"Debate and general discussion of the supernatural, religion, and the life after."

Are you for or against?

[P.S. I don't really want to replace it or change it; there is just the potential for an interesting discussion of this, that's all]

And just how do you think that would change the nature of the debate?

Then the discussion wouldn't be about spirituality.

My point exactly.

Obviously, "supernatural, religion, and the life after" encapsulates much narrower parameters.

You'll need a new forum.

On the contrary. The discussion of the supernatural, religion and the afterlife encapsulates the broadest range of topics relative to spiritual experience.

What you're suggesting is trimming the discussion by eliminating areas of debate you're ill equipped to engage in, thereby narrowing the parameters of discourse.

No, it is clearly a restricted selection of aspects of what "spirituality" pertains to and encompasses.

My suggested tagline broadens the parameters. My suggestion includes "religion", ""the supernatural" and "the life after" and then invites and embraces much more in addition. Broader not narrower. Nothing is eliminated.

You have completely misunderstood the exchange about the words "material things" between me and divegeester.

But you just said above that it was your "point exactly" when I said the discussion wouldn't be about spirituality in reply to your statement that with a new tag line the discussion would be "of tangible or physical things without a metaphysical angle or context".

How are the parameters broadened when you want to eliminate discussion about spirituality?

Just start a new forum and castigate anyone for making references to the spiritual.
