It's designed to offer suggestions for similar questions that may not be in the same category as the one you're currently viewing, and that you might not find otherwise. Some of you pointed out that this module would occasionally suggest questions that were...suggestive, like links to adult questions from non-adult pages. As of last week that should be fixed, but if you see any other questionable suggestions, or want to comment on the usefulness of the module more generally, please let us know either here or via Contact Us.

I also noticed that sometimes such union is "incorrect" because the Question posted was maybe related but different in character.

Hi Rich,

united with "similar" Questions posted before. I also noticed that sometimes such union is "incorrect" because the Question posted was maybe related but different in character.

I AM VERY VERY ANGRY

What happened to my answer to http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/2329862

And WHO took the decision to remove it ?

It seem to me that any non-incoherent criticism of Christianity is increasingly being used as a 'valid' reason to censor the site and remove comments, answers and even whole questions.

If I thought this was a deliberate policy decision from AB management I would be even more angry.
