If you don't like it you can ignore it. There is not a forum rule against those posts. While i also don't favor those kind of posts, there is nothing i can do about it.

You are right.Trust ratings should not be based on religious,political or personal views and ideologies.They should solely be given for once assumed trust level. I think the said member should post his case in this section

Take a look at the Trust summary for the user BADecker:

User is a bigot who considers certain categories of his fellow-human beings to be inferior from birth; user overextends his religious beliefs -- which are derived from unsound reasoning and a willful intention to be hateful and evil -- to gleefully persecute and condemn others without just cause. Not only do I not trust him, in my opinion he is a danger to society and should be removed from it. User claims rocks are more valuable than gay people.

Before you reply, no, I am not his other account. I believe in LGBTQ rights and have been an advocate for them since the very beginning. However, I think it is an unjust abuse of the Trust System for someone to have a negative trust rating purely for their political/religious views.

Also, if you read the untrusted feedback, there are some people who left him positive feedback just because of the fact that he is Christian, which is also unacceptable. What can be done about this?
