Yahoo deleted this question on the grounds that it's "not a question or answer". Is it a question?

Question

.the question i refer to is "Why worship god when you could campaign for world peace instead?"

Answer 1

Of course it is a question, why the h**l would someone say it's not a question? It's a good question that believers wouldn't like, because it shows their escapist attitudes.

"Let's just pray for peace, God will take care of it." while we fight that our religion is the best and the only.

Answer 2

I am sure u had wanted an answer, an opinion...which is good enough a reason to accept it as a question. In any case it does not warrant any feeling of rejection or dejection....but I still think u could have  put it better like what follows,

"worship God....campaign for world peace, what should be the preferred ideology....former,latter,both or none?"

.......for better sense to prevail & better response to surface.

cheers anyway & thanx for a lovely thought!

PS  

   I prefer world peace, a way of God's worship in its own way.

Answer 3

It is a question, just an illogical one.

I mean, the real question is why can't you do both?

Answer 4

Yes grammatically it's a question. My guess is It falls under the ""Avoid posting questions that are more about declaring your opinions than seeking knowledge." provision, a rule they interpret different on a daily basis. Some consistency would be nice

Answer 5

that is a touchy subject you got there, one might want to find the right type of people to ask that one or someone might get offended.

Answer 6

Yes it is a logical question.

I think yahoo has appointed idiots to look the questions and answers section.

Answer 7

The ppl over there r soo ugghhh...

Answer 8

That's definitely a question.  My guess would be that a few religious individuals took offense and reported it to get it deleted.

Answer 9

It is a question. How could it be deleted.

Answer 10

Yahoo's grounds is applied in general only. They have no specific grounds to counter your question. The two items of your question are unrelated. Its like asking why go fish when you could sing a song?

Answer 11

Just because you put a question mark at the end of that sentence, makes it a question.  Had you put an exclamation mark (!) behind it it would have been a statement.  No answer required.

1.) Don't worship god with a small G only the One spelled with a capital letter.

2.) I can worship whom and what I like. Don't need your permission.

3.) World peace is a pipe dream.  You are still fighting (for peace?) with 'theists"

4.) Why not campaign for peace in the home!!  (Yours)

Peace.

* Sarcasm intended.

Answer 12

Definitely a question.  Do not forget this is an American website.  It seems you will have to get the constitution amended, because you, for one, have not been created equal.

It is I who now risk having my answer deleted, but that won't touch the right to freedom of speach one tiny bit.

Answer 13

It's a question and I agree.

Answer 14

If that is not a question, then I must say this is not English.

You must protest strongly with YA Admn Team. I suspect they have been negligent and based on 2 biased (Believers?) reporting may have taken action without a second look. Otherwise, the conclusion we can make about the Team's competence would be ridiculous!!

Answer 15

if there is really a god out there he or she would have loved your great question! some god loving, warmonger hypocrite didn't like your question. peace

Answer 16

It is quite obviously a question, but the point is how do you answer it. It's a matter of preference and belief.

P.S. To Kimberly Ann, how can you agree with a question?

Answer 17

To finish your mission successfully without any obstacle you need talented good spirits.  Only God can give such spirits.  Without spirits human beings are nothing.  Therefore, worshiping God is necessary.  Further, you must say your good motives both mentally, orally and even by writing in detail.  Then only spirits can help you well.  In my experience I feel so.
