  1. Belief.Net vs. ReligiousTolerance.Org
  2. Religious Education Forums vs. Interfaith Forums

Previously on Religious Tolerance Website Death Match:
Belief.Net took on ReligiousTolerance.Org in a brawl that left bodies broken and kept a blood-soaked audience on the edge of their seat. When the dust had settled, Belief.Net had managed barely to scrape together a victory by using toothpicks made from Christ’s Cross to reattach her arm and then using boiling hot holy oil to destroy ReligiousTolerance.Org’s zombified remains…

Second Match:
Religious Education Forums vs. Interfaith Forums

Deciding which forum is better cannot be easy when you have two class-acts such as the Religious Education Forums and the Interfaith Forums. Both forums have the advantage of easy navigation, large active member-base, and a over abundance of discussions. In terms of which of these two forums are the largest, the Religious Education Forums have three times the number of members and seven times the number of threads. Larger, however, doesn’t always mean better. Many of the members of Religious Education Forums are also members of Interfaith Forums, so we can’t claim that it is the members that make one forum better then the other. The rules are a little more relaxed in the Religious Education Forums, but that can be construed as a possible negative as much as it could be a positive.

The deciding factor in regards to this matter is the members’ intention. If you want to join one of these forums to get to know people of different religious beliefs on a closer level, you will want to join the Interfaith Forums. With it’s smaller size, you are more likely to be seen by and engage with other regular posters. As a result of it’s stricter rules, you can be assured that your time will not be wasted by advertising and proselytizing. However, if you are looking for a good argument & want challenging discussion, the Religious Education Forums will more likely be your style. Debate is welcomed in this forum and has areas set up especially for debating.

Oh, who am I kidding by trying to be “fair and balanced”? I honestly feel that the Religious Education Forums are better all around. Interfaith Forums frown upon links to other sites being posted, even if you are adding to the conversation. That strictness chaffs my buttocks, and I don’t like it! Forums are one avenue where bigger is actually better; more opinions, more discussions, and more people make for more possible blog readers - and that’s really why we’re there, isn’t it?

Erm… Well, that’s just my opinion.
