Or is it the "Fox guarding the Hen House?"

That's one hella paragraph.

I've made probably as many posts criticizing religion as you have. There is, for example, a difference in saying that LDS beliefs are weird and non-sensical (which I think many of them are), and saying that LDS people are dupes, fools, uncritical sheep, dishonest, or go on down the line until it gets very nasty and personal. In the same way, criticizing Muslim beliefs is one thing (and I think many of them are stupid and/or dangerous), but essentially impugning the character of hundreds of million of people and attributing to them ill-intentioned stereotypes is another thing.

I'm just wondering out loud what the policy is here about where the line is and when/if this line gets crossed, what is done about it.

Chill out Jimmy, he was listing other sources. Did he personally offend you? If so go to the source.

There have been many Muslims who have helped America, they work as translator and have fought with American soldiers.

...true, but they also flew planes into the Trade Towers, an act so egregious...that it brought this entire country to its knees and change the economic landscape of the entire world!

Thanks Jamezz, for pointing out a most overlooked tid bit of information!

Thanks for clarifying your view.

...thanks Colton, for accepting and being a most reasonable man!

Help me out here! Where should I have broken it up? 2 paragraphs or 3?

Personally you should have stopped before the first paragraph.

Just ones opinion.

First of all, let me point out that my original post to start this thread...were all QUOTES from outside agencies and sources in connection with Obama's visit to the Mosque in Baltimore! Since it was a "hot" topic in the news, I thought I'd bring it up in connection as a news worthy idem!...

glad you clarified to some extent, it would help if you'd also include the source in your post - - you've been told to do so many, many times...

So there's a policy?

If something clearly doesn't cross a line (and I conceded that it's hard to draw lines here (like the one Supreme Court Justice said about ponography, "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it, although I suspect that plenty would disagree that he can identify it so well), then I agree, better to err on the side of free and open language.

that about sums it up

the closest we can come to any actual policy is what's stated in the Forum Rules, here's a reference for you:
