I'd like to see a New Age forum. I am considering and trying to implement some New Age practices into my beliefs.

I`d second that.

I seem to be surrounded by this new religious trend among young people and haven`t the slightest clue about it.

Blessed Love Idren and Sistren in the name of the Most Ivine Lord JAH RasTafari!!!

Eventhough I am a Rastaman I would not recommend a new forum for the Movement right now. Rastafarians, because of our individualized beliefs tend to disagree on many things, such as race. It would not be good to bring such discontent to this forum.

I would certainly welcome a forum but if I am the only Rastaman I don't see the need yet. However, it may work it just depends if they are any "Knowledge"s on the forum.

I would have thought that an ordered forum with rules and regulations would be against the basic principles of Discordianism, but i'm no expert:D!

i'm not sure how many Quakers we have on the boards, but a Quakerism section under Christianity might be cool.

another forum i go to dealt with this issue by waiting until there was interest from a member(s) of the not-yet-included group. that way there could be discussion with people who practiced said religion, not just "outside commentary" or some such.

Some other religions/belief systems (with links to information on them):

Transhumanism: www.transhumanism.org
Utilitarianism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilitarianism
Discordianism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism
Invisible Pink Unicorn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_pink_unicorn
Otherkin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otherkin
Starseeds: http://www.paoweb.com/starwhat.htm
Rainbow Family of Living Light: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_family

Some people would call a bit "crazy", but probably no crazier than other more socially-acceptable mainstream religions :)

peeb!
http://www.otherkin.net is the semi-'official' Otherkin site, but it seems to be down currently. There's a handful of Otherkin forums as well, as well as an otherkin.org (which appears to be focused more on the vampires), various dragon-kin sites (draconic.com, for example), and probably an endless supply of animal-kin sites. The humanoid 'kin don't seem to be as numerous, or just haven't gotten around to making their own sites yet (although I did find an angel-kin forum a while back, but it's mostly inactive).

Yes, transhumanism kind of interests me :) My first reaction is to dismiss it as "what a lot of superstitious nonsense!"

But, where it intrigues with the beautiful philosophy of transhumanism, it intrigues me...not the spirit-vampires, or mythic languages or anything...but the one, transcendant thought of "I do not have to be a human. I can be more than that." What a powerful idea.

But then with therianthropes the questions leads to, "By philosophically becoming no longer human, are you progressing into a more sublime, divine state or regressing into a more base, animal state?" Not to insult anyone who worships the nobility of the wild beast...but I think we can all agree that spiritual conversation is a lot more engaging as us big-brained humans that it would be as a pack of wolves :p

Dinogrrl, are you an otherkin? Pardon me if I'm rude, just wondering :)
