I think it is clear people care a lot about this forum - anything well cared for has strong emotions attached.
With the chaos and confusion can come new growth... or it can be shut down.

What if we had a password protected area? For example, ppl click on the "Spirituality" forum and instead of just all sorts of posts, there are other choices like the various religions listed (or "Other", "nondenominational", "general") and each person then signs up for the one or two most prevalent to them, obtains the password for that room and gets to post there?

I feel it is unwise to debate, so please let us simply poll our thoughts at this time =) I don't even really know such a set up is possible - but if we never think about it, it never will be a poss.
sincerely, kiya
