Agree, this is what I have been trying to say about this board, which is supposed to be a spiritual board. Spiritual themes like these are more for sharing than discussion, if someone don't like it they can move on.
There's a bit of a problem with having the philosophy, spiritual and sceptics board as one, the way I see it. That being it's not so much of a spiritual board when it's as full of sceptics ready to tear down everything you say or see it as a goal to try and disprove anything of spiritual or religious orgin because they don't believe in it. Kind of negates the value of a board like that.
Like, if you were to have a powerful experience with prayer or healing, either performed by you or someone else and wanted to tell people about it (for the ones that would be receptive to it) it's more likely the thread would turn into an argument over whether such a thing even exists and the value of organised religion and could easily get closed. I get that it's a discussion board so everyone can express their views but a spiritual/religious board becomes a bit useless when there are just as many who don't believe in it.
