    I don't where to place this question, so I thought I'd try here. It's just that I noticed there was no forum to discuss Judaism under the Religion & Spirituality section. How come? Will there ever be one?

    I am not sure if anyone has ever asked for one... I presume it would have to go through the new forum request process like any other forum request, and if it had enough support it might be created... or something like that.

    Is it something you want to see created or are you asking from a theoretical perspective?

    I'm probably asking from a theoretical perspective. I just happened to see all the other religions are represented and thought it could be nice with one about Judaism too as I know very little about the religion and the culture ;)

    No hassle on my behalf though :)

    All other religions are represented? LOL :p

    A Judaism forum was mooted and rejected before due to lack of support.

    See request thread here.

    Thank you! That's good to know.

    I don't mean all religions, but quite a few large ones :p

    I'm sure if there were a group of Jewish posters on boards that were interested in participating in and up-keeping the forum it would be a good idea. But in the absence of that like the linked thread exemplifies, it would just be a magnet for antisemitism.

    Noticed it a long, long time ago - but that's essentially why. The only Jewish posters I have personally ever seen on the site are not in most cases legitimate users but usually the ones that sign up just to post Israeli propaganda from youtube and defend Israeli politics. Which is not always wrong in and of itself but back on this point: I've never seen any of them wish to actually discuss Judaism.
