I will list something specific. Sunala's Friday thread was moved to Among Friends because it was considered religious in nature. Even though it wasn't overtly religious, many agreed that is religious, so would qualify for being moved. Okay. Fair enough.

Why, then, is a religious thread currently on the front page, and allowed to stand yet the other thread is not?

Did they change their mind, and no longer consider religious topics controversial?

I've wondered about that myself.

I though Sunala's thread was moved by her because meanies were getting it poofed.

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

Oh! I think I can answer that. One is a weekly occurrance. One is a "Happy Birthday".

Gloria Jean's threads, weeklies, are no longer allowed here either so I think they are sticking to their guideline in this case.

I understand what you're saying scottie but weekly, daily or once in a blue moon it shouldn't matter if the topic/subject is religious in nature. All should be treated the same.

Could we say Happy Birthday to Mother Teresa?

Possibly. I do know the thread ran here from 2005 when I started posting until very recently.

She isn't the only one who was stopped from posting religious topics on VP. gloriajean was asked to post her Daily thread on AF. She didn't move there voluntarily. They wanted to accomodate her, and decided that was the best solution.

Is there actually complaint because there is a Billy Graham birthday thread ?

Concern enough to contact the QVC Social Team
