Should there be a politics forum?
SBG Math Guy:
Previously I gave a recommendation to have a religious section.
Just like you ShavedForNow, I thought everybody would be respectable and
that given that most people here are adults, I thought it would be simple. Everyone
would be respectful.
Little did I know that I would have to delete that entire topic myself. Some members
who hardly make any contributions to this site were very much against it calling
religion fiction :/O
So unfortunately things like religion and politics tend to bring out there worst out of people sometimes . cheers.

That is too bad, Math Guy. Even most religious people understand that religion isn't logical or scientific by nature, but that doesn't stop people from having fascinating discussions about theology, or about religious writings as literature. Like Galileo said, "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." Oh, well. :(

nope...not here.
Personally, I am very passionate about politics. I have found over the years that most* people are very closed minded about thier political views. In some cases, rightly so. Much like abortion, nothing one person says is going to change the mind or opinion of another. As others have suggested, there are many websites and forums on the www to discuss politics. I think this thread is reason enough to end the conversation. Just my 2 cents.

PLEASE! NO. No offense. No body will agree and it will do nothing but spark bickering.
