@'Amir Alzzalam & @Alif Balaam Yashin - would be very interesting to get your opinions on this. :)

Not sure if we have a pagan-folk music thread somewhere, but just wanted to post this while it's still on YouTube - previous version I liked disappeared! The imitable Einar Sellvik accompanied by the outstanding Eivor - and the Danish National Orchestra - performing what I believe is a...

I was thinking that if I could speak to myself in the past, I would definitely remind myself that everything will always be alright in the end and not to stress too much about anything. I used to be pretty chill, but I got quite stressed at the responsibility of raising a family, especially over...

I have to admit, I tend to take these reports with a pinch of salt, but I thought the story may or may not be of interest to at least some Christians, so here goes: https://phys.org/news/2024-11-jesus-miraculous-fish-explanation.html tl:dr - The study claims Jesus was preaching at the same...

Apologies for anyone who got a message saying their posts had been removed from the suicide research thread - I had only intended that message for one particularly insensitive member whose messages I sought to remove, but I also had to remove some replies quoting them and forgot they would also...

Does anyone have any recommended resources on how to meditate for beginners? Meaning, I can search for online guides and videos myself - but I would like to know if anyone here meditates and if so if they have any resources they've used that they would recommend?

Just to let everyone know that I've just activated a couple of the default reactions that come with the forum software - we now have wow, sad, and angry reactions. :) Not a big change, but I did notice their absence and seemed harmless enough. No plans to activate the dislike button, though. :)

I just thought I'd ask - the Garden of Eden section of Genesis is commonly discussed among Christians/non-Christians, but I would be curious to know any Jewish perspectives on this - especially about the Tree of Life and the serpent. From past experience, I expect there are a fair number of...

Just wondered if anyone here listens to audiobooks? I'm especially curious to know if American listeners prefer to hear a narrator with a US accent rather than say a British one?

Okay, finally watched this film. Though I've enjoyed some of Queen's singles I wouldn't really describe myself as a fan and didn't really know anything about the band's history. The film started slow and felt a bit flat, but it slowly but surely built up momentum so that by the end of the film...

Thought I'd start a thread about comedy on YouTube - just watched this guy and thought he was quite brilliant. :)

When I original set up this community, I included a politics board because I hoped to invite considered and civilized discussion about wider politics issues, which often and inevitably have a religious aspect to them. I don't know if I ever succeeded in that aim in my original term here. It's...

I only came across this very recently - I find it an amazing instrument, played in an amazing way, with an amazing sound. :) Healing Frequency | 1 hour handpan meditation https://www.youtube.com/@MalteMarten

I recently enjoyed watching this short video, about a Buddhist parable on how to deal with anger at other people:

I just wanted to say a big thank you to @RJM for doing his utmost best to keep Interfaith running these past few years. I know it hasn't been easy for him, and I know even the best can struggle at any time running an active forum in general, let alone one based around such profound and often...

Just to apologise for the down time. We were originally hosted with Westhost, but over the last couple of weeks not only did they lose a full week's worth of posts, they also tried to migrate all of their clients to another hosting service and it went completely fubar, leaving all of their...

As you've probably noticed, since moving the forums to the new server, there have been a few errors on the board - for example, avatars no longer showing up. However, this weekend I plan to do a full upgrade of the forum software from vbulletin 3 to xenforo. Things might seem a little...

Terribly sorry about this, but I've just moved the site to a different server, but it's broken the site avatars. Turns out the server software we were running before was very out of date. That on top of the fact that the forum software hasn't seen a proper update for a few years means that...

Something I've always been curious about, since it was mentioned a very long time ago on these boards, is the voting system used for electing representatives of the Baha'i faith. It would certainly be interesting to know more about it - please do feel free to post any relevant links, and once...

Interesting reading recently about the atheist convention (yes, truly) called The Amazing Meeting. iO9 covers some of it here: The Great Geek Sexism Debate Apparently, Dawkins seems to think women who make any claim about sexual harrassment, without suffering genital mutilation or torture, are...
