ahayes, I moderate both on and off the Religion Forum - and I post by both handles, RM and AM. This is not a Religion Forum thread and the RF guidelines do not apply here.

orionblamblam, if you want to discuss other issues relating to the incident, start a new thread.

Sometimes the things worth discussing are integral to the thread itself as much as the news article.

But, oh well. In the future, I'll avoid threads with "(prayer request)" in them as threads being inappropriate for actual debate. But the next question is... if I post a new thread with, say, "(science request)" in the topic, can we call down the wrath of the moderators on those who sully it with discussion or religion? Hmmmmm....

You are a bit behind the times here. Look over the thread. Probably 90% has nothing to do with prayer.
