its brought me lots of attention


but i think that people like the flood and the ninjas dont like that word

obviously it has to do with religion so why not censor it?

if it isn't cencored, but religious discussion isn't allowed, then i believe that is a paradox...

I am...whimsical today.

It's useful in the Universe forum, in the context of how the Covenant see/saw the Forerunner.

1. It's not a paradox. I'm positive you just wanted to use the word "paradox" in your post. The word you're looking for is "ironic".

2. Allah (sp?) is censored. Yahweh isn't censored. Flyingspaghettimonster isn't censored. Zeus isn't censored. Hell isn't censored. Devil isn't censored. Should we also censor church? And mosque? And temple? And priest? And rabbi?

There's no reason to censor these words, and yet, if you censor God, along the same feign you should censor all of the above words.

(oh, also censor Christmas. It's a religion thing, too.)

Because God doesn't exist, it's just a word and nothing else. Why should be blocked?

I don't find it offensive or useable to offend someone else. It's just a word or expression.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

Really?

OT (I think; the OP is banned after all): I would be completely for censoring all articles for a day (April Fools)?

I think words that are blocked are the ones that are used to offend a person directly not in general. I think, although only the webmaster knows why some words are blocked and others aren't.
