Should this question have been rejected as spam? Like it was. Or is it censorship? "Shouldn't JW's and Mormons be in the cult section rather than religions?"

I don't think it should have been rejected at all. We need bigotry to be out in the open where everyone can see it for what it is.

Discrimination against people for their beliefs is something that causes so much hate and killing in the world. You are entitled to your beliefs as those people are entitled to theirs . Just agree to differ and go without the bigotry and hatred.

Absolutly not. This is a free site where opinions are shared. Jeez, If I were censored for my answers because some one disagreed, half my answers would not be allowed. I answered this question when it was posted , the author disagreed with my opinion and that was that. No harm, no foul. Rememer, "when they come after your opinion, what will you say"....

I'm willing to bet it was rejected for being offensive, not for being spam. In which case, if someone was offended by your question (and I can see how some could be) they had every right to flag it as being offensive. You have the same ability, that's just the way it is!

Yes, it should've been rejected as "Spam/Offensive", and I'm happy it was. Sorry, but there are people who would, no doubt, find this and some of your other questions offensive. What exactly do you have against Jehovah's Witnesses? EDIT: Never mind, I don't really want to know what you have against Jehovah's Witnesses. You need to take into account that it wasn't censorship or spam as the reason for your question being rejected, it was the high levels of offensiveness it holds. Free speech, woo hoo, just don't hurt peoples feelings for no reason. If you don't agree with that, and you want to be offensive, go somewhere else.

Rejected as spam? No. Flagged for being thoughtless? Yes. Anytime you suggest that a religion is a cult, you are trying to poke someone in the eye! Especially a religion as large a the Mormons. Even you know this.
