It's starting already. The Xians are getting jealous.

If the Muslims can implicitly threaten anyone who mocks them with terrorist bombings, why can't Xians?

Xians? Never heard of it - who are they?

The matter is by no way trivial.
I have been a member over on apologetics.com longer that on infidels.org, simply because I discovered it earlier, and have some 850 or so posts there. I have not been censored once. Mind you I've been accused of all sorts but that doesn't bother me in the slightest and I enjoy the arguments. I haven't been censored here either but the mods here are a bit more active, presumably because there are far more members.

How are these equated? The first is either true or irrelevant, the other is demonstratably false.
