This forum is so full of people, please don't all spam topics at once, I have to bump every 5 minutes just to stay in the first page, hehehe!
Here is a dilemma, addressed towards the staff that runs this site:
Mainstream, non-theistic practices more or less dictate that you create your own reality. Which means that you created the reality that runs this site. One would assume that you'd wish to create a reality where you would successfully openly discuss matters of spirituality and theisms with many, and yet there aren't, which leaves me to assume that this is the reality you indeed created... but why would you want to lord over an empty forum? I am curious too see how you will talk yourselves out of this paradox. I hope I didn't offend someone, Balkan sense of humour can be... "harsh" sometimes. Though I am not sure where I got this idea from, maybe your own spirit guides gave a whack on the head with a styrofoam hammer so I'd straighten you out...

Hi Bigbadbeef,
Is this mean't to be a spiritual question?
Not sure what you mean by your comments. The forum is here for people to use, or not it is their choice. But there is activity daily. Is there a point to your comment. I have an idea. Instead of being sarcastic, why not WRITE A POST yourself, instead of criticizing. To be part of a group, you do have to participate, and I haven't seen you doing much of that.

The forum is not run by admins, everything depends on the input of members like yourself, you can make it heaven or hell, what you see is only a projection of your own thoughts. If you want to see informative posts, try making one yourself, instead always looking to others to do the work for you.

You misunderstand, my intention was to present a paradox, one you could possibly address. I am not judging, merely proposing the above mentioned dilemma to be discussed. The forum is not run by admins, everything depends on the input of members like yourself, you can make it heaven or hell, what you see is only a projection of your own thoughts. If you want to see informative posts, try making one yourself, instead always looking to others to do the work for you. Yes, but if spiritualists believe they create their own reality, which means that a less active forum is exactly what they wanted... so how would you answer that... or have I misjudged you?

BBB is indeed a creation of us and in that we have naught but ourselves to blame. But it doesn't always have to be that way forever. In that the stasis in an illusion. That is why the doors are open, the light still shines; food is placed on the table. The banquet is not for waste but we are not capable of knowing who will show up or when. It is not a matter of if but of when.
That is the problem with the wonderful world of spirituality. It is remarkably free of anybodies ego. Least of all the ego of the participants who work so hard to make it all happen. The reason being an advanced teaching I will not give out for now but I can only observe: some of us do our penance for things we don't even remember even as our vindication will come far removed from what we can can see now.
That is why we are so patient ...

Yes there is me... but where's the gang at? And even that question is not important.
What is important is that if you desire more to visit the forums, why haven't they come? After all, if you create your own reality, why do you not create some more members on this forum?
Now, let me emphasize here, I am not challenging your beliefs, neither am I making a complaint here, the issue is not the lack of visitation, the issue is the aforementioned paradox:
As the staff of this forum you naturally want more visitation to this forum, but more people don't come, if you create your own reality, then why don't they come?
This is the paradox I wanted you to comment on!
