Religion Profiles

[CCMac27]

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but why aren't there profiles for religious figures on this site? By that I mean things like God (Christianity), Allah (Islam), or any Hindu gods and the like. When writing it out, this sounds very stupid, but I thought i should ask. (Also, I am in no way religious, just wondering.) It could even be listed under Mythology or an entirely new page for religion.


Edit: Just saw this thread. My bad.

Because it would be too controversial

 

[CCMac27]

True.

 

[CCMac27]

However, aren't pages like Sun Wukong like that, that they could be considered controversial?

 

[ZacharyGrossman273]

The whole scaling wukong to original buddhism was being changed

I'd love to have the hindu gods beat up bernkastel but it's just too risky

 

[CCMac27]

Ohh I see. Maybe if a staff member saw this we could get a second opinion?

 

[ZacharyGrossman273]

Well, it's a case by case basis, although islam, christianity, judaism, hinduism, and buddhism are off limits. I don't think there was a conclusion one way or the other to if gnosticism would be allowed.

 

[CCMac27]

Ok. In hindsight, probably a dumb question to ask.

Well, it's mainly to avoid offending the actual followers of these religions.

We don't allow profiles from any of the major denominations that are being widely practiced, including Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism because trying to give them a set rating is bound to stir up trouble for those who firmly believe in the all-powerful creator being(s).

Fictional interpretations of these religions are allowed (i.e. Shin Megami Tensei and High School DxD).

We're also allowed to make profiles for religions that aren't widely practiced or aren't anymore, such as Greco-Roman Mythology or Jediism.
