This site is supposed to be about ANSWERS, not opinions. Religion is based solely on opinion, no answers or facts. So was it a mistake for Y!A to include an R & S section, since there can be no definitive answers when it comes to Religion and Spirituality?

Spirituality is ones personal belief in God or a power greater than themselves. The key point being that it is internal and personal not external.

Religion on the other hand is man made, period. It is essentially a business enterprise, with many becoming VERY large and VERY profitable. Religious institutions should be treated as business and taxed as such. Even the Religion and Spirituality section in Yahoo Answers should be divided into two separate categories as they are drastically different.

I often see people in other sections saying they tend to stay away from the Religion and Spirituality section because it’s just way too intense for them. They often say it is the worst section to visit. In one answer I read just now, the answerer described it as a “ferocious environment”.

Do you think this is true?

Personally I find this section hilarious, it doesn’t annoy me one bit.
