Honest question. Is this site a religious site?

It seems to me there's a large amount of Christian posts. I've also noticed a fair amount of disapproval for other religions.

I am an atheist. I don't really want to be part of a christian site posing as a parenting site.

So is this actually a Christian place?

A thought prompted by Look, anti-creationist beer

..to complement your anti-creationist Natural Selection biscuit variety pack.

Before they started mentioning portion sizes, a colleague did ask if an olive in a drink counted as one ... by the time we added a glace cherry on top of a cake, the fruit in the jam doughnut, and all the stuff in a jug of Pimms, we reckoned it was pretty easy really.... grin

Shh Rustybear, you are onto me.

Jaffa Cakes - 1 (well,they are orangy)
Carrot Cake - 2
Banana Sundae - 3

Etc.

Hmm. So why have I put all this weight on?

However, classifying carrot cake as one of your '5 portions for a healthy diet' might be a little contentious.....

Oh good (chomps on carrot cake)

I am trying to diet ATM so it is ALL I had for dinner the other night.

Well, if marshmallows are officially biscuits (as the Inland Revenue have finally admitted) I'm sure you could make a case for carrot cake

Indeed. Is carrot cake actually classifiable as biscuit? Because it is what I am eating right now and is v.v.nice.

Right you are then, Ted. Shall we ask Mrs Doyle for some more biscuits?

Ah. That would be an ecumenical matter. wink

If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
