I posted to see if anyone had the same religious beliefs as I did and within hours my post was deleted.
am I right in thinking now that mumsnet is happy for you to discuss your beliefs but only if they align with their own?
if you’re allowing discussions on religion then you should be open to discussions on all beliefs.
my religion is recognised as a belief system in the us and has all the same legal rights as any other.

these are the tenets I live by.
There are Seven
FUNDAMENTAL TENETS
I
One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

II
The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

III
One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

IV
The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

V
Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

VI
People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

VII
Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

does that sound offensive and scary to you to be deleted?

Hi there, MrsBun,

Thanks for getting in touch. We've had a hunt back for your thread and think we have located it. We're a site for all religions (and none, too), though we understand Satanism is a belief system rather than a religion. But it was being reported as trolling and we felt that the thread was probably designed to cause a bit of outrage so we took it down for that reason.

Hope that answers your question but if you'd like to discuss it further please do drop us a line at [email protected] or you can just hit report on your post above and send us a message that way.

Honestly not trolling or trying to cause outrage literally just trying to find likeminded parents.

Have you tried Netmums @MrsBunTheBakersMum?

Apologies. Flowers In all seriousness, we're sorry if we read your thread the wrong way, but we aren't sure you will find an awful lot of likeminded satanists on a parenting website (though we never cease to be surprised at some of the niche interests here!)

We're pleased to hear you weren't trolling anyway, but we're afraid threads like that are going to be read by many users that way, we think, so aren't likely to go well or always be taken seriously, even if we leave them up. So we did feel that one was best taken down, to be honest.

We hope you continue to enjoy the other areas of Mumsnet though.

Hello OP

We're sorry for any upset caused here - that's never our intention.

Can you start a new thread in our ask me anything topic? As other posters have mentioned, it would be a good way to introduce the topic and invite conversation. We're happy to keep an eye on it.
