In the sense of all sin is heinous before God, he has a point. Rhetorically, though, not the best one.
The unsourced statement "Catholics are satanists" would get deleted right out in virtually every case, because even though it's a voluntary religion rather than a race, the charge against the voluntary practice of so many is too strong. The unsourced statement "Muslims are satanists" would meet the same fate, but there is just a flicker more possibility that context might bear retention out because Muslims reject the creeds that Catholics accept. All comments are judged by standards similar to this, usually independently by me and CIAMM (two checks for each one), sometimes by the others too. But this is a preview of showing you the baselines and judging the accused behavior in accord with them. Instead (and I know you don't go as far as those examples), proceed with the facts and logic as best as you remember them, and allow friendly amendment, and you'll find the drama initiated by unconnected dots and sweeping generalizations will disappear. You did this in your other recent comment.
We've had a few 365-day or indefinite bans, but always for accounts easily classified as NPC's by the totality of their behavior.
If you've checked out the public prayer thread, you know that CIAMM has done what he could for his adult son and has still consented to deal with you despite our concern that you could be subject to the same charges you deal against us, and his having to respond to the results of that. Slack is appropriate.
