Yes, religious posts have been acceptable in the past, but there hasn't been an Atheist post in the past. From what I've seen in the past, any post about Atheism/Agnosticism/Paganism usually results in a flame war, which justifies the pre-emptive closing of the thread. I also never said Atheist's didn't post without using Gracious Professionalism. You said everyone here posts with Gracious Professionalism, is it graciously professional to close a thread because of the thread starters religion? Please don't accuse people of discrimination without some rock hard solid proof. Now before you say that I am trying to censor Atheism, I believe that this thread should be open as long as people who post in it use Gracious Professionalism.
