And I don't mean the "beast" with the triple sixes.

Faith and religion are very, very personal things. Saying you disagree on something is, on an emotional level, akin to questioning a person's ancestry.

This naturally means that if a *very* tight rein isn't kept on the board it will degenerate into a nasty, name calling, very ugly place.

Interestingly the same thing happend to the Halliburton message board on yahoo! finance, something I stumbled across way, way before the current Iraq situation. It has, for years, been a place for lots of (in my opion) uninformed political ranters.

Here's a link. I just looked at it, and for once it's fairly tame....by this boards usual standards.
