If that's the case I'd suggest that you inspect their credentials cuz I'm pretty sure they're bogus. I'll bet their receipts (for tax purposes) aren't worth the paper they're written on either.

Yes but, there are regulars at the Spirituality Forum who can be relied upon in a Pavlovian sense to regurgitate the JW/anti-JW and Christian/atheist themes which keep threads alive but add no new content to previous threads on the same topics. So the GF regulars would be foolish to try to emulate the SF regulars, for thread longevity, by this means.
How much "new content" can there possibly be?

Even new posters bring the 'same-old' discussions back to the table.

One either believes or not, it's fairly black or white, and no one is likely to change anyone's mind any time soon.

Soon? It'll never change. "God" it's already been many millenia, with the "odd" convert but is it really worth the effort and deaths?

The forum interface could do with a revamp. Although Russ & Co. may prefer users to be playing chess rather than using forums too much, and the servers could (dunno) be put under more strain by an improved interface. Youtube embedding, or at least clickable web links would be nice.
