Overview: What is at stake in r/Zen in two questions?

I thought, and this is just my opinion, that two recent exchanges clearly highlighted the perennial disputes (by sincere people) in this forum.

1. Zen Masters v/s karmic sin - What do Zen Masters teach?

   • Question: Do Zen Masters accept that there is any inherent condition to be saved from?
   • Universality: Citing sources is the basis for a discussion of any topic.

2. Zen Masters v/s censorship - Do secular communities have the right to say no to religious claims?

   • Question: Is it censorship to directly confront people who make anti-factual religious claims in a secular forum?
   • Universality: Content Brigading is not protected speech.

(Welcome link) (ewk^who?) note: I assumed, and will continue to assume, that all of us agree on the universality of these questions... let me know if I'm wrong.
