with religious bullshit? There is already another forum for that. And no, religion is not philosophy.

I thought it has always been like this?
IMO there are roughly 3 main groups of posters here:
- Skeptics
- Apologists
- Believers
Groups may mingle over varying matters.

Posters in the other forum talk about religion in a positive light, whereas posters here generally do not.

i believe in keeping the two separate as well myself, in fact, i dont find any use in religion at all, but for people who have those beliefs im guessing theres no way to separate the two being as philosophy deals with deep fundemental questions and religion attempts to steer you away from deep fundemental questions by giving you hollow superficial answers.

Nope. Religions are philosophies, but it doesn't go both ways.

The 'religious questions' are by no means inaccessible or distinct from philosophy. It is the question of methodology that differentiates philosophy from religion.

Why is the philosophy, sociology and psychology forum being over-run with religious bullshit?
Well, I won't disagree that religion is bullshit. Be that as it may, it can definitely fall under the Sociology rubric. I argued against adding that to the forum name during the last renaming round, but I was overruled.
And no, religion is not philosophy.
I'm not so sure about that given that there is an entire branch of philosophy dedicated to religion.

not to mention maybe people want to discuss the sociological and psychological aspects of religion.
Would it really be for the benefit of philosophy if you excluded wondering what it is about this world and human nature that has led to and perpetuates religion?

What the fuck are you talking about? Is what I said untrue in any way, shape, or form?
Are you alright there?

Then just out of curiosity, why do you remain moderating something that you despise?

Most of the threads about religion are not by people advocating religion. Most posts about religion seem to be done by orgone, diploid, poid and others that are criticizing religon.
