I'm new here and I cannot figure it out. Many of the posts I read here refer to God and Christianity. I just want to know so I know what's going on.

40smale:<p>This site is not Christian site, although we have many people of that bent actively participating. There has been very little "force-feeding" of God; although discussions centering around God are certainly welcome.<p>Dr. Harley's work is fundamentally behavioral-based in its approach. Which is great: you can be Hindi, Muslim, agnostic, or an aethist and still apply these principles to make a much better marriage.

Thanks. I wasn't sure what the situation was and didn't want to offend anyone.

glad you asked that 40smale. i was even beginning to think this whole think was nothing more than somekind of trick being used to get the message across. kinda like the signs sometimes seen on the interstate for free coffee. when you stop for coffee, your greeted by religious people. but if this was a trick, i was still enjoying it and getting lots of good stuff. that's why i've stayed. i have to disregard a lot of stuff though because i'm agnostic and i'll probably catch hell for the revelation.
