Categories provide a helpful way to group related posts together, and to quickly tell readers what a post is about. No it doesn’t, because it doesn’t have a sub category.
I went thru 100 pages trying to find my blog in Religion. The pages could be segmented by 10’s. An example would be 1-10, 11-20 etc.. That way we could go directly to the area or section of our blogs. The Blog could also be numbered for that category as well.Underhisreign

You are free to add additional categories and tags that are relevant to your posts. You can also create a hierarchical structure of parent Categories and “child” sub-categories. In addition you can replace the default category ‘Uncategorized” with a default Category of your own choice that it relevant to your blog.
Until there is a published post in each Category and/or sub-category you publish it will not be displayed in the Categories widget.
I have visited your blog and I could be wrong but these entries in the support documentation may be of help to you with your own blog Categories, Categories versus Tags , and Category management.
As far as locating other blogs goes we can use the global tab pages, Google search, WordPress.com search and other tools for locating similar sites as well.
Hope this helps.

I’d like to reorganize my categories, which are badly named.
Is there any way to make global category changes? Example: I’ve got posts carrying the categories “Afghanistan” or “Iraq War”. I’d like to roll them into a category just called “War’.

You can bulk add a category to several posts at once in Posts > All Posts: tick the posts, select Edit from the Bulk Actions pulldown, click Apply, tick category, click Update.
If it isn’t an already existing category, you must first go to Posts > Categories and create it.
In Posts > Categories you can also eliminate a category altogether. If you want to remove it from some posts only, it has to be done on a post-by-post basis. -
Thanks Panaghitisadam, The bulk add will be useful. How about this – can I remove a category from my list without removing the associated posts?

You’re welcome.
When you delete a category the relevant posts of course don’t disappear: if they were filed under that category only, they will automatically be re-assigned to the category you’ve set as your default post category in Settings>Writing.
