Do you believe its fair to parade someone's quote on a sig from a topic unrelated all over. If I had the stupidity to go look, I could find something you posted that is bad. But then I have the mental fortitude to adress people on topic, if I wish.
This is the crux. This rule serves theistic, atheistic and all betwixt.
So yeah, we are not going to warn you for quoting Jesus.
I have no problem with the rule, my point was there is already precedent set for banning signatures that quote other members. Making it a rule now implies that there was no basis for the aforementioned action.
