Is that official HN policy? I understand the desire to not make people feel unwelcome, and it is fairly rare that a conversation about technology needs to bring in religion. However, one could argue that challenging beliefs is a part of HN culture as well. I admit I'm not unbiased in this regard. There's a part of me that respects religion and there's a part of me that feels it's the one of the worst things in the world. There's a part of me that does want to give people a hard time for holding beliefs that I consider to be insane, and there's a part of me that has better things to do with his time and isn't sure he could offer anything practically better than what he would tear down.
