I want this forum to be an inclusive community where any hockey fan feels welcome to discuss the Flames latest struggles (let's face it, that is the raison d'etre of this site), current issues in hockey and society (like this one), or just to post their gear grinders. I think posts which intentionally mock another poster's deeply and sincerely held religious beliefs (be they Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or otherwise) do not contribute to the inclusivity of this forum. That is disappointing.
All that said, that issue (which could be addressed by raising it with the forum moderators) has nothing whatsoever to do with the allegations against Bill Peters, which are of an entirely different nature, and are clearly much more serious (especially considering the historical context of North American civilization). At best, raising your concerns in this thread (instead of with moderators) is a distraction. At worst, it is an attempt to deflect discussion from the Bill Peters allegations.
