  Dries > "However, when a highly-visible community member's private views become public, controversial, and disruptive for the project, I must consider the impact that his words and actions have on others and the project itself." I think the key words are controversial and disruptive. This to me seems to confirm that the guiding principle here is "avoid a big fuss" as opposed to some moral or ethical bright line. There's a lot of words devoted to what "Goreans" believe--which I had never ever heard of before. I've read the Bible though; and I know what the Vatican (for example) says about birth control, abortion, men vs women, etc. I guess this fits into the old joke that the difference between a cult and religion is how many people are in it.
