Right Kobuk.
I have Ham radio as another hobby. It has tenants such as promote the state of the art, do not compete with commercial broadcasters, do no harm / interference, experiment, no encryption allowed, represent your country as if all can hear you (because they can), help community and country in time of need, do not let ham radio take priority over life and family, do not talk about hot button topics, be polite and considerate. In many ways it is like furry. It is just to have fun and learn. Furry is like that to me, I guess.
I believe some ones religious beliefs or lack of, or whatever, is personal, and even in families/spousal settings even. Sometimes no point in sharing anything on it. Ones belief is rarely same as anothers. Science is supposed to be verifiable by all, regardless of belief and is even supposed to be challenged periodically. Science and religion for an individual can coexist even. Anyway...blah not really the topic here.
I know people's lives will bleed into the fandom, and sadly that can be part of their hateful stuff, or just differing opinions. If we as furs get so closed of to all of the things we do not like, we turn into what we may not like. Or at least that is what I wonder about.
