Mayka, If the forum only allowed topics related to zen, it would become full of dogs and shit. Zen is involved in everything, so we can roam to many realms. Don't worry, if it strays too far away, we have two moderators to pull it back. Anthony

And that has made from this forum a nice one to participate on. However, it has been noticeable to me that the forum is getting less zen and more chatting and religious, politics themes. That is gaining strenght and overtaking all the essence and energy of just rare zen postings. And this is kind of sad. Discussions of all kinds plus chatting are ok but if those discussions away of zen wave overtake the forum, then what is left for the practicioners to share or even to participate on it as the posting gets swallow by all the rest non zen posting?. There are religious boards for every religion, why not to become a member there and do the posting over there?. Just a thought. Mayka
