Members whinewine Posted April 3, 2009 Members Report Posted April 3, 2009 This thread is in the off topic catagory and if you read the desription of what this covers in the table of contents Pete posted his opinion in the right spot. People do not have to read a thread if they choose not to. Having THREAD NAZI's is reminesent of burning books and those kind of things. This is AMERICA, we are allowed to disagree and do not have to be mind numbing robots as stated by our Sectretary of State. Greg While I agree this is in an'off topic' area, I truly feel that Religion/Politics/Moral Judgements (R/P/MJ) should not be included in a leather forum. This is about LEATHER and the CRAFT AND ARTISTRY OF LEATHER, not about 'MY OPINION ABOUT... R/P/MJ'. There are enough sites out there that cater to that. Here, 'MY OPINION ABOUT...R/P/MJ' doesn't/shouldn't count: by that same token, 'YOUR OPINION ABOUT...R/P/MJ' shouldn't either. R/P/MJ opinions are like rectums: everyone has one- they don't need another one. There is enough off topic stuff to discuss without getting into this type of nastiness that pisses people off. There were several sites I used to belong to (other stuff, not leather, btw), that ultimately were commandeered by people with very strong political agendas & anyone who would dare disagree with those politics risked being villified. They became political, rather than what they were meant to be, & because they had lost purpose and meaning, I stopped going there. It was no longer fun & it was no longer informative. I would hate to see LW turn into that. russ
