I think that in this enitire forum, religion and all forms of it sould be banished as a topic of conversation. That includes polls, disscussions, opinions, and beliefs. EVERY thread involving religion in any way has been argued upon, and in time, locked, as we recently saw in the website Landon provided. Talking about beliefs also angers many, pulls the forum apart, and makes many choose sides, etc. I think that if us members as a whole could cooperate, it would make this forum a better place, and many less would be offened.
I greatly appeciate your cooperation if you choose to accept and abide by it. If you agree, please state so on this topic
With the permission of Zynx and SMD, we could possibly make this a side branch of TSE

I agree with this statement strongly, and this thread is now officially stickied.

Can you post in these forums? There's no reply icon thing so I did the quote thing. Tell me if I did something wrong and yes, I agree

I agree, any thread dealing with religion should be immediately erased. We had one that didn't work out, so why should we have multiple new ones?

Religion is always a shaky topic. Like they say, you should never talk about religion and politics. I agree and say that religion should be banned unless it is a very important thread.

I agree.. We should just keep our opinions on religion to ourselves.

Yes...I know I have been the one who has started it in the past, but it just doesn't work on forums. In regards to the last one, I did not call christions brainwashed, I specifically called EBOLA brainwashed.

With the permission of Zynx and SMD, we could possibly make this a side branch of TSE By all means go ahead with it. I beleive that people would have realized that religon topics had the most flames and other stuff to stop with it but I guess not. I'm glad everybody will listen to this topic and stop with the religon chats. Thank you Tim for making this topic. Thank you Crono, FinalBoss, OldschoolRPG, Dragoon Tony, and Knight_of_Lodis for locking those threads.

Then it is settled, any further talk about another persons religion or believes shall be delt with.

Amen! That will reduce about 30% of the flaming!

This is the best idea I have heard on this forum in a long time.

I see your point Tim. Sounds like a good idea to me. My last topic was about defending videogames. Now that I have looked at it (didn't know it was locked) some of you went a little far. But anyway you are right that many people have their own opinions and they shouldn't critisize others because of their beliefs.

I think another type of thread that we can do without is all these "Who's your Favorite Poster/Board Member", "Funniest Member", "Most Retarded Member", etc. threads. Maybe I'm off base here, but all they turn into are either popularity contests that take up space on our board or giant flame wars about who's the stupidest member or dumbest newbie,etc. We've had so many in the past, I don't like seeing those threads pop up again. I think someone created a "Ghettoest Member" thread or something like that. Ghettoest Member?? Really, how moronic can a topic get...
