• Sounds pretty typical of a "christian" group. Different is dangerous, you know. *rolls eyes* I'm glad you're not afraid to be yourself.

• I wouldn't mind if our kids played together! But I don't really care much about other people's religion. Unless they're weirdos.

• I honestly feel like kids should be exposed to different beliefs. I realize that you said you're not really vocal about yours, but I don't think it's right to expose kids to only one point of view. I mean, that's not much different from not letting your kid play with kids of a different ethnicity, or whose parents are homosexual, etc. I don't think anyone benefits if you're kids grow up sheltered. They'll find out about the real world eventually.
  
  And I think it's ridiculous that you were removed from the group because of that. But, then again, you probably wouldn't have wanted to join a group that would remove you based on that anyway. Good luck finding a better play group.

• there are so many religious back grounds in my family, if we didnt let them play/associate with people who were different, they would never leave the house.

  sorry you had to go through that!

• I could care less and most times I don't know what someone's religion is unless they mention it.

• I'm agnostic and as long as they're not pushing it on my kid that we're "going to hell" because I don't believe in "god" then I'm fine and damn dandy :]. I'd have my kid play with yours any day of the week, as long as you're a good person.

• I agree with caiti... hence why I went from Christian to Agnostic many years ago... I'm so going to that site to sign up and see what happens... isn't it against the law for them to remove you due to religious beliefs?  Maybe we should make a new playgroup with a tag saying 'all Christian's will be removed'... I bet that would go over well with them!

•  I don't care what a person's beliefs are. As long as nobody tries to convert me, our kids can play all the time.

• I must not be a typical christian. And my church too. I would never tell my son he couldn't play with someone just because their parents were athiest. Now if they were telling my child that what we believed was stupid/wrong anything like that i probably wouldn't. but i have friends who are athiest and i'd let my son play with their kids if they had any! lol
