A portion of its funding is federal, mostly through the parks service. Did you really not research that claim? This became an issue last year when the church decided to go ahead and perform same sex marriages, and a hyper right wing group freaked out and tried to get all federal funds cut by way of DOMA.

National Cathedral celebrates Muslim Friday prayers (photos) [View all] hrmjustin Nov 2014 OP

As RW heads exploded, I sent a note to the Cathedral CurtEastPoint Nov 2014 #1

Agreed! hrmjustin Nov 2014 #2

Beautiful. okasha Nov 2014 #3

Except for the women who have to kneel in the back, or, if menstruating, not attend at all. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #4

This post is over the line. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #5

Yes it is. And I'm displeased that a photo of outright bigotry would be described as 'beautiful' AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #6

YOUR post was over the line. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #7

The gungeon is a safe haven. one does not go in there and post things about AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #8

You can do that but you should also know I am contacting the other hosts about your posts here. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #9

I will wait and see what the other hosts feel about this issue. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #10

No go to ATA or I will. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #11

Done. Are you calling into question my convictions? AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #12

No I don't think you are a coward. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #13

No trolling. No bullshit. No meta. I am genuinely surprised AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #14

I am suprised you came in here to start this. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #15

I am dissapointed to see this thread, again, in this venue. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #16

Your implications were ugly. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #17

So it's not that I was materially wrong. It's that I could have been nicer about it? AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #18

Your manner had a lot to do with it. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #19

That's an uncharitable interpretation. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #20

I think it is rather dead on. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #21

This is not about Okasha. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #22

Well we shall see what she thinks. i know her well enough to say she will not be amused. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #23

I will accept the admin's decision without question, even if the answer is AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #24

I look foward to his response but I doubt he will call you a troll. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #25

I reiterate my dissapointment that this is not an incendiary issue to you. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #28

The National Cathedral does not get public money! hrmjustin Nov 2014 #31

Yes it does. Upkeep and Maintenence. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #33

ok I stand corrected. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #34

I'll call him a troll and save admin the trouble. okasha Nov 2014 #40

He has been banned for one month. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #41

I have no idea why I'm being brought into this. Goblinmonger Nov 2014 #43

You did a two man tap dance. Warren Stupidity Nov 2014 #49

Now it is. rug Nov 2014 #51

as a host I ask you not to post in here. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #52

then block me and stop being such a nuisance about it every time I post here Warren Stupidity Nov 2014 #53

I am contacting the other hosts but I am telling you not to post in here anymore or I will block u! hrmjustin Nov 2014 #54

ah "my mere presence" - I forgot. Warren Stupidity Nov 2014 #60

Actually it's your hatred and disdain for believers el_bryanto Nov 2014 #67

I've never expressed hatred or disdain for all believers. Warren Stupidity Nov 2014 #68

That's pretty deceitful isn't it? Of course you have el_bryanto Nov 2014 #69

Make up your mind, hatred, disdain, or despicable? Warren Stupidity Nov 2014 #70

Intellectually naive - those aren't the words you used in the past. el_bryanto Nov 2014 #71

Are you saying believers are naive? If so take that argument out of this room now. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #72

I pick . . . . rug Nov 2014 #80

No, never! rug Nov 2014 #78

Oh, you poor thing. I know how you dislike hateful language. rug Nov 2014 #77

I take it your opinion on everybody in this room who isn't an atheist hasn't changed? el_bryanto Nov 2014 #55

Of course you don't. rug Nov 2014 #50

Other than these two responses on this thread Goblinmonger Nov 2014 #56

Maybe you should consult rule 3. rug Nov 2014 #76

Notably not answering the point at hand. Classic rug. Goblinmonger Nov 2014 #82

"in months". Ill give you that. Of course it's mid-November already. rug Nov 2014 #83

I am sorry you were mentioned. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #86

Thank you Goblinmonger Nov 2014 #87

Appreciatedand my best to you. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #88

I have edited the post to remove your name. okasha Nov 2014 #90

No, that's the clear implication. rug Nov 2014 #29

Yeah. You were materially wrong. rug Nov 2014 #27

Do tell. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #30

I did tell. Numerous tiimes. Directly to you in the Religion thread on this. rug Nov 2014 #32

It was described as 'beautiful'. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #35

There is a beautiful aspect to this. And a disturbing aspect. rug Nov 2014 #36

That's always possible. But sans acknowledment of the hand in hand content of the photo AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #37

That's because we're all deluded. rug Nov 2014 #38

We all have our moments. AtheistCrusader Nov 2014 #39

There was no "hand-waving" on this story in Religion. rug Nov 2014 #26

For the record I inform the room that Atheistcrusader has been banned for one month. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #42

That's a pity - and a month is an overreaction in my opinion. el_bryanto Nov 2014 #44

I don't like it anymore than you do but if we don't do these things this room will end up like the hrmjustin Nov 2014 #45

Some of them like to "test the waters" to the point of absurdity. kentauros Nov 2014 #46

I agree that some of them want that - because they see no real problem with how they treat el_bryanto Nov 2014 #47

To be honest, kentauros Nov 2014 #48

We have some very insightful non-theists posting in this group. okasha Nov 2014 #75

How "tolerant"... PoutrageFatigue Nov 2014 #57

I never called it beautiful but criticism of religion is not permitted in this room. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #58

Per the SOP... PoutrageFatigue Nov 2014 #59

We the hosts determine what is appropriate here. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #61

Regardless of the SOP? PoutrageFatigue Nov 2014 #62

which post are you complaing about? hrmjustin Nov 2014 #63

I'm not complaining about any post... PoutrageFatigue Nov 2014 #64

Well the owner of the site did back us up today. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #65

Ah, okay. "You may apply your SOP in as arbitrary a fashion as you see fit"...yes? PoutrageFatigue Nov 2014 #66

Covering a screen with spittle that spells out "misogyny" is not discussing. rug Nov 2014 #79

Look, I know you and the rest are trying to point out to us rubes kentauros Nov 2014 #73

I see we now have a serial trolling. okasha Nov 2014 #74

The dog whistles are blowing. rug Nov 2014 #81

My response to the whole fit of idiocy: okasha Nov 2014 #84

Lol, that cat could get a workout here. No wonder he's grumpy. rug Nov 2014 #85

For their disruptions both PoutrageFatigue and Warren Stupidity are banned from this room. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #89

Well done. okasha Nov 2014 #91

Not your fault. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #92

As Justin stated, it's not your fault. kentauros Nov 2014 #94

I fully support the hosts' actions. goldent Nov 2014 #93
