What do you think a person has to gain by policing public forums that are not employed by said sites?

    When you think about it, isn't religion or non belief all tied up in politics?

    It always has since time man existed.

    I think it makes them feel big and powerful. Sad really. Another case of those who can do (Post interesting questions) and those who can't report.
