160. I have already shown examples of an unwillingness by some here
to grant equal freedom of expression where some religions are concerned. The desire to actually deny this freedom of expression is limited and prevented by the rules of the board itself but that does not mean that the will is not expressed by some individuals here as my previous examples showed.

Many Christians feel that it is a Biblical order that they "spread the good news". This is what they believe they are required to do as members of the Christian faith. I have shown examples of individuals here suggesting that "believers" of one faith or another should not "share" their faith but should keep it hidden away. This is a desire by some members to have those of other faiths behave in a manner that is inconsistent with their beliefs. This supports my claim that DU, as a community, is "not always" a defender of the rights of others to worship as they will.
