i noticed something here in nairaland, islam have a separate section and not only that it is also free of criticism and skeptical analysis... i understand that even the moderators are muslims... why not give the christians their own forum with christian moderators. . .So that this religious forum will be a neutral ground for all... then we agnostics, humanists, atheists and deits will use the religion section only to voice our mind on both the two religions so it wont only seem we attack the christians... Seun abeg can you do something about giving the christians their own forum so it would seem fair to all.

Why do you have to open another account?

Rilwanyne01......

If the confession of faith Seun put in the Islamic section was here will you have mouth to talk?

This is the stupid thing that Seun always do when people raise voice about this he will post this link and closed the thread.

Why can't he do the same thing by creating a thread like this in Islamic section, if he's not religious bigotry?

Islam has plenty of fanatics who have been constantly threatening fellow Nairalanders, mods and Seun himself with violence and death due to their inability to cope with rational discourse. The Islam section was created to quarantine those fanatics and keep them isolated from the majority of sane people who just want to talk about religion without having to deal with death threats.
The general religion section is open to everybody, Muslims included, its not just for Christians alone. This is a major reason it is so vibrant be cause everybody brings their own point of view, falsehood and irrationality gets challenged and everybody gets to learn something by reading it.
Compare that to the Islam section which is a boring echo chamber rehashing the same tired nonsense over and over like a North Korean news program. The place is a empty wasteland and the only time anything exiting happens there is when a non-Muslim sneaks in to challenge them. Creating a christian section is a bad idea because it is likely to meet the same fate and since Christians are far less likely to kill Seun and the mods, its really not necessary.
The reason they want their own section is because they are tired of being destroyed by secular logic and they want to be able to stifle discussion and post, what is essentially, spam unopposed. This directly against the whole essence of a discussion forum and there is no reason why anybody should humor them. The Muslims get a section because the harbour plenty of violent fanatics and Seun doesn't want to die. Whenever Christians start killing people again, maybe then they can get a section.

Due to the religious diversity of the Nairaland community, it's impossible to come up with policies that will make everyone happy. We can't give everyone what they want, even if we try, because some people want the opposite of what some other people want. We do not seek to favour or help or disfavour or harm any religion; our priority is the Nairaland community as a whole - what's best for Nairalanders as a group. If you have complaints about our policies, or questions about why we're doing this or that, please send your complaints to the supermods via the home page. We'll respond to your complaints as quickly as we can and update this thread with the answers to your frequently asked questions.
