These guidelines are super easy to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-f2e1afcfdb6926c0356c4424ce523760\">This is a safe place for members to explore spirituality\u2026 personal attacks, threats, or bullying are never allowed on DigitalSoulSpace.org. Please don\u2019t put the administrators in the position of having to talk to you about your post or digital content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e2176749d2a244893902801941d72bed\"><strong><em>Due to the sometimes sensitive nature of this site, sharing posts and or content from Digital Soulspace, without the expressed permission of system administrators and content creators, is strictly prohibited.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-70315256638d32e06a259a294428cf38\">Free speech is part of what makes this country so amazing, but you can\u2019t post anything considered illegal in the United States, or the country in which you are physically located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-fc57fd42d4688fbe9ae8e5bca1535ee5\">Posting <strong><em>factually inaccurate information, which could be harmful to one\u2019s mental, physical or emotional health is not allowed<\/em><\/strong>. &nbsp;The administrators of this site believe <strong><em>spirituality should enhance one\u2019s life and awareness, and not replace professional medical advice<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;<strong>and or treatment.<\/strong><\/em> The more you know about science, the more you realize the <em>Universe&nbsp;<\/em>is <em>truly<\/em> magical, aware, and filled with endless mystery. For an example of how this kind of awareness works, read <em>\u201cReason For Hope\u201d<\/em>, by Jane Goodall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-604285030d2adc380eeda408354f6b24\">We don\u2019t expect spiritual people to agree about everything, however <em><strong>political posts &nbsp;\/ &nbsp;discussions are permitted in private groups only, and not on the main social feed.<\/strong><\/em> Since these posts can be extremely divisive for those that don\u2019t share the same belief, we\u2019d appreciate if you keep them within a private group. For example, if you\u2019re trying to elect a fire breathing dragon into office, that\u2019s totally fine if you post it within a private group that focuses on fire breathing dragon politics. Some spiritual modalities lend themselves more to activism, and some are more passive\u2026 let\u2019s just agree to respect and honor one another on the main feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3b9705789705d0819e3fa5d9dcbf837f\">Advocating a spiritual position in a way that undermines other beliefs or modalities, is not permitted. We have to be respectful of the vast spectrum of beliefs available to members, some of which may seem bat shit crazy to one person, however extremely important to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-d8c0f570888a4272058a2b8ed3ccf3c7\">Posting of disturbing content (images, videos, documents, etc.), however important to a valid social cause, is not permitted. This especially includes photos of animal cruelty\u2026 however much you think you\u2019re helping a cause, you may be seriously damaging another person with such content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-f6d8f34c408cbbd242ca7300d587c51d\">Posting of offensive sexually explicit material and or pornography is not permitted. If you need clarification of this\u2026 renaissance paintings, artistic depictions of the divine feminine \/ goddess, are not considered pornography or offensive. Use good judgement and a little bit of common sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-84ef4983efceb1caec9f829f63592c5d\">Self promotion is permitted, as such that you\u2019re not spamming the main social feed. <strong>The cycle of energy must be balanced<\/strong>, so if it becomes apparent that you\u2019re using the site strictly to advertise and you\u2019re not contributing in some way (actively posting, engaging others, etc.), you will be asked to obtain a &#8220;<em>Marketplace<\/em>&#8221; space in exchange for a qualifying donation (see donation options <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalsoulspace.org\/collections\/1356441?utm_source=manual\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>).
