If these resident theists really talk to god..

I only pointed out that I am being formally repermanded by one of those in power simply because i said something his sensitive ears did not like.

For the last time, you were not reprimanded by "one of those in power". It was a joint staff decision. In other words, action was not taken until a working consensus of staff members had been reached. By all means, query that decision if you have a reason for doing so and feel you can mount a reasonable appeal. But please, do tell us again how I have a personal vendetta against you. We appreciate a laugh.

In fact, while I've got your attention, this is the second time to my knowledge that you've complained of a "formal reprimand". Let's be quite clear on this: what you were subject to was a verbal warning. A formal warning usually comes next, unless the circumstances warrant fast-tracking due process. Is that what you want? Look what happened the last time someone tried to provoke staff intervention - we went immediately to a seven-day ban instead of the first-stage warning they were expecting.

Again if you want the trivial right to censor at will unpopular speech, then just make a rule that says you have that power.

Now ask yourself why we don't have such a rule.
