I'm sorry if this isn't in the right spot, but this is where I thought it might belong. Forgive me if I'm mistaken, and please don't hesitate to move it if need be.

It seems to me that religious debates are very popular here at NationStates, (Usually Christian vs Non-Christian), so I would like to propose a new board for the sole purpose of religious threads and posts. Not only would this allow an area for relgious debating and discussion, but would also forge a place where people who share the same religious beliefs could get together and talk.

As I stated in a thread I started a month or 2 back, another popular topic is politics, in spite of the American taboos about these two topics (to avoid arguments and stuff like that). What not add one for that too? Or one where you can talk about either one?

Take Religion and Politics out of General and all you're left with is spam. Jolt already has a spam forum.

This has been raised umpteen times before, and the answer has always been "No". It's unlikely to change.

I agree with Frisbeeteria (usually do :P).

I haven't looked yet, but does Jolt have any forums here dedicated soley to religious discussions?

My only other thought would be that you should make your own forum. That way, you can also control who has access, and therefore avoid the flamers that regularly butt into any discussion about religious issues.

The closest thing Jolt has is their Serious Discusion (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=1038) forum.
