Ship of Fool’s Criteria for posting in “Hell.” “This is Hell. Please note that posting here is the equivalent of drawing a big, fat bull's eye on your chest. Got a complaint, a rant or a personal argument to settle? Feel free to add it to the uproar.”
Reason: I have a longstanding complaint with fundamentalists who insist that all scripture is to be taken literally. Prior to Vatican II, this was the constant teaching of the Catholic Church (as I have cited). Now, I would argue that Vatican II has dropped that teaching.
“Post the OP there (and not in Styx, n00b)”
I was instructed by a moderator regarding the use of Styx:
“It's not there for discussion. All you need to do is post on there and practice using the various features available.”
Thus, I am following both instructions as presently written.
Perhaps you and the other moderators should coordinate the guidance given to posters. I hope that I am wrong, but I am beginning to suspect that some moderators are using their authority to limit the dialogue on subjects [no matter how well documented] with which they are uncomfortable.

You were explicitly told to:
1) Use the UBB practice thread in the Styx to be able to quote correctly. Plus any other coding feats you might like to try.
2) Not post the same thing in multiple places, which looks like crusading to us.
If you are unable to comply, you will be unable to post on these boards.

Much though I hate to give the impression of us ganging up on you, it's against our rules to use another poster's real name rather than their chosen display name. That applies to Hosts and Admins as much as it does to anyone else.
I've edited your post to remove the two references to an Admin's real name. Do not do that again.

No you weren't. I was referring specifically to the UBB practice thread. Now answer me this, do you really not understand simple instructions or are you doing this deliberately?
