I agree. The problem is they won’t do it out of decency. There would have to be a serious round of banning, and that has not been forthcoming. This religious bigotry is tolerated here.

For many (all too many) discussion of their own religious beliefs by those "not of the fold" is considered bashing, out of place, and very nearly heresy ~ making it not fit reading matter for the faithful.

Frankly I reject that belief since it cannot be differentiated from institutionalized religious bigotry.

Moslems think it's OK to murder people who disagree with them over religion. They also believe it proper to silence them (short of murder).

Let's not get into adopting Moslem political and theological morality in this discussion of what it means to be super filthy rich running for President and belonging to a church that doesn't use the Nicene Creed.

That's the bottom line and contrary to Constitutional principles.

Disparaging comments re many faiths, many sects and branches of Christianity, have been made on forum but usually confined specifically to religion topics. The posters make their comments, then move on.

In this case, the anti-Mormon peanut gallery has been relentless. We know what the opinion of these dozen or so posters is, yet they repeat endlessly at great length.

I wouldn't propose a ban, but a LIMIT. And I do not see any limit being put on the spammers.

Now.... try saying something true about Fred Thompson that happens to be unflattering and doesn't fit his new "conservative" image... well, that would be another story.
