It's getting old, tiresome, and stupid. I don't even understand why the mods allow them to go on for so long when it just ends up being one big argument between the athiests and the believers and we all come to the same conclusion: nothing can be proved. Religious threads shouldn't even be allowed to be made; they should be banned to the deepest pits of hell before they even have a chance to get off the ground. Ugh.

I don't like them, but if mods did do that it would be even more of a dictatorship.

I have to disagree. Religion threads offer discussion. Don't read the threads you don't like. Simple enough to do.

It's less discussion and more yelling, arguing, and telling people that they are wrong for their beliefs. And I don't see the fun n discussing the same thing that has been discussed time and time again...

It's kinda hard when every other topic is a religious thread or a political thread. I don't really have much choice in the matter and I'd rather not leave OT because of it.

Then you don't have to read the thread. There are threads here that recur that I don't like. I don't read them...never made a thread complaining about them....because they don't bother me...since I don't READ them.;)

I don't think that religious threads should be banned. But I do see the point that religious threads should not be about mere arguing. Civilized conversation is how a religious thread (or any other thread for that matter) should be.

Problem with that is, I wouldn't think that a lot of people would post there. It'll only be perhaps 15 people max arguing about the same thing everyday. I mean, one religion topic per day out of 100 isn't too bad.

Off topic is just a mess. If I was an admin I'd have a board for what I mentioned above, and a board for Movies and T.V.

false, I'm sure you are aware of the numerous political threads. If sports gets its own board, I think my idea is valid.

Sports is a bit different. There are many different sports and each come with its numerous updates. Nobody wants the board to be filled with that.

there aren't enough religious threads to warrant a new board, and it could end up being worse than system wars anyway, seeing as how religion definitely causes heated debate

I'm pretty sure there are enough topics on religion, politics, and other random world conflicts to warrant a board. Nobody has successfully refuted my idea yet. I really think it would benefit OT.

Really? So OT should be about topics approved by you? How about the rest of us get some say....I think all death metal and similar music threads should be banned from OT. I don't listen to that music. I don't read YLYL so that should be banned as well.....

Just because you do not like them or think that they should have thier own board , does not make it a good idea. What about movies and tv , then music. If you take away certain stuff , then it just leads to more stuff being taken away and making OT boring.
