Secondly, it appears from a guy who has had many posts taken down for being political, that you are incorrect in your identification of the two forbidden topic. Your thread is title IF NOT GOD, THEN HOW and has had extensive discussion on religion, thus it appears to me that religion is fine to be discussed....
Now, if you discuss politics, or even any current event, you run more risks it appears than religion. And please take no offense, but my heart is taken on the religion subject....my FUTURE life is taken care of....it is the present that is not comfy for folks to discuss for some reason.

I'm with you. While the two forbidden topics typically are religion and politics, religion has been discussed at great length on this and multiple other threads. I was guessing you were referencing the absence of political threads herein. For some reason (guessing again) politics creates even stranger bedfellows than religion.
As you say, in one we're taking about the eternal quality of life and in the other, the quality of life in the here and now. Apparently people are more passionate, emotional and more irrational about the here and now, which in one respect "seems" to make sense whether or not it should. I would love to see an active discussion on politics.
