Showing Original Post only (View all)Why is there so much negativity against religion in General Discussion? [View all]
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Turborama (a host of the General Discussion forum).
I see that there are groups here for the discussion of religion, or lack of, on the site. Yet, there are people posting things that are hurtful for many here on a Forum that clearly states no religion is to be discussed. The group that is being attacked is answering back and this is causing a feud.
It is of course just my opinion, but to say such hurtful things in a main forum where you know it will hurt fellow users that are of the same political though is non-productive. It is of no propose save to cause trouble.
Why is it being allowed?

There is a line - If you can propose something without proof then you can negate it without proof.
