After posting about the old rules of The Flood, I noticed that a bunch of people wished we wouldn't have political or religious threads anymore, since they usually become filled with insults and hate mongering anyway.
If the opportunity came up in which we could have religious and political discussion removed entirely from #offtopic, would you be for or against doing so? How would you handle the situation if they became ban-worthy?

While I would like to get the old rules back, now that I think about it, what if we just made it an unspoken rule to start reporting any religious or political thread that we saw as obvious bait or flame war inducing?
