Well, after reading cosmo's thread in B&M and posting several times, I have decided to take this to the forum where it would get a more serious yeild of answers. From what I gather of the thread cosmo beleives that Zok is pushing the christian religion upon us by choosing "Noah's Ark" for our fairly new animal forum. http://tinyurl.com/qgmr8

My take on it is that Zok is no more pushing religion on us than calenders are, yes it is a silly analogy, but I beleive the stink cosmo is raising to be silly. To me cosmo holds skewed veiws but religion is not the topic I am most knowledgable of. So, does anyone feel that Zok is trying to push christianity on us? Or do you think that it might be possible in a subtle manner?

Peer pressure fails on the interwebs.

Pushing things onto people fails on the interwebs.

That's why we all always disagree.

QFT!

Besides for beliefs/thoughts/whatever-the-fuck to be pushed onto you, you have to let them be pushed onto you. if you dont like it you have the power to ignore it.

it is just a small thing, really. i mean it is just a name.

cosmo got bent over nothing. Someone who is that concerned about the possibility of being swayed by something as petty as an internet forum name that makes a glib reference to a Bible passage must not be too secure in their personal convictions to begin with.

Meh, I was wrong.

cosmo doesnt have to read Noah's Ark, nor does he have to read totse.

Thats nothing more than him complaining that people talk too much about God in a Christian forum...

Do I think religion (more specifically Christianity) is pushed on me by society?

yes.

Do I think Zok is pushing Christianity on me by naming the animal forum Noah's ark?

No.

I think that Zok used it as a reference to animals because if you are religious or not most everyone knows or has heard of the story at one time or another.

Noah's Ark can be considered a reference to an extremely popular and well known story that has been told throughout human history.
