Welcome coalsoffire. (Now that's a name I wouldn't have thought of.)

You are correct. The forum is much too male-oriented. That's not by design. We used to have more sisters join in, but I think the intense doctrinal discussions bored many of them. That's our loss. But I think the doctrinal stage was something some of us needed to go through in order to figure out what we really believed.

I would hope the pool of contributors becomes more balanced between the sexes.

As for acronyms, point out a few that confuse you and I'll translate.

Also, tell us. Why rejoin the LC after 16 years?
