My original comment was a joke. Even if it were taken literally, I don't think hubski is an echo chamber, but how long do you think it will take when religion is referred to as archaic dogma and good for nothing? And how is this thread supposed to be open to all forms of spirituality and searches for it when religion is walked all over like that?

Surely if hubski doesn't allow 'downvoting' then it should avoid being negative as well.

I never said that religion was "good for nothing". I have written extensively about its function. I never attack another person for their spirituality. I only ever express my own thoughts and feelings about spirituality and religion. If another person is offended by my own beliefs than I don't really care. I am always open to debate and discussion, and will defend my stance that most religious institutions are both "archaic" and "dogmatic". This should not be taboo to say. If you think it is wrong, I welcome you to thoughtfully challenge the statement.
