Sprituality: A Comment

[handsoff241]

---

Hello, specially to sir spring,

This is not a grudge thread nor is a sore comment on what sir spring did on this section, as a matter of fact I am personally glad you did it.

But please let me express a bit of my two cents on this

Religion is not even SPIRITUALITY so help me guys and gals in cleaning up and making this section a hangout haven for the weirdo's like me and and all of you.

I am not against the idea that this section really needs dire attention, nagpasad na lang ang mga posters who violated so much on the basic forum rules, especially with regards to RESPECT.

But isn't religion, spirituality?
define:spirituality - Hanapin sa Google
Spirituality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Most of the discussions, especially the latest (and the most perverted discussions) in this forum's section, bites more into the spirituality side and not into the occult side. Hence hot religious debates and flame wars.

Maybe this is a call for us, istoryans in the SnO section, to be more polite and be more observant to the forums rules, especially to the respect part.

My two cents...

Subcategories or subforums (similar to the Buy and Sell) may be added to allow discussions only on specific subjects and their sub-topics so as not to spoil the whole board with threads that promote a particular religion as well prevent unsolicited ("spamming for god" types) threads.

Example:

Sacred Scripture (Interpretation, Teachings/Doctrine)

- Bible
- Koran
- Vedas
- Tanakh
- Verse of the Day

Catholicism

- Catechism
- Summa
- Festivities
- Activities
- Saints etc.

Protestantism/Reformist Christians

- Evangelicalism
- Fundamentalism
- Born Again
- Calvinism
- INC
- etc.

Islam

- Islam 101
- Jihad
- Ramadan
- Sunni/Shiite
- Mecca
- etc.

Hinduism and Buddhism (Core beliefs and teachings)

- Reincarnation (Samsara/Moksha)
- Deities
- Upanishads
- Confucianism
- Eight-fold path
- etc.

Others (Judaism/Kabbalah, Taoism, Interfaith)

- Kabbalah
- Interfaith Dialogue
- Taoism
- Shintoism
- etc.

Occultism, Supernatural & Paranormal

- Ghosts/Haunted Houses
- Astrology
- Tarot Card reading
- Wicca
- Feng Shui
- Talisman/Orasyon
- Etc.

Issues and Controversies (Criticism, Debate, etc) (Note: This is the only area where debates are allowed. Strictly no similar threads to be opened)

- Creationism vs. Evolution
- Noah's Ark
- Stigmata
- UFO sightings
- Theism vs. Atheism
- Etc.

Metaphysics (Theology, Philosophy, Mysticism, Atheism)

- Moral Theology/ Meta-ethics
- Atheism
- Theosophy
- Agnosticism
- Gnosticism
- Theology (Christian Theology, Philosophy of Religion)
- Etc.

The mods may expand or refine the above.

I know it would take some time to reconstruct the S&O board base on the above proposal but it surely does take away the headaches of the mods and well-meaning posters.

good mr brownpose

i think dili man siguro matawag nga against na sa forum rules ang religion discussion...its a thread were each of us can share an ideas and thoughts..

in fact daghan sab ko nakat-unan aning mga thread nila....dre rako nakahibawo about islam, buddhism and other christian religion sectors..

peace...

@brown... nice idea, but it's too diverse, it will surely leave behind a trace of uninhabited sections. We are only a handful in here who discuss things and not everyone agree with everyone else hence the discussion is propagated continuously due to our disagreement.

Did you all notice? We discuss things here our of disagreement!

The move don't need to come from iStorya.net, but from us istoryans, we need to discipline ourselves.

I think SnO is exclusive para sa mga borokento na mga tawo... syaro sa pila na ka tuig ani na forum same questions repeated over and over again... haaay! endless kay mga tawo cge himo og new thread same thought para lalisan.

Kana kang brow gi propose ok mana pero Im sure this will never gonna be a peaceful forum. Bsan asa sa thread naa man gud mo lalis bsan walay angay lalison...

Bottom line is. If they believe it so be it. If you don't then stay away para walay samok, u don't believe in the first place right? but mga brayt boys always there to promote they are smarter than the REST.

Hands ok unta imo gi propose we can try. If attitude gani problema hands bsan unsaon nmo naa jud na ang sakit... too bad we needed unity badly in this country, not even a single day we have it in this forum.

--- as far as i know my religion is spiritual. But can we exempt RELIGION on this FORUM... Please lang unta... pero CULT AND OCCULTISM are branch out from a religion so that what makes religion active on this FORUM.

What the MOD is proposing is that people who does not believe in SUPERNATURAL or anything that is beyond on your senses, this FORUM is NOT for your so stay OUT para d ma lawgaw ang FORUM.

exactly why all of these belong to a more general thread, not spirituality, not religion, not metaphysics (an attempt to be so far) not esotericism, not whatever-B*-you-have-under-your-hat; these posts basically belongs to the section we call Humor.
