Yes, this does take me back! I haven't seen an "I'm leaving the Downs... forever!" thread in a good long while. You've been awarded a week's ban to speed you on your way, though as Sauce said, you are welcome back after you've worked out your issues on this one.
We don't ask a lot from people. One of those things is that they don't troll. An impressive reputation slices both ways -- it means you are even more responsible to set a decent example of how we roll on the Downs.
This thread is closed.
Cross-posted with nafforc: here's the thing -- this incident really has very little to do with religion, at least from the administration's point-of-view. We've always given more leeway to religious discussions here because of the role played by religion (of various stripes) in Tolkien's life and work. Let this be a lesson instead to all members: reasonable discussion can be conducted on any topic so long as people avoid childish behavior. Mocking ridicule is not the only way to express opposition, as the thread, and other discussion all over the Downs, clearly show.
