it seems that completely normal questions are being deleted due to your dislike of the replies or the question.
does anyone know if Yahoo has been contacted by your cult lawyers yet?
I know there are other total free speech religion bashing websites out there, but apparently you have noticed that Yahoo Answer's has huge coverage and gives any single user mass coverage of their issues publicly on Google and other search engines. Giving you, as an origination a bad rap, sometimes,
Here's one to cut and paste for the governing body, or your lawyers.

the cult lawyer Im referring to is Joel Faxon of Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder, apparently they represent numerous cases for WTB and Christian Scientology.

Please supply ANY proof as to one of Jehovah's Witnesses being a moderator on here.
ONLY the MODs can remove a question or answer.
I personally have NEVER emailed something to the Watchtower Bible and Tract society. I doubt I would even know how if I needed to.
I will let you know this, it almost always seems to be one of the last questions from someone about to be deleted is "Why are (insert group) deleting my questions and answers"?
As for "running in packs" I am the only Witness that I know for sure is on here. I came to Y!A to ask and answer questions. To ask questions one must have points, correct? To get points you must answer/vote on, questions. To get points quicker it helps to get Best Answers. To get best answers it is helpful to answer about what you know. I am a Christian, one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I answer about what I know, which among other things, includes my faith.
As for the "huge coverage" and "mass coverage" I honestly have NO idea what you are talking about. Sorry.
If something gets deleted it is because after someone reported it, the Moderators decided to remove it, not because some grouping decided it hurt their feelings.
Hope this helps.
Edit
I loved the answer from the person who says "They aren't allowed to drink". As this person plainly pointed out, Christ's first recorded miracle was the famed turning of water into wine. So why would we have some sort of ban on drinking?? I personally don't drink, it doesn't agree with me, but as a Faith we have nothing against drinking.
Your profile says you just started on here yesterday, how many questions have you seen deleted since then?

Well, I'm not a J.W. but my suggestion (and I don't care one way or the other) would be to phrase your questions so as not to offend.
Granted -- it does not take much to offend some people. Actually, I think some people like to act offended all the time, perhaps thinking it somehow makes them appear more innocent or saintly. Just makes them look stupid. But, I digress.
Just phrase your questions carefully.

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 1 Pet. 5:8-9
You'll definetly fit in here! The reason questions and answeres get deleted is because of cowardice and exposure of the truth. If I remember right we all have freedom of speech.

we don't have to defend our faith We are aware that people hide from us, you really don't have to do that just say your not interested,
We go to your homes at OUR EXPENSE only to show you what the Bible teaches, YOUR RELIGION IS YOUR BUSINESS
You cannot JOIN JEHOAH'S WITNESSES
You have to qualify to be one, & that often shuts out many who want to be part of the world & not of God's Kingdom
(James 4:4) 4 Adulteresses, do YOU not know that the friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever, therefore, wants to be a friend of the world is constituting himself an enemy of God.. . .
You have been MISLEAD BY THE ANTICHRIST, & we can prove it, but Jesus was serious ;;when he said they would be " wolves in sheeps clothing" \]
So who is the antichrist? lets go back to the 1st century
(1 John 2:18) . . . Young children, it is the last hour, and, just as YOU have heard that antichrist is coming, even now there have come to be many antichrists; from which fact we gain the knowledge that it is the last hour.
And those who like to call us a cult, that means following a man, Like the Catholics do, Our leader is Jesus Christ

First we can ban them and then to be fair Catholics. Then mormans and surely muslims fit into that profile of dangerous religions. So why do we have a religion and spirituality section? If you don't like it why don't you go into computers and answer my questions. I desperately need an answer.

Don't throw out the baby with the cult. JW's are good, honest, sincere people "trying" to serve God. Problem is, their founder was a false prophet, and therefore, should not be followed. JW's are against celebrations, but Jesus' first miracle was at a wedding. JW's can't drink but Jesus' first miracle was making wine. They just don't get it.
