   hi mr. umpire, could you please point me to a link or something   
   that lets me post via tor network as well? is it a paid service?   
   if its paid then nope. i am quite poor, have to pirate everything   
   in life.   
      
   i am also very curious about exploring the darknet, do you know   
   anything about it, like how to enter? it has something to do with   
   tor as well right? onions and tor.   
      
   on the topic of religious discussion, i would say.... hmm idk. i   
   guess it would depend on which direction you would like the   
   discourse to progress rather than how?   
      
   there is a porous barrier of philosophy separating science from   
   spirituality, which in turn i would regard as separate from   
   religion proper.
