The pornography, sex talk in backchat and general lack of morals is hard for some people to stomach.

I beg to differ; on issues of religion and spirituality there is a lot to discuss and debate. I believe, however, that for many who are "religious and spiritual," the issues to be discussed are too uncomfortable for them to deal with. Let's use the recently publicised (and authenticated) Gospel of Judas or the Codex Vaticanus, the oldest version of the Gospels, which has just been made accessible online; here are at least two profound topics that will raise certain questions and answers that may force people to, at the very least, review beliefs and tenets they thought had long since been settled. These are beliefs and tenets that form part of a comfort zone many have built up around them and, perhaps subconsciously, believe all is lost without that zone, so they simply rather not know or deal with them.

I have to agree, it's one of the reasons I (once again) kinda slacked off of this site and went across to others where more mature issues are discussed and more frequently at that.

Sad to admit though; I always find Caribbean people to be deeper and more intellectually profound once they get into a subject.

No. You can rarely discuss anything serious on IMIX. I see people making fun about deaths, child molestation, incest, etc. I would never bring up anything serious on this site.

As for your other point, people are not really interested in having religious discussions. They are primarily interested in attacking other people's beliefs. Even the examples that you mention demonstrate this.

I did not say that you attacked someone's belief. Your response is another reason why no one can debate on IMIX. Do show me where I said that you attacked someone's belief.

I will quote what I wrote:

"They" not "you".

And the examples of two things that you want to discuss speak for themselves.

So why can't we start a revolution... 2009 is about change and this room was created becasue there was once a long thread about religion, and spirituality. We had a real nice thread(s) and from those threads I was able to tap in and open up new understandings. I was hoping we could have kept that flow because you never know the next person you might be helping.
