“While I recognize that you might not like the way the RM has allowed the converstation in the kitchen to evolve, you are still a guest as am I, and the RM is still in charge.”
Until Jim Robinson decides to kick me out of here after 10+ years, I'll continue to voice my opinion about when I see things that are wrong.
“It is my opinion that referring to the conversations that take place in the kitchen as ‘the sewer,’ you are being offensive to both your host and your RM.”
The rules of the “Open [Sewer]” threads are basically, no personal attack, no profanity, no “potty” language and “no thin skin.”
In calling these threads sewers, I'm not attacking any person. I'm not using profanity. I'm not using crass “potty” language. Anyone who takes offense to my characterizations, however, IS showing a thin skin, and I guess, if the rules were enforced fairly, would have to go.
Certainly, my criticisms of the “Open [Sewer]” thread policies are more polite, more decorous, less mocking, less ridiculing, less demeaning than MANY of the posts of non-Catholics and non-LDS against things held HOLY AND SACRED by Catholics or LDS.
Are you suggesting that criticism of Religion Moderator policies is WORSE than trashing other people's sacred things?
“...your hypocrisy.”
Sounds like a personal attack to me.

BTW, I am not the one complaining. I happen to like the Religion forum, and I think it is being very fairly moderated. I am often on the Mormon threads and in my opinion many mormons will accuse others of hatred, bigotry and vileness just because they don't like the ideas expressed by the opposite side.
I certainly hope the Catholics are not as oversensitive as to view anothers opinion as hatred. I wouldn't know, as I am never on Catholic threads.
