90% of relligion threads are either about metaphysics or arguing which relligion is true. Those topics do not belong on /his/ for in the first case they are not humanities and in the second they have no substance and can be classified as shitposts
>>16886950Most of the threads on /his/ right now belong on /x/, just as most of the threads on /tv/ belong on /pol/ and most of the threads on /sp/ belong on /bant/
Correct. Unless you are adhere to methodological agnosticism, you should not post on this board.
>>16887003and most of the threads on /biz/ belong on /crypto/
>>16886950>Gayreeco-Rawmen civilization is a farceYes /his should only focus on science and neopagan history because snowniggers aren't religious, it's not in their dna to believe in superstitious fundamentalist orientalist stories.Kek
>>16887033It's not that /his/ shouldn't have threads about religion, it's that those threads should be about religious HISTORY and not religious mythology - which is what the majority boil down to. Discussing the supernatural aspects of those stories is great but doesn't belong on this specific board.
>>16887046too bad the bible is 100% historical.it's more historical than most modern "history" in fact.
>>16887051The Bible isn't any more historical than the Vedas.
>>16886950Philosophy (which includes metaphysics and religion) is part of the humanities dumbass. /x/ is for paranormal incidents (i.e. ghosts, cryptids, spirits, aliens and the like). /x/ having religion and philosophy is the aberration.
>>16887063it's significantly more historical but the Vedas are also more historical than you think
>>16887070Religious history =/= religious mythology. One is historical and the other is innately supernatural. That's not even being a fedora tipper, that's just common sense.
>>16887075>That's not even being a fedora tipper, that's just common sense.
>>16887077Discussing heaven, hell, angels, demons et cetera is NOT /his/ unless you discuss them in historicaly-humane context such as "use of byblical characters in medieval iconography"
>>16887075This board is about the humanities in general. READ THE PIN POST.>>27939
>>16887084Theads like /his/16883774 ,/his/16885329,/his/16886924 or /his/16886936 classify as neither of the things mentioned in the pinned comment. It's a discussion by a metaphysical things that cannot be touched or experienced. It's not even about philosophy or applying philosophy in real life. It's just about things that indiscutable.
>>16887102Metaphysics IS a branch of philosophy. And Philosophy IS part of the humanities. So I don't get your argument.
>>16887107Then perhaps I named it wrong as metaphysics. It's the things that belong to sacrum or out-of-human-reach domain and discussing them is pointless. Threads like "proof of god's existence" certainly doesn't qualify as HUMANities
>>16887077May Zeus help you.
