New place for Serious Discussions

Thanks for the change, Mac.
One question:
Why is the "Religion and Philosophy" forum under the "General discussion" heading in the "Europe" section rather than the "General Discussion" in the "Member Lounge?" It seems like it is hidden. Are only europeans allowed to discuss religion and philosophy?

The Europe Forum is not only for European (not more than the Japan Forum is for Japanese people).

inappropriate....but to be tucked away under Eupedia comes very close to being insulting. (Not that I've ever noticed any Europeans who would give such a thing a second thought).

Hi Mike,

Why do you write such words?
I stayed 1ﾂｽ year near New York 1966/1967, most Americans seemed to like this European and some of them were proud to tell me that their forefathers came from Holland.

Your words about being almost insulted by being put together with us the Europeans, is not " comme il faut".

I don't think Mike is saying he's insulted by being associated with Europeans, simply the fact that he is American and wanted to participate in Serious Discussions section, it seems puzzling to have it under Europe section when Americans are just as likely to use it.

Anyway it has been moved now.

I was also puzzled about why Religion and Philosophy remains under the Europe section, though!
