it'll be civilised, the trolls won't be in there often cause it won't be as active as TLR so they'll weed themselves out

the thread about Satan and music was dope with a lot of spiritual content, what you choose to label as "tinfoil hat stuff" is subjective my dude
You really thought the Satan thread was good? it was cringe, with 80% sources coming from fringe websites. I'm sure there was a post about music company blood sacrifice and rituals, as usual with no receipts.

I would have thought the coli owners would want to reduce the aggression, conspiracy, homophobic and cac supremacy talk on the site.

i think some of y'all are not thinking broadly enough about what all could be discussed in a religion and spirituality subforum

chakra meditation
holistic healing
astral projection
psychedelics
Tibetan bowls
yoga meditation
astrology
uses of sage and incense

all could be covered on top of the wide variety of religions in the world, it could be great if enough people participated

You can't stomp out trolling.

of course not but it can be properly moderated to avoid discussion derailing into disrespectful territory just like any other subforum on here

Well...I speak only for myself then.

I have approached everyone on here in a most respectful manner when debating religion, kind sir.

IT WASN'T A SHOT AT YOU. TO BE HONEST, YOU HAVE TO A BE A REAL a$$hole FOR ME TO EVEN REMEMBER NAMES. I USUALLY JUST SCROLL RIGHT PAST IT.

"Tinfoil" stuff is your opinion, which you are totally allowed to have.

On the other hand, if it's truly "Tinfoil" info who would it hurt if the tinfoil folks had a forum to discuss tinfoil type things?
No it's fine, if it's a tinfoil site. Is the coli that?

there should be a separate one for african spirituality to be honest.

Hi....are you able to expand on this?

Thank you, and yes.

Now let me say this first, i have nothing against criticism. Any principled stand or viewpoint I take must be able to withstand criticism. And if not, I need to abandon it.

There are some people where who are ready and willing to truly engage on that level without letting their feelings and emotions and projections get in the way.

Most people are not (on both sides). And in addition to that, most questions people pose as groundbreaking have been answered by theologians time and time again long before you and i were even conceived. So the discussion gets frustrating at that point.

It would be like you and I having a conversation about the future of storage mediums and you keep on expressing your fears about magnetic read/write heads.:gucci:
Its been discussed, its been addressed, its been made obsolete, we gotta move on.:camby:




I know my analogy is straight basura but i'm at work trying to reapportion some LUNs :mjgrin:



Good point, maybe i'm being too cynical.

Trolls don't like to venture outside of the Booth, TLR, and the Coliseum

Excellent points...

Even if you are being a bit cynical :mjgrin:

I think it would be great if this thread could get the numbers to be featured so those outside of TLR could vote and leave opinions ....

Informed Discussion on Breaking News, Politics, World Events, Science, Careers, Education & Religion. No Ignorance or Trolling

Higher Learning

and right now it's mostly news, politics, world events, science and education :yeshrug: a break-off for religion and spirituality makes a lot of sense

the vote is 40 to 18 in favor, why don't you cats that are so against the idea just not enter the subforum? i fail to see how it ultimately affects you in anyway

I personally think that there also varying levels of "spiritual" threads. Some would be far more accepted than others.

I had a stammering problem when I was very young. My speech therapist was a yogi. I could make a thread about she wanted me to do deep mediation and stretching in order help me with my stammering, and how this clashed with my fathers strict anglican household.

I think a thread like that would do well even in a space like TLR.

However if I made a thread about Transubstantiation, and the Anglo-Catholic belief that the communion elements actually become the physical body and blood of Jesus Christ during Eucharistic consumption... that thread will be chalk full of "Breh people actually fukkin believe that :gucci:? Cacs :scust: "


This is why i rarely even enter any thread related to religion. :yeshrug:

Besides I get my fill talking to my dad anyway
