As can be seen, the statement by Mr. Hsiung at the end of what is in the link states that the purpose of the forum is for support and if something is not supportive they can take it elseware, (not here). And also the fact that it is in the bible does not make it supportive.
That is the crux of this matter in question. I am requesting for Mr. Hsiung to post in the thread in question as to if he considers the statement in question that purports that there is a set of people that have eternal life and forgivness by the {only way}. That way is described as (redacted by respondent)Jesus. That precludes all others since the poster uses the word,{only}.
It has been well-established in the rules here that statements that could lead people to think that there is what is referred to as {the only way}, to not be supportive. This is why I am asking members here to ppst from their perspective in the thread in question.
Here is a post that exemplifies this rule here.

The crux of this matter is as to if Mr. Hsiung considers the statement in question supportive or not. And if he considers it to be not supportive, then what is his rationale for allowing the statement to be {OK}? And thn what does {OK} mean here?
You see, it has been well-established that Jews and others that do not acceopt the claim in queastion are not in the set of people that the statement in question identifiies.
Then my concern is also as to why are not the members here, in mass, protesting the allowing of the statement in question by Mr. Hsiung by posting in the thread in question.
Here is another link that brings out the crux of this situation. And is it in question to some here as to if the statement in question is supportive or not?

Here is a post that uses derogatory and dehumanizing imagery toward the Jews that I pointed out to Mr. Hsiung.
Now Mr. Hsiung asked the poster to rephrase or revise the post. But the statements came from a link to a site so how could anyone rephrase or revise what is in someone else's statement? I guess one could revise by deleting the link but is that offerd to others here to delete what they posted in a link? But how could a poster delete their own post here? There is much more to this...
You see, there was another post by Mr. Hsiung before that post to not post a link to a site that has antisemitic content.

I would like to focus on the post in the above that you get when you type in [Dec 13 2004, admin, 428781].
There are other posts in the first group that could also come into this discussion, but I would like to focus on the one by itself now.
You see, there was discussion as to what happened to the post by th eposter, for if you click on the link by that poster, the link now is not there. There were other happenings with that link before wht you could see now is seen. The question that I have is who did whatever to the the link. A tech expert told me that there are two or more possibilities. To see what I found out, I could email that to you at your request.
But my concern is as to if the membership here could post in the thread in question where I request for Mr. Hsiung to post as to if he considers the statement in question supportive or not that precludes Jews and others that do not (redacted by respondent)have forgivness and eternal life. And is there a connection to these two post that you see that could be considerd {analogous}?

I think if the issue is look at events that transpired like 6 or 7 years before I started posting then yes that may be it. I think everybody who posts regularly feels aggrieved by what some poster wrote, or feels that Dr. Bob acted unfairly in some situation. We're all in the same boat as far as that is concerned, but it's just we have to let stuff go.
I made a post in Faith on some issues that we share an interest in and I'd really like to get your opinion:

You wrote,[...I've learned things from you...All of us need your voice to be heard...].
There could be other issues here that could be unbeknownst to you.
I am prohibited from posting the foundation of Judaism here as reveled to me. This limits my voice while the foundation of some Christindom sects is allowed to be posted here which states that the 1 1/2 million Jewish children that were murderd by antisemites between the years 1933 and 1945 can not have eternal life or forgivness because the statement that is allowed to stand here states that the only (redacted by respondent)Jesus , which Jewish children reject because they are Jews that do not accept the claim in question. As well as those Jewish children not being allowed forgivness or eternal life as the statement in question purports, could not those of other faiths and athiests and agnostics that reject the claim in question also be excluded as well?
Here is a way to see what Mr. Hsiung will do to me if I posted the foundation of Judaism as revealed to me. If you could bring that post up and read it, I think that it could go a long way for understanding of this situation where the owner/operator of this site allows (redacted by respondent), while posting to the Jewish member (redacted by respondent), which has historical parallels that I am also prohibited by Mr. Hsiung from posting here.

Scott I've always been taught in believing in forgive and forget to move forward otherwise one is stuck in the past. If I had stayed in the past I'd be thinking of father of kids and wouldn't have gone to RN school and accomplished the things I have and I'm proud of them. I helped and cared for a lot of patients. A touch and painful job at times but so rewarding when one became well. These are my feeling nothing more or less. Phillipa

I don't see how recognizing the past necessarily prevents one from moving forward. I think people can get stuck by not looking at where they've been in order to know where they are going. I think that understanding the past can go a long way toward making a better future.
I guess that finding a balance is important.
Whatever works.
No biggie...

Scott,
You wrote the above. Thanks, I think that's good.
Here is a way to see a video. if you could watch it, then you may want to post in the thread where Mr. Hsiung states that it is {OK} for it to be posted here. But is the statement in question supportive? My request to him is outstanding. Could you ask yourselves why? Could you ask yourselves why you are not posting in that thread to say as to if you think the statement in question is supportive or not? How long will the members here (redacted by respondent)?
Lou

> LouI know you asked this of Scott, but more than once you've referred to your perception of the members' or the community's lack of action. I can only answer for myself. I have not posted my view of whether what the statement in question is supportive or not for the following reasons:
- I am not willing to "police" the supportiveness of every post. I wasn't willing or able to review every post as a deputy, and I sure as heck am not willing to do that as just me.
- I am not comfortable with and try to avoid reinforcing, escalating, or otherwise "feeding" a behavior when I find myself wondering if it is a manifestation of an unhealthy obsession.
- I do not share your assessment of the value of giving that thread any more attention.
And finally, when I feel like I am being coerced, shamed, and/or manipulated, whether I actually am or not, I tend to dig in my heels and become obstinate vs accommodating. Not one of my better traits, but one of them, nevertheless.
I wish you peace and light, Lou.

I feel pressured. And it is not the first time because you have asked this question, worded similarly to this, before. I ask you stop doing so, please.

I appreciate your acting as a sentinel to guard against antisemitism. You have stated your concerns and opinions quite clearly. I am not sure what more you can do. It appears that your petitioning Dr. Bob to take some sort of action has not been effective in bringing about the change in his behavior that you would like to see. He certainly has the right to remain silent.If Dr. Bob has made the decision to remain silent, what else can you do to help prevent the emergence of antisemitism that you haven't already tried? What other ideas can you come up with? What other resources can you utilize? I acknowledge that this is a difficult issue to navigate.

Here is a way to see a post here. In the post, there is a quote. It could be in the same catagory as [...Those that cannot remember the past are condmned to repeat it...(George Satayana)]
