How is it at all fair or morally justified to allow only one religion in particular to have an entire sub-forum for discussion?


How many JSPers that you actually know of have petitioned for a sub-forum for their religion ?

That would be none of course .

Who has been disallowed to your knowledge ?

That would be no one of course .

You have no case for any injustice .

Nothing else, except for a Jewish subforum, has been requested.

I am now officially petitioning for a subforum devoted to the church of the flying spaghetti monster.

Explain why it is unjust .


Um.
It's pretty self-explanatory.

Only Christians get to have a special space?
Why can't Buddhists also get one?
Why can't Muslims also get one?
Why can't Jews also get one?
Why can't Deists also get one?
Why can't Atheists also get one? Wait, actually that pretty much exists in the science subforum so Atheists are fine.

The christian dudes do have a point though, guys. According to thundercock, only one religious group literally petitioned for their own subforum.

I guess there's no other subforum because there aren't enough religious people who are interested in such.
And there's so many christians that if they were to post all their threads in PaRD they'd just get in the way of everything. Honestly this doesn't bother me that they have a subforum.

It's mainly the sheer number of christians that calls for a christian subforum.

Fallacious reasoning. There are a plethora of reasons as to why people of varying religions would not petition (one of the big ones being that njaguar doesn't give a rat's ass about a person who hasn't donated's opinion, so it would be rather fruitless). That doesn't, however, make them any less entitled to their own sub-forum.

Explain to me the justice in favoring one group of religious folk over another.

You know why those JSPers haven't petitioned for a sub-forum of their own? Because a religious subforum already exists. But only Christians would feel that their one and only true belief requires special mention/protection, only Christians would be so conceited as to say that what goes on and who posts in such a subforum requires a belief in the Christian god, only Christians would harshly punish someone on a gaming website for posting a Christian-related youtube vid in a thread made for Christian music with other youtube vids.

Am I wrong to be angry?

Just tell me that Azrad didn't get warned for his Atheist beliefs and I will leave it alone.

It seems you are more angry that Azrad got warned than anything else . I like him as well but the last time I checked he is a big boy and he probably knew he was walking a tight rope when he posted whatever it was he posted .

I read the forum guideline before I posted there and hopefully others read it and understand that flaming and spamming there is going to be punished .

edit : I think I can safely say he didn't get warned for being an atheist .
