I'm pretty sure the hammer is being brought down on the "Christ" and "The Lord" posts simply due to religious beliefs, in this case, Christianity. But "Goddess" falls into that same category, as well, but will not be warned, however, I put money on "God" being warned. It's a slippery slope when you start warning due to religious beliefs. Essentially, the undertone is
"It's acceptable... as long as it's not Christ or God or anything Christian." I can't help but to wince, because those Christian religious figures don't hold the same weight to everyone, and just because one member or moderator does not like when a fan refers to their artist as "The Lord" or "Ke$ha Christ," does not mean it should be warned -- especially when no ATRL rule is being broken -- simply because the member or moderator who does not like it is a Christian. It's a moral philosophy issue -- you're essentially forcing your belief on another member by warning those posts.
