I think Tony has done a fine job answering this. It's funny, we leave a thread, we're wrong. We close a thread, we're censors, and wrong again. What's that old saying? Can't make all of the people happy ever, or something like that.
Looking back, the "americans are dumb" thread should have been closed in the first 2 seconds. The god thread should also have been removed, although I have to say after 3 pages, it has remained civil. Still, I'm recommending to the rest of the staff that any future politcs/religion threads be prohibited. This is a reef board, and I'm sure there are boards about gods and politicians elsewhere, and people should go there to discuss it.
