Conditions:

Religious grief support is not welcome in posts or comments. This group will provide a safe space for atheists and other non-religious people to share and process the death of their baby. Because bereavement is sometimes the catalyst for questioning or letting go of religious beliefs, people who are still struggling with these issues are encouraged to join. However, the page is not intended as a venue for debate, but as a space for shared compassion and support.

A post that promotes religious belief in God will result in a request to remove the post. The internet is full of faith-based support for grief and loss; this is one of few pages free of it and will be kept that way to the best of the moderator's ability. While believers may join and participate on the page, they will be required to follow these guidelines. If a member continues to ignore these guidelines following a request from an administrator, they will be blocked from this site.

Do Not Post that you are praying for us or our loved ones. If you are a believer who is genuinely re-evaluating your beliefs, you are welcome to share your experiences with that process. But please respect the boundary between expressing your own thoughts about your faith and proselytizing to others.

Further, any post or comment attacking anyone for lack of belief in a higher power or afterlife will be deleted, as will any post or comment attacking a member for still holding any such beliefs themselves. While this site is primarily meant for non-believers, it is intended to be a safe space for those questioning and letting go as well.

Please limit posts including advertisements or post from commercial sites to only products that relate to baby loss or recovery. Please limit these posts to once per week per product or advertisement. These posts will be removed if abused.

Participation:

Once you have been added to the group, you are invited to post memories, thoughts, feelings or questions you would like to share with other members. Memorial photos and videos are also welcome. Feel free to comment with compassion and kindness on other members' posts. But please recognize that everyone grieves differently and that we are all at different places in the process of grieving.

Similarly, some members are at different places in the process of letting go of long-held beliefs in god or an afterlife. Your opinions and advice on this struggle may be sought, but this is not a space for debate. At all times, please show respect and compassion for beliefs and experiences that are different from your own.

Please create a folder in the group to organize and keep your memorial photos of your baby. Also feel free to put pictures of your rainbow baby or babies in the "Another Kind Of Rainbow" folder.

As a member of this group, you will periodically receive a thought, question, quote or link in your News Feed addressing various aspects of grief. These posts will often focus on grieving a death without faith. In addition, the page will serve as a central location on the web where members can link to writing about grief and loss that is coming from an atheist or other non-religious perspective. Bloggers are strongly encouraged to post links to blog entries on this topic on the Baby Loss Support for Agnostic/Atheist Moms wall.
