Really, to 'apolytonize' should be a real verb covering the action of, say, taking a headline such as 'EU considers Nazi symbols ban' and turn into 'EU bans symbols'.
Additionally, there should be an OMG somewhere in the thread title.

Pyrodrew's flag is the Stars and Stripes; ergo, any thread title of his containing 'E.U.' automatically becomes suspect, unless there's a definite signalled intention to 'epater les bourgeois', or some kind of ironic stance involved.
Additionally, there should be an (BANNED BY ORDER OF THE EUROPEAN UNION) somewhere in the thread title.

mehChristianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

You caught me. I took MarkG's lead to 'apolytonize' the title after seeing his impressive 'apolytonize' work... "US Troops destroy (some) Babylon (artifacts/relics)". So I decided to try it once.

Edit/ Although I'd be interested to see the public reaction in Britain if it's tried. How many people actually would fight for the right to free expression of something they loathed?Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

I agree BTW, that while Germany may have understandable and proper cause for upholding such a ban, the rest of Europe ought to stay clear of restrictions."The world is too small in Vorarlberg". Austrian ex-vice-chancellor Hubert Gorbach in a letter to Alistar [sic] Darling, looking for a job...
