My thread and poll regarding religion were deleted without explanation or penalty, despite the significant effort I put into them. Here was the original topic:
------------------------------------------------------------------------

First, I would ask the moderators not to bury this discussion within the existing threads concerning homosexuality.

I believe this subject warrants its own dedicated space and specific inquiries, given that it concerns a highly watched Sunday afternoon program featuring a very topical guest, Željka Markić.

We can evaluate and discuss what kind of impression Željka Markić left on you, and specifically: do you feel Željka Markić successfully argued the positions held by the "Family Values" initiative during the broadcast?

1) Can we use this thread to discuss the impact of watching a dialogue between a host and a Catholic who possess entirely different worldviews?

2) Was the dialogue constructive and characterized by mutual respect?

3) What is your impression of a Catholic who holds a university degree, speaks five languages, and lacks the traits many forum users
claim all Catholics possess—such as being narrow-minded, regressive, stuck in the Middle Ages, or possessing the education level of a fourth grader?

4) Is she a member of Opus Dei? If so, does that factor into her perspective; if not, does it matter?

The full broadcast can be found here:

The link to the article in the New York Post is here:

If I were to play the psychic, I would predict that the results of a poll here would be diametrically opposed to the findings in the New York Post.

Specifically, in the paper, as many as 78% of people😲voted that ŽM argued the positions of the Family Values initiative effectively.

By the way,it is interesting to observe how the majority of forum poll results fail to correlate with and remain irrelevant to real-world sentiment or mainstream news coverage.😲

In other words, on this forum, both the Family Values initiative and Željka Markić would likely lose.

In your opinion, who emerged victorious in the debate between Ace and Željka Markić??
------------------------------------------------

Some forums are reporting it this way:

-"Ace was completely overwhelmed. It was obvious. He went up against someone significantly more intelligent than himself. If I were in his shoes, I’d ask: what was I thinking?
Perhaps he isn't the right person to host these types of programs at all. He seemed somewhat incompetent. Maybe he should stick to hosting children's shows."

----
-"Our friend Željka dominated the puffed-up Ace. Even though we differ greatly ideologically, I fully support the association led by Željka."

I have a few questions and would appreciate some guidance from the moderators and site administration:

1) I’m looking for a reasoned explanation as to who decided to delete my thread—which, frankly, required a significant amount of effort—and what the specific reasoning was behind such an abrupt removal without any context provided. 🤷

2) Is it possible for me to revise the topic? Furthermore, what specific elements should I prune or expand upon to ensure the discussion remains substantive and sustains engagement over the long term?🙂

3) Would it be permissible to repost the entirety of my introductory text over in the Religion section, provided it is submitted as a single reply within an existing thread rather than a standalone topic?

Questions regarding homosexuality from both sociological and theological perspectives—a comprehensive discussion topic.

I think this thread might have already been moved over to the main discussion topic. If it hasn't happened yet, it probably will be very soon.

Here is the thread you're looking for, rapidmaker77.

Fine, but

1) I still haven't received an answer as to why the entire thread was deleted and then eventually buried under an endless sea of posts in some massive discussion about homosexuality and religion, especially AFTER I explicitly asked the moderators not to do that. 🤷

Because Stanković and Željka Markić deserve their own dedicated space.😁

2) On top of that, what used to be a standalone topic has been reduced to a single minor post that was pushed back two days into a thread that's already 400 posts deep, effectively ensuring no one will ever see or comment on it.😢

Am I allowed to just copy my original post and republish it as a fresh opening thread without facing any disciplinary action?.🤷

First off, this thread is strictly for political discussion—let's keep religion out of it. Also, we decided to consolidate everything under one main topic specifically because we want to avoid cluttering the forum with a dozen different threads covering the exact same ground.

You can just repost it once.
