The mods will move a thread from Culture before it has a chance to develop? What's this rule that you must make a statement or ask a question when posting something? I'd be disappointed to see threads moved to Spirituality since I find that forum tiring as hell.
It was moved back, no?
I think the original decision was a kneejerk reaction to one alert, common sense prevailed it seems.

I would like to see more posts develop without immediate judgment, we shall see. I was about to post my thoughts on it (and how I found the Tao and what I think of it's usefulness nowadays) and kept reading.....then, poof, lost the motivation.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundYes, agreed, and an openness would be a good (mature) way to start. 🙂
To be honest, i just wanted to post the poem, because i liked it. I wanted others to read it, and considering the forum was/is empty, it would maybe encourage others to post stuff they enjoy. There seems to be a stutter at the first hurdle here, as people are not sure what culture should mean.
Have you seen this website?
