No.
It would be a source of contention. Besides that, people lie about their location now. Do you think all of those members with Somali flags are from Somalia? What would stop people from lying about religious affiliation just to troll people? Why is pointing out your religious affiliation important? Would political affiliation be equally important? Where does it stop? Edit to add; you don't even list what state you're from.

So, who cares if they aren't accurate? Was it wrong for all the Canadian flags to pop up in support of Canada after the shooting there a few months ago? Big deal. Is pointing out any status (national, service, NRA, instructor) really important? Of course not. You could argue that nothing on discussion forums in really that important. |

I do.
When some random dude on the internet with a Somali flag starts talking about how much snow he got, or asks questions about "state law", it would be helpful to know where he actually lives. Do you understand why the true location might be important in certain discussions? That's why I like to know where people live when they post most of the things they talk about. I see now you live in Great Britain rather than the U.S.A., which is a bit confusing. We have a Religion Forum, which is great. We don't need little badges. |

It certainly makes sense from the legal question/weather/etc perspective. I'm not sure it matters from the GD perspective but I get your point. Re: the Union Jack. One of the Catholic guys mentioned running the Vatican flag to signify Catholicism so I did the Union Jack to signify Anglicanism. My thoughts on the whole religious signifier was along the same lines as the thread below this one where the guy wants state flags. I'd be in favor of the state flags thing too. If they were options, I'd do a Virginia state flag, NRA eagle, Episcopal shield, and put my dog back in my avatar. I get it, the religious signifier isn't a popular idea. No worries. |
