Help[Facts] Re: Announcement: comments
in reply to a message by Mike C
I LOVE that comments are moderated now, but I wonder what is considered acceptable and what isn't? There are a lot of comments that could be useful but could be considered racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-religion, etc. For example, are these two comments moderated differently and how:
"I can't believe anyone would believe in God, much less name their child Jesus. I feel like this name is only used by ignorant fundie quacks."
and
"Jesus is too religious of a name for me to consider using. People will always associate it with Jesus Christ."
Because I would view the first as anti-religion and moderated to be removed but I would see the second as a helpful yet considerate comment for someone who may be interested in using the name Jesus and could be swayed by that information.
