Religion causes many of the problems with politics & society
Religion is extremely relevant to this section
I would generally agree with these statements however I wouldn't cast it as an absolute. I would rather look at it on a scale. Some religious topics do not belong in this section IMO. for example your thread that you PM'd me about was not about political implications it was an opinion poll for what is the best religion. I did not see a lot of value in the thread being in this board, my options are delete, lock or move it. I chose the one that didn't censor the topic, feel free to continue to discuss it!
That's not how it works dude, I don't get to create boards, I work within the system provided. If either of us don't like it we can complain, deal with it or leave.
It appears that way because it is and the arbitrary decision is left to me. Again not all religious topics belong in this section IMO. I don't look at this subject in terms of absolutes. The rules are subjective I did not receive instructions on what and how to specifically mod the section. I apply the rules the best I can based on my interpretation of the rules. If you believe I am not interpreting the correctly after we talk about it feel free to take it to meta!
It is funny you say half the religious topics have been moved to OT. In reality I have moved dozens of threads in the last couple of weeks and I believe 1 of them was a religion opinion poll. In fairness it may have been a couple of religious threads moved but they were shit topics I probably should have shit canned instead of moving but meh, point being it isn't anywhere near half.
It is also worth noting that as I mentioned I feel I have been extra lenient on the religious subjects. I won't be moving every thread on this subject to OT it does as mentioned have a lot of society and political implications, but I also don't think I will leave all them anymore and will be making decisions on what to leave and what to move.
Thanks for the PM since I have responded here I won't bother with a reply.
