This subforum would be run on the same rules, that it is the accepted view for that subforum. This would help keep things neutral within the userbase.
For clarification, this would be an equivalent where things can be examined logically without subjective belief, to complement the existence of a subforum for non-scientific topics. Questions are invited. In particular, I would like to know the reason behind opposition to this when it has been proposed to keep the forums neutral without implicitly supporting any one view. Note that this is NOT an official decision, but merely to determine if there is a degree of support for keeping official implicit support neutral. I am willing to give a spiritual subforum a chance - I just ask that people give I'm willing to help moderate it, even, to prevent arguments. I just ask that people give a chance for an equivalent, even if they will never use it themselves.

Pretty sure having a place for people to talk about their spiritual views, religious or not, without being attacked for them isn't supporting anything except tolerance.

In my honest opinion, I regretfully say this to those who voted no:
How can you do this in good conscience? You are hypocritical to give all sorts of reasons for why a Spirituality subforum should be implemented and then not allow a secular subforum. I mean it. I really can't believe these results. ![]() |

As Moco has said, I am giving the spirituality subforum a chance. I'm willing to help moderate it, even, to prevent arguments. Why are people not willing to do the same for a logic one? You do not need to use it, just let people have somewhere for their views.

I don't have a problem with a secular subforum, I just don't think it's necessary to have one in order to maintain a "balance," as if anything would be offset within the community by having a spirituality forum.

That is, one where people with non-spiritual views can discuss those.

Second of all, having it just for the sake of some perceived balance is silly. We add forum sections because they will productive and active. Next thing I know, someone is going to want a "Pollution" forum to balance Environmentalism. I voted against it because I don't think it will actually be used, and the only reason it's being suggested is because people oppose the spirituality thing. I don't think it will see any lasting use, and I vote against it both as an user AND an admin, on that basis. |

If it gets voted for, we will implement it, the same as anything else (within reason and legality). My personal views have zero to do with what happens here, policy wise. I get one vote as an user, the same as you. That should be the same for every admin here.

I am not suggesting that the rules of the vote be changed. I am not suggesting that the final score shouldn't be accounted for. I am only appalled at these results, sincerely. I just can't believe it.

I've raised legitimate concerns about the suggested subforum, and this is a suggested way of balancing them out, to neutralise them - it means they people who want theirs get theirs, and people who would have otherwise opposed it still get an arrangement they are happy with.
