Can we make a religion forum? I figure, if we have a politics forums, why not a religious one? That way, we can keep at least a little bit of the stupid religious threads off of general. Honestly, I'm tired of hearing it. It's all just the same stuff people have said before.

Maybe I'm asking for way too much.

I agree. It would be a great place to discuss religion.

And it would keep all those "RELIGIONZ IS DUMBB" Threads of here

Or we could just make a rule outright banning these flame-bait topics. Seems like a good idea to me. But apparently I'm crazy.

For the purposes of this forum, Politics includes the topics of Current Affairs, History, Religion, and any other major flame-bait.

Because any religion is faux, therefore there should only be a faux forum for it... General :D

Did that make sense?

Well, the purpose of general is for anything. Sure they're annoying topics, but we can't keep splitting up the general into tons of uninhabited forums.

Everybody would ignore it and post their threads in General anyway.

This.
There's like 5 word descriptions of each forum on the main page, but everyone ignores them.
Examples:
-Video game threads in the general forum
-Flash threads in the programming forum

and so on.

Sure there could be a religion forum but then there would have to be users that just post in that forum and the site would get overrun with religion and messages.

Because religious threads already have a place, the political forum. That's where they're posted.

Why not a military forum for army threads? Why not a philosophy forum? Or how about a news forum where we talk about recent events broadcast on the news? Maybe a company forum where we can argue about what's better, coca cola or pepsi?

The reality of it is, people talk about more than politics in the political forum, yet since religion is a touché subject that gets the most attention.


It's not the lack of crimes that values your morality but your capacity for contrition.

Religion is politics. Most discussions about that will take place in Politics, General for the more wide ranging subjects and Clubs & Crews for the more organised discussions on one sort of religion.

It's been covered.
