The forums are intended for offering mutual personal support related to recovery from addiction or recovery for family and friends. This is our primary purpose. Debating controversial subjects should be taken elsewhere...
No politics at all on the board, please,

I second that for both!
Itch.
C'mon don't quote me out of context.
I've already explained the reason for increased rigidity on the politics rule and why I don't think a similar rigidity on the religious rule is either necessary or workable.
The rules are designed to be inclusive- we want everyone to feel welcome here, even when they don't always agree on everything.
I'm worried already that some people may feel less welcome in the thread.
I'd hate that to happen to anyone - no matter what side they're on or what they believe.
Your objections have been noted Itch. Yours too Andy...
but because this thread is about recovery and support, I'm gonna leave it there
