Banning of theists.
Isn’t the banning of theists here a little like waving a red flag at a bull? At the Anti-Church forum (my usual gaff) there is no ban, but theists often pretend to be otherwise (wolves in sheep’s clothing?) just to get more attention. They are quickly outed as they cant keep a stopper on god/jesus etc for long. You must have had them here. We had one recently who was a vicar claiming to be an atheist! Yes, seriously.
I am curious as to why the fearful are banned here at all though. Is it to wind up (annoy) them or what?

Banning of people here usually is from someone disturbing the site or someone who just makes useless posts that go nowhere. Its basically to keep order.

I get it. Fair enough. Thanks
Yep. They don't get banned for being theists - usually for dishonesty or trolling.
I agree, the theists are not banned for being theists. They are usually disrupting the board or breaking rules in some way. I personally know another atheist who was banned(temporarily) for breaking the rules after he was warned, so it is not only theists.
Is poor behaviour predominantly from theists then? If not, the ban would seem to say less about ‘them’ and more about ‘us’.

Predominately yes, it from theists. If you stick around and continue to post you will eventually see what is takes to be banned.
A lot of theists who get banned will come to the boards just to start fights, not engage in true discussion and plagarize theistic websites with no ability to back up their arguments.
All I can is stick around and it will become apparent.
Track St. Michael or bodhiharta as examples.
