The Interfaith Group is a safe haven group. As such, criticism, disagreement, awkward questions and the like are not tolerated. Here is the SOP of the Interfaith Group:


A safe haven that provides opportunities for people of all faiths, spiritual leanings and non-belief to discuss religious topics and events in a positive and civil manner, with an emphasis on tolerance. Criticisms of individual beliefs or non-belief, or debates about the existence of higher power(s) are not appropriate in this group.


There you go, Gil. An open group that accepts all points of view, and it prohibits any content that would make believers feel uncomfortable! I'll even provide a link for you:
