.

Please forgive my ramblings yesterday, drink was involved.

Also the sooner the Roman and Orthodox Church's join the better.

Maybe you can differentiate the Catholics here, I could be identified as an Irish Catholic.

In our current time it has something of a negative connotation and the use of such a modern term on ancient faiths is almost anachronistic. Even still I think conceiving being a Christian as simply a collection/system of ideas is wrongheaded.
Aside from this, perhaps petty, squabble of mine, I think it is a great idea. Thanks for accommodating an old coot and changing it.
