Re: Bug#1109165: Can the community team remove packages or kick me out for not removing packages?

Like Andrey said, I think you might have misunderstood. The question was
whether I am willing to remove the package shipping the bible because
the bible contains that passage. If the question was whether I would
remove that quote taken from the bible from package X, if that quote was
in the package with no other context (like fortunes are, for example) my
answer would be a hard yes, with no nuance.
Sorry, why? If it was a „good” quote, you would accept it? What is the
difference? They are all quotes. And you can’t judge quotes without the
context. Even a „good” quote may be bad if you know the context. That
goes for songs as well („I don’t like Mondays” anyone?).
And if I understand it correctly, the OP has removed „good” quotes from
the package because he didn’t like the author.
So you are saying that Debian users are too stupid to understand and
judge a quote. Well, concerning things like the master/slave „problems”
you may be right. But then all quote packages should be removed.
