why do I keep seeing this to legitamate questions ?
when someone asks about spirit
this does not belong in R&S
when someone asks about tarot
this does not belong in R&S
someone just asked about fairies
this does not belong in R&S
who are you to say what peoples beliefs should involve
to some .... this is their religion or part of it
just because something is different to your own beliefs , it doesnt make it any less valid does it ?

I absolutely agree. I find it humorous when people say questions about spirit do not belong in R&S. Spirituality is that which involves being spiritual, or things on a spiritual level, which would include spirits. Tarot is a certain practice that is part of some religions...it's no different than praying. If prayer can exist here, why not tarot? And as for fairies, if someone has a religion that does believe in these beings, who are we to say that doesn't belong here because it is not what we think. It seems to me that a lot of people (mostly Christians, it seems) see this not as "Religion and Spirituality" but rather as "My Religion and My Views on Spirituality" and thus anything that doesn't fit their mold doesn't belong here. Blessings in the Light of Christ!

Pagans everywhere are rejoicing at this question. And to the guy who left the super long answer. You should know that at the time where most of the words about the "end of days" was written that it was written to scare people into converting from paganism into Christianity and if you want to talk about the true "end of days" it is prophesized by the Mayans to happen in 2012 but there will be no fire and brimstone oh no there will be a change of thinking and the way people live and what you are witnessing in 2007 is the true shift...a shift of no more oppression and the need to feel like we have to be what people want us to be...what you and many others do not realize is that if we stop telling people to be meek and humble in there actions and there feelings and stop telling them to take spiritual vows of poverty and it's okay to be sick, or poor because if you keep praying to Jesus you will go to heaven, so what I am not supposed to have a good life here on Earth, not saying we should be free to do wrong things no, no pagan or Wiccan or Atheist ever waged war for their causes, but there would not be so much pain and struggle, if you would let people be free to be the true "Godly" people that they already are. So if you want to take your spirituality pill with a cup of stiffness, then that is your business but please don't get mad at us for wanting to be free with our spirits and spirituality.
And now the peaceful pagan is back (sorry my spirit animal is the panther, and sometimes she grawls)
Blessed Be!

We don't have categories for seperate religions, nor should we, or people would just go off in thier little corners and be no closer to understanding or accepting each other than they were before coming here. I am for tolerance. One thing I don't think should be tolerated though, is outright attempts to censor another, regardless of what religion they subscribe to, or whether they call other wordly beings fairies or angels.... Mostly if I think someone is going to be like that, I just try to go around them, though....

There is nothing without the spirit, it belongs and will always remain. Tarot, fairies and the word religion could go and I wouldn't mind, I try my best to protest them in silence ;)

Completely agree all of those are fundamental to my experience of my spirituality, the Goddess I adore is the Queen of the Fairy.

Spirituality very much encompasses tarot, spirit, etc. I think those questions belong here just as much as any other. My suggestion would be that if a person does not believe in these things, or does not want to read about them - skip the question. I skip lots of questions that don't interest me.

Should "Evolution" and "Natural Selection" be discussed in the Religion and Spirituality Category

I am absolutely sure that there is power in the tarot, spiritualism, devil worship or whatever. I am sure because I have experienced it. I was involved in the occult for years so I know what I am talking about. I am even more sure that there is a god in heaven who sent his son for our salvation. He came into my life 22 years ago and set me free from the demons that governed me. Do you not know how earthbound these things are compared to a God whom even the highest heavens can't contain. Jesus said the roads to hell are many and wide and many will go down them. The bible also says that when they have to face him, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Sadly, that will be too late for so many. Which fairy, spirit or demon will save them then.

You are Right.
All of these things are O.K. to ask about in R&S section.
There are Three Realms:
Spiritual Realm
Mental Realm
Physical Realm
Religion and Spirituality covers all three Realms.
Ditto..............
