The World’s Largest Coalition of Nontheists and Nontheist Communities!
A discussion of the rules: rule #8
The Rule
The Reason
There are a number of reasons for this. First, and most important is safty. Many religions have pronounced stiff penalties for apostasy and many religious followers have bent their will toward harming the non-religious as a matter of course. Because we want Atheist Nexus to be a place where people feel safe enough to let their guard down and just relax among like-minded people, we do not allow religious people to create accounts here.
Also, it's just another kind of spam. We don't allow spam here as per rule #9
The Action
Religious proselytizers are banned from the site.

Err, do we have them doing this? I wasn't aware that it was a problem. I didn't even think Jews did proselytizing.
Your use of the word 'advertise' makes me think you're referring to the ads around the edges of every page. Is that what you mean? If that's the case, then we have no control of it. That's the stuff that Google Ad Services throws at us. We get Muslim and Mormon ads, as well.
If you mean the ads off to the right which are specifically purchased for this site, such as the one for Dr. Darrel Ray's book ... I dunno. If a Jewish Humanist group wanted to buy an ad there, I wouldn't really have a problem with it. I can see how some people might see it as a bit of a gray area, but I dunno. They're not really a religion, just a philosophy, sort of like the Buddhists. I agree with almost nothing in their philosophy, but that doesn't mean it's a religion.

Amen! Now how about a prayer!
Our Father, who aren't in heaven
Hollow is thy name
Thy kingdom is done,
Free will has come
On Earth
As there is no heaven

Well, yeah. The conversation threads are Google-search-able. Don't have to be signed in to read them, I don't think.
