…that won’t rip you apart for voicing doubts, questioning doctrine and asking strange questions about the religion. Er, something like the Straight Dope for Christians (if such a thing could ever exist). ---

[QUOTE=Cardinal] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian\_Forums](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Forums) [/QUOTE] I’m a member of Christian Forums. I don’t think it is similar to the Dope. There are just too many, “I saw a naked statue today, am I going to Hell?” type questions. ---

[QUOTE=ExtraKun] …that won’t rip you apart for voicing doubts, questioning doctrine and asking strange questions about the religion. [/QUOTE] Actually, I think that describes the Great Debates forum here pretty well. You usually get into problems there if you _ **don’t** _ voice doubts and question doctrine. On a more serious note, you could try the [Catholic Online Forum](http://forum.catholic.org/) boards. They do, of course, mainly take a Catholic viewpoint, but there are forums there for non-Catholic Christians and non-Christians. They are a very good place for frank discussions about religion; very informational and not at all preachy. ---

[QUOTE=dalej42] I’m a member of Christian Forums. I don’t think it is similar to the Dope. There are just too many, “I saw a naked statue today, am I going to Hell?” type questions. [/QUOTE] My point was more the links and mentions of multiple boards on one page.
