Well done- you completely ignored my point so you could hammer on your own! ;-)

It's when they want to discuss medicine and proscribe stuff for non-members, when I'm getting deurinated.

Why? You aren't living in medieval Spain but in a country that separates religion from State and believes strongly in free speech for all, not just for people of one pov. Around here you hammer regularly on religion without drawing intolerant responses; why can't that be a two-way street?

As for proscribed standards: we know that anarchy only works when the weather is fine so we do have to have "proscribed" standards in any modern society and as long as there is an opportunity to discuss and vote, it all seems to work. It's only when it becomes acceptable to attack/demonize other viewpoints that the trouble starts. Intriguingly it tends to be those who think of themselves as the tolerant "free thinkers" who show the least tolerance towards those who disagree with them.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
