It discusses the politicization of faith and the effect it has on growing atheism in the USA.
Seems like it would be the exact type of religious/political mix that we were told was necessary for religious threads on the poli board.
So why was it moved?

What exactly is the political relevance? Be specific.
Also, the thread is doing big business on the O-T.

This move-religion-to-the-OT rule is officially the stupidest policy in TD history
ETA: Though at least it is bringing Christians and atheists together on one issue

Seriously, dude?
A question about whether the politicization of faith pushes people away isn't politically relevant?

Your thread is on fiya in the OT.
I do not question administration.

It's an interesting topic and the thread is doing big business on the O-T.
Why is this such a big issue for you? You're a guest here. The board's owners made a decision about where they want threads to be posted.
Chill out, bro.

Lord no. Better on the OT than in Political Talk.

It's a policy that's capriciously enforced.
This thread has devolved into a purely religious exchange. Yet, it remains on Political Talk, probably because it's doing "big business"...

how about the separation of church and state one that had political relevance.
I think you are being to strict on this LA

ok I understand I remember having discussions about if laws have heavy religious influence or not. But I guess the others in the thread derailed the political side of the issue.

Because the Admins are acting stupidly. I had a thread where I pointed out specifically where it was related to politics, but it was moved.
The Admins then deleted two threads on here relating to it.
