RE: "The Prime Directive"
I was going to make a witty remark about no longer being allowed to interfere with more primitive species, but then I realised that few species were more primitive than me.

Everybody knows I'm the favorite. It comes up in every thread where I dare disagree, so it must be true.

Anyway, Tibs, you sort out that not talking about pedophilia question or should I start a thread about pedophilia and see what happens?

The pope will object strenuously.

The rule has been updated and now reads:

Quote:While discussion of pedophilia / child pornography in relation to news-worthy stories is allowed, general discussion of the subjects and accusations of pedophilia is not.

We don't want to avoid discussion of pedophilia / child porn when it is news worthy. We do however want to avoid threads discussing it in general, the legality of it, or accusing people of it.

I believe a line should be easy to be drawed. Its one thing to discuss scandals on church, political parties associations. Its another thing to accuse others or a group of people of a real crime they haven't commited.

Generally speaking, I'm less interested in kiddy porn when it is in the news than when it is used to defame a particular religion or member of said religion .. but I'll just keep that to myself.   Angel

Sorry, this is a little ambiguous...is flaming/trolling permitted or not?

I think singling out one controversial topic and banning its discussion is a little bit silly. Just my two cents worth.
