Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.
RE: Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.
I briefly posted on a one a xtian site but found people enormously defensive and hostile about it. Not every theist who shows up here gets that treatment. When they do it is often because they carry that defensiveness and hostility in here with them.

But seriously, do you think any xtian website is any where near as open and fair as this one? And I'm talking about the structure of the rules and their enforcement, not the conduct of the members. There is a sizable number in each camp which will gladly cast a first stone. But if you know of a xtian site that runs a better ship than this one, why are you here instead of there? Please tell me so I can try it out. (Hint: if admitting to being an admitted atheist is grounds for banning, not interested.)

Now you have me curious, which site was that?
