why does yahoo answers,in their religion&spirituality section not have the diffrent religions listed?

I asked this same question about two days ago. Go to my profile (just click on my pic to the left here) to see those answers too. (It's the 1st one on "MY Questions") You have a good point; it was what I was thinking too. See who I chose for best answerer. Maybe you'll agree. :)

May I suggest going to a Christian forum then? Besides there is a gay and lesbian section here and it is still full of self-righteous haters. Having a special section just for Christians wouldn't change anything.

I too would like to see sections for different religions here...so i don't have to sift through all the bible bashers to get to the good stuff....Wicca!)o( Blessed be!

They can't. There is no way to make a heading for every religion in the world, and if they didn't they would be constantly bombarded by demands that various religions be included. Not to mention accusations of discrimination.
If you only want to talk to christians, go to a christian chat room or start a forum and only invite christians. If you are in charge, you can kick out anyone whose answers you don't like.

Life's tough all the way around.

If you don't like it, find somewhere else to Go.

You write up the list of the religions, they might consider it.

Try not to forget the demon worshipers. You know what they get like when they feel slighted, sulky, real sulky.

edit: I would like to Nominate "Martial Arts" as best answer,
anybody second the motion?

Personally, I enjoy reading the views of people of all belief and non-belief systems.

It would be boring. As talking and spouting about our religion with our like-minded ppl doesnt have any scope for learning.

just use the thumbs down like everyone else- its st. pattys day- get drunk and be happy- thats an order

exactly! im agnostic and i dont want to look at your conversation about bible!

People will still be nasty....regardless. People will hang out there to just piss people off.

More than likely because if they did they would be having problems of Christians or Jews or Muslims going to eachothers sections.

Have you thought about starting or joining a Christian-only Yahoo Group? If you start one, you can be the moderator and control the content.

The rest of us here would prefer that you not try to control the content of R&S.

Should they just put mainstream religions, or include a list of all religion?. Should Christians be lobbed under one title or should all the different types of Christians be listed? Would Satanism be listed as a religion? What religion would you classify spirituality?

So the answer would be not enough space.

I see that I'm not the only person who asked this question.

I agree with you, until I read this other question. See the note from the other post to your question who had a best answer. That person gave a positive reason to keep it as one board.

And explain to me how that would not be irresistible to trolls? You'd still complain.

In this diverse cultures we have to seek unity. When you start practicing tolerance, you will not be irritated this much. All religions invariably lead all to the Almighty God. It is just like Everest Top. There is no fixed route. People can climb it from any point in the circumference. The aim is to reach the top. That top point is God. The various starting points are various religions. Once you reach the top all differences will be nullified. nagarajan.

All religions state that all the "other" religions are going to hell. So that with everyone saying that all the other religions are wrong, what's the point? More people, if you look at the numbers, are saying that more people are going to hell than not. So why should yahoo take on the burden of such illogical thought!!!

i don't know. that's a good question. I was thinking about it to

that'd be one helluva long list

Come on here brothers and sisters in Christ; Didn't Jesus just about every were he went, didn't he run into scribs pharises and priest who were always questioning him and trying to trick him. did that stop him from teaching and telling the truth even though those religous people came against him.the truth will always stand and set you free and who ever is free is free indeed.Are you going to stand on what you believe in or not?

Its something good somewhat so that we can be more open to learn more about one another, especially of other's religion and even at times, asking provoking question to know one's true path is. You will find some being honest, some being crappy and some just hillarious.

There is a good mixture of everything in here except that you might get spams and nasty messages/emails from time to time.

I posted this question before and I did get mixed answers. But somehow, I guess its good that R&S is given a chance to prove itself as a community where everyone gets to share and answer one another in order to help ourselves to know more about 'truth'.

Of course, in the end, it is up to our own intelligence to decide what should be the 'best answer' for the question, for 'today'... as there will definitely be another similar question popping up now and then.

go to answers.com. this is a free country.... furthermore if they categorized every religion, it would take up a lot of space.

So right , this will corrupt your spirit, if you let it
they just didn't care, all they do is fight each other and nothing ever changes, except if you sift through all the filth to get to one good one you will be blessed
this is not a christian site and it is on the kindergarten level
