"We think organised
religion must learn to laugh at itself before it will be taken seriously,"
says Simon Jenkins. "But shipoffools.com is not a campaign. There are enough
of those around already. We are a 24/7 rolling conversation, with the Christian
faith at the heart of it all, where all traditions are respected and people
with little or no faith are welcome, too."
Fully and fiercely independent, shipoffools.com has 12 bulletin boards and
an online membership of more than 5000 people. Four administrators and 30
board hosts - many living in the US and all unpaid volunteers - encourage
discussion, keep things on track and help settle disputes. It is now one of
the largest Christian discussion spaces on the internet.
