You were banned for this post. Nowhere in there are you specifying evangelical Christians, or fundamentalist, or any type of extreme. You're making a jab at an entire belief system, and that absolutely isn't okay. Heck, it's the first example listed in Rule 13.

Like it or not...this forum is welcome to users of all political and religious beliefs...and that won't change.

Still see nothing wrong with the post. It's not an extreme or minority position of Christians to deny basic scientific facts.

How can I be banned for suspecting that Christians would be happy about an anti-scientific perspective? Seems entirely factual.

Let's see here, I've been moderated for not being able to read someone's mind in order to discontinue posting on their wall. (StarOcean was the mod)

I find it absolutely perplexing that my first ban was 7 days as well. That mod (Star Ocean) is clearly emotionally unstable to have placed such a harsh ban on me for his own blunder.

The progressive system is absolutely atrocious. It's akin to committing three counts of petty theft and receiving a life sentence. Punishment fits the crime, it doesn't scale arbitrarily.

Explain your logic please. This should be hilarious to read.

Do you have to read peoples minds to know if you are bothering them or not?

Could you post the actual reason for the moderation that can be found in your mod report on your profile so we can see what the real reason is and not just take your word for it.

A reasonable person makes it clear that they wish to discontinue the conversation. They do not simply respond to my comments and then covertly grab a moderator. That's about as juvenile as it gets.

The reason presented is a complete fabrication I'm afraid but here it is: 

Trolling (Trolling and spamming someones wall when told not to. Flaming at a mod.)

You can visit this person's wall to see my posts to them:

Can you link the posts in question? I'd like to review them. If it was unfair, though I'm not the mod in question, I apologize. If it was justified, however, then I'd advise a reconsideration of posting certain things.

But we'll take a look.

Most are contained in this post but I would like the progressive system addressed more than anything.

PS: I apologize for the verbosity of this post, but I thought if I truncated it additionally things would become unclear.
