Oh Goodie!

My first badge!

What other kinds of badges are there, and what do I have to do to get them?

 We also have badges for

 We also have badges for various levels of membership... bronze, silver, gold, and platinum, depending on how much you want to contribute to letting us heathens stay in operation.

We've got a science freak badge... I hesitate at the thought of a theist having one, but if you demonstrated superior understanding in a particular field of science, there's that...

We've got a superfan badge for people who just really love us a lot.

Of course, there's the troll badge, but you don't want that one... I hope.

Depending on your variety of theism, you might qualify for the Captain Pineapple badge... it's something like agnostic deist theist, or something like that, but you'd have to be pretty damn agnostic deist to qualify.  I think Pineapple and Eloise are the only theists who get special qualifiers.  They're so close to being atheists that one wonders why they're so reluctant to accept the moniker.

 Wow, Hambydammit!  It's like you've been assigned to me or something.

Are you my "Wormwood?"

 

It's all in the reflexes...

We call him Hamby, but there are those who would call him... "Big Brother".

 

He's alwaaaaays watching. Like Santa. But with the occasional smiting.

A place common to all will be maintained by none. A religion common to all is perhaps not much different.

While we're on the subject

While we're on the subject of badges, why was the "agnostic Deist" badge created in the first place as opposed to the reqular Theist?

 Hmm... Apparently my memory sucks.  I thought we created it for you.  Maybe it was for oh... what's that dude's name... RhadtheGhizmo.

Or, maybe Eloise.  In any case, one of our resident theists didn't like being lumped in with Christians, and felt like their particular brand of theism was deserving of a special category.

       Cpt. you have shown us all that you are not sure of what you are; believer- un- believer -  sortta believer, sortta-possibly-maybe-a-believer,  sortta-possibly-maybe-but not quite sure if you believe;  or maybe-possibly-not-but-can't-be-sure-but-someday-could-be-maybe-sure-or-not.

        When you come up with a deffinite answer about yourself let the rest of us know.   K?
