Andrew,


I rarely if ever post anything other than astronomy related material but was interested to learn that global warming is a banned subject. I would have expected that science in general would not be something that a forum such as this would have an issue with.


As always I respect peoples right to have beliefs that may differ significantly from my own views and it could be argued that science in itself is a belief system. The significant difference from other belief systems is that it is prepared to modify those beliefs when tested.


So, my question is how does the line between what is acceptable and not get drawn? Is it based on posts that get out of hand, where they get personal or derogatory or are there some other criteria?
