Welcome to the Grand Re-Opening!

Reverend Keith | February 6, 2009

PathsToKnowledge is back up as a home for discussion and socializing on matters of spirituality, religion, philosophy and science. We have moved all our original posts and discussions over from the old Drupal system to WordPress. I found with Drupal I was spending more time tweeking than posting. Catagories are still in disarray, so if you really need to find an old conversation quickly, use the search bar.

My philosophy for this revamped site is to connect it as much as possible to other social and Web 2.0 services. There’s no point in creating yet another social network. In that spirit, I’ve installed Disqus as the commenting system. You can still post comments without signing up for anything, but if you sign up with Disqus.com, you can track all your comments on the various blogs that use Disqus in a central location. Disqus will become, in effect, the “forum” of the website.

Meebo.com’s “rooms” are going to be used for the chat functionality. The button on the top menu works currently, and allows guests to login. We’ll have to build up some regular users and set some meeting times for chat to be worthwhile.

We’ll be adding more connections to Facebook, Twitter and similar social services in the next few days, so that PathsToKnowlege will become a social spirituality site that you can access in whatever way fits in with your particular style.

You can also, of course, sign up for an account right here on the website itself, the old-fashioned way. This will allow you to post articles on the main page, rather than simply contributing comments or creating new threads on the Disqus community page.

Yes, all the options are a bit more complex than the old way, but you’re smart people. You’ll figure it out. Have fun.

Attention, FTA and Eretz

lostone | November 11, 2007

If it would not be too much of an imposition, could you two direct your attention to the Insight board and post your ideas on the following subjects, which I found very impressive:

FTA – your discussion on why a finite creature, such as a human, cannot commit any sins that merit infinite punishment, and why all are likely to eventually be saved

Eretz – How you define sin to be acting in an unGodlike manner, which is why it hurts God, and therefore merits corrective action

I recall both of your arguments, but you both do it much better than I.

and I can access it.

Pahu is still playing over there, and OGM discovered him and is duly frying him once again.

I wonder if I am doing something wrong when I post. I had responded to several of Eretz posts and they are gone now. I know they were there for a second…. Are we just dealing with getting the bugs out? or is the cyber judge just not like my posts?
