It seems to me that the "Religion and Philosophy" forum is dominated by religious discussions but I think there would be support for a subforum that is less limited in scope. For example, I would love to see an "Ethics and Morality" subforum within "Religion and Philosophy". Religion is a great topic for discussion but there is so much more to philosophy.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

I'd suggest starting it as a thread within the Religion/Philosophy forum and if it branches out, you might be able to justify it as for a sub-forum of it's own. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice.
When I inquired how to propose an additional subforum I was give the following response.


"The usual way we add subforums is to see if there's enough traffic first. So, the best way to go about it would be to start a few threads in the existing forums, attract posters and then start a thread in About the Forum. If and when the Admin decides to put up a poll, he will probably include your proposal. Then, if it gets enough votes, it will be added."



I have just started a couple threads as you and the administrator suggest.
