Just to say, we have a general anti-war/politics stance here too and we'd carry that to Religious debates that do breed bad blood, so I don't think that's a bad way to look at things from the perspective of running a forum...
Dunno why a "happy holidays" thread can't just sum everything up for some, but whatever... It's not a debate, it's well wishing, so one thread should have sufficed the masses... That's what likely should have gone down. I wouldn't want to see umpteen threads for all various religions, and subsequent fighting over said religions, over here either but locking well-wishing threads seems odd unless there was fighting.
For the record guys, try not to throw the term Nazi around either... I know we all have our beef with Scum but the term's pretty much only applicable to actual Nazi's not a forum that's run half-assed.
I saw a great Daily Show about how liberally the term Nazi was used by politicians, and it really is a term we should hold in reserve for like actual Nazi behavior... Scum's still run like **** though, no disagreement there.
