You are most likely posting to a Christian-run board, where Christian harassment is protected by Christian censors.
Don't let the misleading title "Religion & Spirituality" fool you. This is not a free-speech zone.

You really think that ALL of Yahoo! Answers is moderated by a bunch of Christians??
Where do you get that ridiculous idea??
Really, you're jumping to some pretty crazy assumptions.

I am a "NO". Does that qualify me to answer?
I like the game here on Yahoo and I did sign up and say I would accept the rules. It was free and I made a decision [don't know if it was a free-will decision. By my faith I say it was not OK].
Because of me clicking I accept, I am obligated to take the knocks no matter what I do think of it. If I was the boss, maybe I would make changes. I am not sure for I do not even think of tha concept. I am just content to visit here every day, smile, get mad, laugh [sometimes out loud] and be able to participate. Ha Ha I can be serious, jole, and write stuff my wife does not even know about. So as an old man [age 66} I can do things on Yahoo and not have to say YES DEAR all the time to stay alive ha ha.
I do thank my God for Yahoo and all that I do learn here. Wow one can sure see some very different personalities here and can even see the raw humankind on full display. Just check out some profiles, read some questions and then check out the answers.
Some time I am greatful I can go to church right here and learn all about the bible and no one passes the collection plate. Nice way to spend every day in church and not just Saturday or Sunday OK.
Ha Ha I just expect to get bashed every time I type a question or give an answer ha ha. If you don't like the scars, just read but do not post my friend. You know one who is silent [don't post] may look very wise to all others.
Now do have a good day and just enjoy the free while we have it.

I posted on her page I was the first one to post there. Actually there is no rules stating they can't comment on your questions. However there is one for them harassing you. So keep reporting them. Then go to the "yahoo Answers TEAM blog" and post a comment on there stating some suggestions you think would help or need to be done.
I dont practice any religion and I'm not against any neither. However I dont wish to have them bible thumpers trying to shove their religion in my face or anyone Else's. If they are strong in their faith they would NOT be trying to convert people on here. This is called Yahoo Answers it is NOT one of their bible thumpers sessions. They have a right to believe in what they want and so does everyone else. I don't try to convert them they dont need to try to convert anyone else.

What a shallow, risicilous question. Islam is a vile religion that traps and ends free speech, with dirtiness and foul play. No christian in modern times has ever flew a plane into an Islamic stae building, or bombed an islamic train. Islam traps people in the dark ages, and takes away there liberties. Islamic states are trapped in the medival period. End of.

I do have views on religion that does not match those of religious people but I never been harassed by anybody, Christians or any other faith; not so far.
Most of the Christian countries and cultures promote free-speech. I am not Christian but the truth is the truth. The most-censored nations are not Christian nations.

I would neither expect nor want them to interfere.
They offer us this service free of charge and if we declare openly our beliefs - unpopular as they might be - we need to expect a certain degree of harrassment. We need to be careful about what and how we post - but that's internet logic and etiquette, not Yahoo! policy.
I don't believe that Yahoo!'s moderators are anything like 100% Christian. How many Christians do you really think there are working in IT?

It is a free speech zone, but it is not one that allows diatribes, invective and hate. If you want to follow one of the last 3 lines of questions, they are not welcome here.

I don't expect them to help. I can take care of myself if need be.
I basically choose to ignore harassment because it doesn't make me a better person to go after them.. I will not go down to their level. Nit picking solves nothing.
