Would You Prefer That Religious and Political Threads Be Banned Again?

Many newfoman may not remember this (nothing against you, you just weren't here then), but there existed a time when what you could post on this site was much more restrictive. Even with b.new, it's not nearly as strict as b.old. Two things you never saw much of then were topics discussing religion and topics discussing politics. Come b.next in late 2012-early 2013, that veil was lifted and now they make up half of the Offtopic forum. So, point being, should Topics discussing both religion and politics be bannable again?[spoiler]Disclaimer: this isn't an atack or insult to anyone of any religious belief and or political preference.[/spoiler] EDIT: Since the OP isn't that clear, let me clarify. The OP Is in a way, my take on the subject, but I'm asking for YOUR opinion wether for or against the idea.

  • Not at all, i'm glad we have more freedom in what we can discuss, and in time as we adjust to these new rules I feel that these subjects will become much more tame in discussion. As you said, before we couldn't utter a peep about these topics, when you open the floodgates after that long of course people are going to use the topics as bait and not discuss them reasonably, but in time the obsession will pass, and those who actually wish to discuss the subjects in a serious and dignified manner will be capable of doing so. Sure you'll always have those, "i'm never wrong" or "you're all idiots for believing what I don't believe" types of people, but as in reality, there's no shortage of them anywhere you go. We can ignore them like we do anyone else who's immaturity isn't worth addressing. We have the time, and we will adapt.
