I thought Religion was in General which is basically Chat.

Moving Passion threads to the Religion forum is not my preference, but it's a whole lot better than moving the directly into "Chat".

If I had my personal preference, they'd stay in a "News" related section as long as they were posted as a sourced article. But, I realize that my preferences are not the preferences of all, and some don't like the huge frequency of Passion postings.

I just want it to be easy to find "Passion" threads without having to wade into "chat". The search works OK, but many of these threads don't have "Passion" in the title.

The problem is not the threads; it's the software. We should be able to choose which areas show up in Latest Posts. I would like to have religion added. Then I wouldn't care if it was in General. The same is true with prayer threads. It would be nice to have them all in one place but you could choose to have them show up in Latest Posts.

Passion threads really don't belong in News.

If everyone wouldn't object to anything being put in chat, there would be good stuff in chat.

There is nothing inherently insulting for news to be seperated between "political hard news" in News, and soft news like The Passion, or Caption threads, or Vanities, in Chat. As long as Chat is treated like a ghetto, it will remain one.
