Aha, so the debate is the polemic version of discussions?

Whereas the discussion is a dialogue where the participants are just trying to explore the possibilities of the theme, without any attempts to win anyone over to "their side"?

Good explanation of the 2 definitions, Conan, however, I must say that I don't agree with you, as i think that they are flawed. Here are my reasons why:

#1- blah, blah, blah...

#2- random gibberish...

And it is for these reasons that I don't agree with Conan's definitions and believe that he is wrong.

I thought that maybe you could use an example, Terje!

No offence intented, Conan...I actually thought that your explanation was marvelously detailed!

A Slightly Different Point Of View

~With spirirtuality, I feel two things:

1. It's too general of a term
2. It would be me talking about me.

Khaelo made a good suggestion in directing toward a more specific spiritual discussion/debate. There are also threads for christians, hindus, muslims, Jews etc. And if you've checked around and still don't see a thread that might specifically address your spiritual prerogatives then simply start a new one.

Secondly, I really detest postings in the light of no member interaction. That is to say when a person makes a post and leaves. They don't talk to anyone, respond, or even continue along with the thread they started. I greatly dislike this. It's not only objectionable(in my opinion) but it's also quite rude! I mean seriously, if you simply want to post your own selfish musings then go create a weblog and get down with your bad self! This is a forum where people are communicating for God's sake! One particular member comes to the surface of my mind. If I decided to post in any one of the spiritually-directed discussions, then I'd want feedback and interaction even if it was spam. I like talking to people. It makes me feel like we don't have to be alone in this infinite expanse we call the universe.

Damn, whenever someone makes anonymous accusations like that, I always feel that they're directed at me. I guess it's the high school syndrome kicking in again.

Consis, who the hell cares if they stay in the post or not, i mean if they make a great post to share with everyone, then why does anyone care if they stay in it or not, they are sharing with us thier experience & thier life or in other forums, it's same thier sharing.

You get uptight for no reason, & was funnier when you wanted to know Bort more, & I dont even like the guy.

I was not referring to bort! I was talking about the reason I was upset with Lady_Milena. It has since been rectified but my concern remains the same for other such posting-types.

I actually thought that Consis was talking about me, because he started off with the spirituality thread then said that he hates the fact that I left after creating it.

Let me just say that I left because of the Svarog and Shiva conflict. No one else posted and the bitterness grew. Of course, now the thread is back on it's feet, and this is all because of Terje.

In any case, I think Acu has a point when he says that people might spark a debate and then leave a bit to see what happens. I also think this is a good thing. For example, I am not too involved in the Spirituality thread ATM, because of all this infinity talk. To me, it doesn't mean much. But I won't stop people talking about it, I'll even read it, I just can't relate to that form or expression of Spirituality.

Can we have a quick review of these 2 "lovely" Threads:

Harry
&
Lloyd


I'm not looking for any -QPs to be given or anything severe like that...maybe just move the Threads off to the VW and let them vanish, a la David Copperfield.

Also, I would like to nominate Ratmonky for a CP based on his interesting and "super cute" Thread:

The thread "Washington crossing the Delaware: Brillant or Dirty?" remains, as it was not in violation of the board rules.

The other was penalized and deleted as per the CoC. Multiple warnings had been issued for all of the prior similar posts filled with uncensored language.

Thanks Leo

ABout the spirituality thread; i know i come across as the debate intruder there, and i'm sorry. But thing is, i wouldnt say a word if people simply shared their spiritual experiences (like terje), although intimately i may have a lot to say. But i cant seem to hold myself, when you guys try to turn that thread into philosophy, where i believe i have something to contribute, and thats different than spirituality. PLease share whatever experiences you may have had. I wont bug u, promise.

Svarog,

That's very interesting what you have said. More of "experience" than philosophy you say? I find that very interesting indeed. I think it's very true to spirituality if a person shares an experience. I would also enjoy reading what many people have personally experienced in the way of spirituality.

Unfortunately for myself, I'm afraid I have no such experiences to share. I've never been visited, heard a soft voice, or saw some sort of divine sign that would lead me to think of my spirituality.

But myself absolutely does not speak for anyone else. I know my mother and father both have spiritual experiences that they constantly talk about in church, at the dinner table, and with friends. I have heard many many others as well. In fact sometimes I have felt that I'm being left out because so many people have had so many spiritual experiences.

I was wondering what ever happened to the idea of getting more stars in this forum?

I created a poll here and as you can see, the majority of voters wanted to see more QP's to the other side and some even said yes, but not as much as the other forum.

I've waited a while to see what would happen, but the poll was found in the 5th page and was getting buried fast. The voters have spoken, now it's time to find ways of getting more stars in the forum.

I think with every star given out, there should be a small explanation of why, so eveyone could see that it wasn't biased.

I am stating this because now that we can identify the threads with the most stars, we can clearly see all the threads with no stars (that should have some) in the forum.

At this point I think that the general concensus has been to increase the stars. The reason I haven't lately is simply my time constraints - I generally have been reading through to know what's going on, but not looking in terms of quality. If a post jumps out at me, I will give it a star without hesitation. So don't feel that the recent lack of stellar activity is due to us mods feeling we shouldn't be handing them out - its simply been that Asmodean and I both have had some real life interference with our HC activity

I will be looking a lot closer at posts within the next two weeks, so you will be seeing stars again - but I may not always have time for a summation as to why. In advance the reason will be that I felt it was deserved

As always, if you feel justification is needed - ask me here, on IM or thru HC email and I will let you know. If I feel I am awarding a post that will likely raise eyebrows you'll get the explanation as I give it, but for the most part the deal is that we use our descretion based on a number of factors that have already been  discussed, so it should be fairly self explanatory.

Can someone remove some of the off topic stuff in
"see you in the afterlife"?

pretty much everything after Romana's links to other threads dealing with death....

would be appreciated.



(it looks like the thread is going to become a "give your opinion of R" and I'd like to prevent that)
