How about instead of "not a question or answer", or "chatting and personal communication" we just let them say crossed my theolgy? Wouldn't that save so much time and aggravation? Then they could honestly say I am reporting this because what you said does not fit into the world view of my doctrine, and therefore, I will report it because it offends me.

Great idea!!!
My personal favorite is when they cry, on here or anywhere else online, that they are being persecuted. I guess they don't know that you can end it just by clicking the X at the top right. *sigh*
And I bet you get reported several times for this one. Or one of the Yahoo! Answers "managers" will turn red in the face and delete it before anyone can report it.
But still... a Great Idea!!!!! *wink*

While I don't agree with Christians who simply report questions that are contrary to their beliefs, as a Christian I believe that we shouldn't force people to believe a certain thing because then that would dehumanize them by removing their free will.
No, Yahoo! shouldn't add a new category. Something that offends you is not reason for reporting. I may be offended by certain methods that people give for answers on this site, but if it does not violate the guidelines, it has no merit for being reported.

You've pointed out some of the faults of Yahoo. Some people really need to be reported, and truthfully yes, a lot of the reporting is bogus.
But as a journalist, I understand the power of words and the fact that other people's opinions can land you in hot water. In clearer words, the media can be sued for discrimination. Yahoo is really just covering their backside.

no. But they should look at every reported questions and not automaticaly remove itbecause someone simply didn't like it. I have seen too many wonderful and innocuous ones that have been deleted. And I hope they are keeping track of people who are reporting many questions . Maybe some are in a contest to see who can reports the most.

Definitely. Between the trinitarians and the JW's, it is hard to answer a question honestly without them being offended and reporting for no reason.

An "Am I Pregnant?" area. i comprehend there is already a "being pregnant" classification yet for some reason the "Am I pregnant?" questions finally end up in each classification except that one. I basically imagine if we had an "Am I Pregnant?" classification, ignorant human beings should be lots a lot less puzzled about the position to positioned those questions.

Some ******** will probably report you for it. You are absolutely correct. I hate when douche bags answer a question by stating, " Reported."

I think the 'report abuse' button should trigger a high-voltage electrical shock through the mouse button.
Does Yahoo! have that kind of technology?

I would prefer it to be called "insulted my pet mythology" but that's just me. Only within the twisted world of Christendom would refuting a Christian's idea be considered a "personal insult."
