    It makes R&S come up as the first suggestion so they don't have to hunt for it.

    R&S usually has the most active users so the question is most likely to get answered if it's on this forum.

    Because as you can see by the majority of the questions here; 90% don't have a clue what the word spirituality really means.

    the word spiritually is a tag that puts r & s at the top of the suggested category list. that way, they don't have to take the extra ten or so seconds to manually find it.

    To save time categorizing the question.

    More specifically, they want either a) more eyes on their question so they post in a busy section like this, or b) wish to get the input of people they know frequent this section.

    It gives them an excuse to be here. It is a little like, Once upon a time, in a fairy story.

    As an excuse for inappropriately posting such questions on this forum.

    Because they're imbeciles and they believe (falsely) that doing so renders their "questions" less of a chat violation.

    It may have something to do with their level of intelligence.
