Why are there so many Religion & Beliefs topics on the Forums?

Hubpages has an international presence. Writers from all over the world contribute. In a world with almost 7 Billion people living in it I think it would be impossible for everyone one to believe in one religion!

In all honesty I suspect there are far more "gender relations" topics and forums than religus ones.

I believe there are a host of people in the world who thrive on arguing and debating. Religion lends itself to huge differences of opinion so that along with politics is grand fodder for "discussion.

A lot of people are uncertain about what they believe, so they like to battle each other to reassure themselves of their own (uncertain) beliefs...

People, have always Searched for, and are always, Searching for, The Truth.

Therefore, the present Search on Hubpages Forums, for, Truth ... is quite normal, especially when every Religion and Belief is "claiming" being, the only Truth ...

People... meaning, normal people ... you and me, thus, get confused, by these claims and counterclaims ...

Because, common folks do not have any benchmark, measure, or yardstick ... to judge the validity of these Claims and Counter claims by Religions, it's followers, and Believers ... all ... simultaneously claiming ... Following the only ... Truth. Thus, Religion and Belief, held, within any Faith, is held, as, the Truth ...

This leads to debates among Believing humans ... where one's word is pitted against the other's word ...

This debate, and at times, one killing the other ... is why so many Religion & Belief Topics appear ... on the world's Forums.

I pray, may the Seekers turn to the holy Koran.

Am clueless! However I wish I could find more Q&As on writing.

Everybody has an opinion and want their opinion heard.

Because we live in a fictitious world were ignorance is awarded which results in many people having irrational beliefs and like to express their ignorance through the sophisticated form of online forums! UNFORTUNATELY.

Religion and belief" will always be open to debate as no religious beliefs can be proven, hence the word "belief". We all have our own beliefs and I suppose this is probably an ideal place to voice them, should one wish to openly discuss them. Personally I keep my beliefs to myself, they are not open to debate!

It's kind of the origin of the Universe and how we came to be...only slightly important.

Religion and politics are two topics one should never talk about -- so everyone DOES talk about them because we can still do things we should not do....

People is really trying to get information out and it just so happen to be n the Religion & Believe area. hubpages.com/hub/godwhoattains.

This is a great place to post your opinion and also read many other opnions on the same subject.

I don't know. When I first joined hubpages, prior to signing up, I read a review about this website. There was a post script in the review that you'll find many 'religion and beliefs topics in the forum and question answer's section', I didn't pay much attention, but when I signed up, I notice myself.

These questions are over-whelming, they shouldn't be here in such a manner.

People need to believe in something. God, and religion, is one of the most comforting beliefs. While I personally am an atheist, I like to believe that I respect peoples beliefs.

However, you're right - far too many people try to enforce their thinking and religious affiliations on Hubpages. I just stay away from such discussions. Far too many people are blind believers who have a major disconnect with rational debate.

Also, let's not even say that most of the topics on the forums are debates. They are just spaces occupied by like-minded people patting each other on the back.

There is a very high percentage of religious fanaticism on the internet and these kinds of forums reflect this imbalance.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
