I've never known him to have any particular feelings about any religion at all, or to show any particular familiarity with any religion. I have no private knowledge of his personal beliefs, but I'd tend to believe it's not a prime concern to him if he's religious at all.

I suppose it's barely possible that he might deign to honor us with his presence on an irregular basis, and that might keep us somewhat in line. But he's not routinely replying to anyone's notifications. I've pretty much quit trying. Learned helplessness.

Plenty of Christians have been told that as well. As have Democrats and Republicans. His rules were made to keep divisive topics like religion and politics to interfere with the primary purpose of the board.

The torch of hate toward the Jews can be picked up here right now. One can access the archives at their will. And some even see the posts that could arouse antisemitic feelings when they are searching for something else. If there were no archives, one could have a point that the fire is not there. But not only are they there, they are considered to be civil and supportive because support takes precedence and Mr Hsiung does not wait to sanction a post because one match could cause a forest fire, and what's more, it will be good for this community as a whole according to Mr Hsiung's thinking as posted in his TOS here.
Here is a post that I would like readers to examine, for it could arouse antisemitic feelings world-wide and subject Jews to the fear of being victims of antisemitic violence. You can see the statement in question by looking at the poster's post and read the 5th line from the end. It starts with,[...The idea that the person...].
Antisemitism in a community or country or school or university can be spread when the statement like that is alllowed to stand. It is well-known the accusation toward the Jews that is promulgated in the post. But this accusation is allowed to stand. And as long as it goes unnotated by the owner/operator here, people can think that it is supportive. Supportive of what? Supportve of Hate? Hatred toward the Jews? And you want me to take the blame for you taking an addictve drug because I write here to stop the hate here from being allowed to stand?
I say to you to not blame me for any real or imagined anything in your life. I have come here to save lives, to stop the antisemitism from being allowed to stand here, and to proclaim the acceptable (redacted by respondent). You want to take a benzo because of what I want to do? There are other ways to have dialog with me here than to blame me for your drug taking of a benzo.
And were you a deputy when this was posted? If so, why did you not address it?
Lou
