Somebody asked earlier why there are so few "original" questions asked in R&S, his assumption was that most questions are just recycled versions of questioned already asked.. This may be largely responsible for this phenom, I have another "theory":
Every original question that challenges religious beleif in any way is overreported by the monkies and gets deleted before it is exposed to a larger audience..

s more than 70% of the questions I give a lot of thought to.

ENt, yes, I asked a Question of CHristians and Muslims if they considered Reality as we experience it evil in their religion.
IN other words, if a human's perception of reality is an evil one which needs to be correcte by faith in god... It was deleted within ten minutes..

I am not sure of how original my question may or may not have been, but I didn't plaguerize it from anywhere that I am aware of...

Last Ent, this is only one of many that have been deleted recently, not disrespectful not baiting, not insulting in any way questions...

I've seen and answered several original questions here. Most have not been deleted. Can you give me an example of an "original" question that was silenced?
EDIT - Oh well in that case I would rephrase your question and direct it only toward Christians. That sounds like a fun one to answer. Every question I've ever asked that involved Muslims has been deleted and I've gotten quite a few answers deleted as well. I'm not pointing any fingers at anyone, just stating my experience.

Perhaps many questions are recycled because new users are coming on all the time; they may not look back to see what questions have been recently asked and answered. Sometimes I ask a question that's already been asked several months ago, because as a newbie myself, I don't know those old posters and want to know what the current people on here think.
But if I were a betting person, I'd put money on your theory being right, also.

I think that a main reason people feel the need to constantly recycle questions is that they tend to die very fast. Just now, I broke my own record by getting 42 answers to a question in around 20 minutes. Now, though, I could extend it over and over again and I guarantee it won't get more than two or three more answers.

I fully agree. On a comparative level, I haven't really been asking/answering for all that long (even though I've been a member on here for awhile), but already, I've received many unwarranted "Violation notices" and had questions or answers deleted. And I believe that, most of the time, it boils down to the face that I'm an outspoken Agnostic -- something the Christian zealots in here obviously don't like. I get "thumbs down" on a regular basis for answers that are completely neutral in nature -- but I've mentioned that I'm an Agnostic, too. And even though I ask for a private explanation (and my IMs and email ARE open), I never get them.

Funny -- that's not in any Bible I'VE ever read...

I agree. There are quite a few pre-pubescent children wandering through here. Needless to say, questions get repeated often, and not much original thought. I have had questions deleted as well. I also seem to get reported for many of my answers. I suspect the christian coalition.

This question is very much up to interpretation...
I do have a theory, that is completely my own. My theory is priorities. It has nothing to do with recycled questions... but hey, ya asked.

I've only had about 10 questions/answers deleted, mostly questions. ..... and mostly because I nailed the atheists. Usually my questions only get deleted when I expect them to. Most of my questions aren't.
