We assume our members already have a grasp of civility and proper decorum. The overwhelming majority of our members have no problem ascertaining acceptable, proper behavior. If someone needs to learn those skills, they need to do it somewhere else and then come here and participate.
This is something we can split hairs on all day. Anyone seriously confused by the issue may be in the wrong place.
I like to know where I stand, and where the people who control the places I go in life, and online stand, and how our interactions are to be understood from my angle, so that there is no confusion. It is improper for a website which claims to deny ignorance, to censor people for being honest. That in itself is the height, the very pinnacle of ignorance and stupidity.

US americans tend to be so anal (If this is considered a curseword, I'm outta here) about bloody drat curse-words?
Also, apart from hypocrisy practice, why, is it that For Pete's sake is acceptable, while for ****'s sake is not?
Is there some inherent blasphemy law that I don't know of, is it for fear of being smited from above?
