Huh?
I’m not making anything “personal”, but I am honestly trying to discuss an issue. If you read both of our back and forth, I think you’ll more readily see that the person I was trying to have a discussion with was throwing out “personal” barbs, but I continued to try to keep it on topic.
But then maybe the person I was trying to have a discussion with is also you, the Religion Moderator???? I don’t know, but if you take the time to read all of my last post, you can see that this discussion is done and I tried to leave in peace.
The guidelines for the Religion Forum are different because the subject matter is particularly sensitive and therefore, inflammatory.
The main guideline here is to stay away from ad hominems which I word as "discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal."
The most common forms of "making it personal" involve attributing motives or reading the mind of another Freeper, personally. So when I see a remark of that type, I intervene on thread to avoid problems.
