Category talk:Spirituality & Fandom

From Fanlore

I think the name of this category should include the word "Religion" as well. I don't like religions & mythology lore being called "spirituality"; it seems like a way to dodge the concept of religion as more than an individual practice. I'm also not sure if soulmates/soulbonding as fic tropes belong here.

Possibly this could be "Religions and Spirituality in Fandom?" (And remove the soulmate stuff, because despite the word "soul," they don't seem any more connected to spirituality than hanahaki disease.)--Elf (talk) 17:00, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

maybe change name of category?
