Then there's a lot of bashing that's being swept under the rug.

ksen is right. Illbay trashes Catholics (and earlier this week Southern Baptists and Assembly of God - my denomination). restornu bashes Jews.

At the risk of your ire, I'd have to ask why that's allowed but drstevej is expressly forbidden to discuss Mormonism.

I'm pinging others that have specific examples of their posts being pulled when challenging Mormons.

Look, if you see someone going over the line, use the abuse button. If the moderators agree, the posts will normally be removed. However, in many cases, especially on this forum, the abuse is going both ways. It's tough for a moderator to take any action at all when there are NO clean hands. Many times we will simply post a knock it off warning to all involved or sometimes we delete the entire thread. I'm often tempted to just delete the entire Religion forum. If the particpants here cannot learn to be civil to each other, then why bother. It ain't worth the grief.

And then, there are the abuse button abusers.... sheesh, this stuff can drive a person nuts.

Saying that "Southern Baptists and Assembly of God members whom I have known tend to be rather shallow" is hardly bashing of religion.

"Bashing of religion" would be to "prove" that your faith is "evil" using wads of anti-whatever garbage based on lies and deceit.

That you can't figure out that difference says a great deal about you.

OH, and there are forums that exist IN SPADES elsewhere on the 'net, specifically geared toward "bashing" Mormonism. There you can go and "bash" to your heart's content, supported and abetted by a warm coterie of like-minded individuals.

You can even go to alt.religion.mormon, and engage in spirited "bashing" of Mormons, many of whom will respond to you with equal fervor. That ought to keep you happy for some time to come.

FR is not such a forum. That's something else that you and your ilk have never seemed to understand.
