Ok...The Perennial Philosophy Forum itself was a bust...too confining for its intended purpose I think. I am leaving it in place as a sub-forum inasmuch as recurrent themes is still a vital topic category. What I was originally shooting for was a kind of "lobby area" forum that might allow for all kinds of general metaphysical & philosophical topics not necessarily linked to any established schools of thought...or perhaps just non-mainstream enough to have become more broadly recognized yet.
As I study over the forums I realize we have a lot of very well developed specialty categories but not a lot of "general interest" categories so that newcomers are often left to feel like they have nowhere to post if they just want to talk about things that don't fit any well established grooves...even just personal experiences that may seem to defy description etc...
So we'll try it this way for awhile and see if this helps...no posts were lost but a few may be in different places. If you can't find your topic just let me know. Everything that was in the PP forum is still there in the MM forum somewhere.
