Dear Loreto,
I agree with Richard and Brian. It isn't so much this particular topic
that is considered objectionable, as your approach to it, based on
random and superficial comparison whose only purpose is to support an
aprioristic point of view. We do love "inquisitio" in the etymological
sense of the word (= inquiry), but please don't take ordinary
moderatorial warnings as a form of censorship. It's just a matter of
maintaining a decent level of discussion.*)
