I am puzzled by the administrator's punitive actions against Toph. David's claim that half of the Hebrew clerics are actually Christians seems indeed to be divisive as Toph states. Perhaps characterizing an unnamed source as dubious is a less egregious incivility than anti-semitism.

When you're blocked, you're not supposed to post, so I'm extending your block for another week.

I checked in on this board after a long hiatus, now I know why I stayed away. So, Toph is blocked but David John isn't? DJ's comments were far more offensive (to Jews, anyway, but perhaps that doesn't count here), Toph objected in what seems like a fair and non-offensive manner, he gets blocked without a chance to "rephrase that," while DJ rephrases (if you call it that) and all is well. Sheesh. Now I know why I stopped checking in on this board. Not much support here.

It's fine to support Toph, but please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.

If you have any questions or comments about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:

or redirect a follow-up to Psycho-Babble Administration.

Thanks,

Bob

I know you don't like to make retroactive PBC's and that's fine, but perhaps you could review the initial post with a fresh eye and make a statement of sorts as to what's allowable to say about other peoples' religions.

If you don't understand the issues involved, perhaps others could help you understand through email, since posting explanations would likely lead to a PBC.

Will do, but which initial post?

Actually, I was referring to the post that you requested be rephrased, and the rephrasings which you accepted with a thanks. The posts that the two posters who have been admonished were referring to.

If you want further clarification, let me know and I will email you. I'm not quite sure how to explain without violating civility guidelines. Perhaps some of the Jewish posters could email you as well, as my knowledge of Jewish history is probably not as accurate as theirs.

Dr. Bob's email is at the bottom of this page.

Sorry, I'm afraid I need further clarification. I think you could explain here, but email would be fine, too. Thanks,

Bob
