Well, mods and staff should be allowed to be human and make mistakes, too. We hold them to a higher standard for obvious reasons, but they make mistakes just like everybody else.
Agreed. And I was the first to say that no real harm was done, because we all know Rayaan. That said, its been made apparently clear that Rayaan has no remorse and/or qualms with harassing new people. I certainly don't believe theists should be subjected to this treatment for merely signing up and having non conformist beliefs. He obviously has no remorse on the matter despite general consensus-- and that: I think, is where he stepped past the line.
I think a formal warning was called for, but since that didn't happen, we're in this mess.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
