            Aspasia, as someone with a very Conservative (or Right-wing or Traditional or Religious or what-have-you) view, if your posts are like the one you made above, it seems less like they're being deleted for being conservative and more like they're being because they come off as very rude.
Censorship in general isn't unexpected in a private forum such as this, but I've been relatively vocal about my views and have not received censorship. Of course, I try to phrase them politely, but that's what I try to do in general.
I mean, neither of us are so conservative that we outright reject a fantasy-themed game and attendant system filled with sorcerers, divination, witchcraft, and demons/devils/etc within it, whether or not we allow some of those themes within our home games (certainly your character being a conjurer is antithetical to most "Traditional" acceptances). That's not to question your Conservative nature - my point is simply that there's a built-in tolerance for variance from our own positions based purely on the fact that you and I play a fantasy game whose traditions are seated in a very demonized (in many Traditional circles) due to... well... the presence of demons, among other things.
I might suggest that it would behoove us to continue to vocalize our views, but to do so in such a way as to not engender anger or outright rejection. To this end, I would suggest that we work at making ourselves more palatable and less odious (something that David did when exiled from Israel and forced to live among the Phillistenes) - in other words, instead of seeking an eye for an eye, let's seek discourse in calm, measured methods.
More late-life Paul and less Saul.
