Are There Thread Subjects You Wouldn't Touch With A Barge Pole?

I am usually a bit wary about posting on threads about Religion.
Which subjects or threads would you be most likely to keep away from?

I haven't seen much evidence of you 'controlling yourself' Nom. You still tell me off sometimes anyway.

And in answer to Art, yes, I agree very much with you about the Religion threads - oh, and Politics.

I feel the same Meg but the thread title is the big attraction to me it has to capture my imagination.

Not too many I won't post in but I do elect now not to engage certain posters as they can't understand not everyone is the same or shares their opinion on things.

Secret society subject is a particular interest to me. I stay away from it here because of its misconception. You know, the idea that us brothers are in the game of controlling minds and out to take over the world.

No problem with any subject matter, I just clear off when a thread starts heading in a certain direction (West usually).
