it ain't "Science and Mathematics" (or "Education") that's for sure!

I guessed this may have been asked before, but it bears repeating. I spoke in jest - but I'm also 99% serious.

I agree that "theology" is better as a sub-category of "philosophy". but most religious people wouldn't know "theology" if it bit them in the you-know-where.

if anyone has a good reason for separating "religion/spirituality" from "mythology/folklore" - please state it.

Theology is a social science. It should be in the same category as Philosophy. I wish people who drank coco on a regular basis would run Yahoo.

Hmmm I think you could put Myth, Folklore, and Spirituality together along with Paganism, Buddhism, Shamanism, Taoism, Christianity, and all the rest, but Religion we ought to put under Salesmanship, right next to Scientology.

No. Look up the definition of both "religion" and "mythology" in a dictionary.

Do you know what a dictionary is? It's a book containing the definition of words.

You are correct. Religion is not Science, nor is it Math.
However, it is not a myth, either.

Since this is the first time i've seen the question, I'm going to agree. Nothing more than fairy tales and in my opinion should be a sub-category of mythology and foklore.

No, we need our own space. We already know that mythology is the foundation of religion. That's not what the dispute is in here. Get with it.

If it were a sub catergory why not just make it a whole other category like it already is??


That's stupid and a waste of too much reprogramming or whatever they do to design websites...

No, but I do think Naturalism should be added to R&S, so that some who post here will then be in the right category.

Yes, I agree. We should send a petition to yahoo
