Yet even so, I never came so near to returning to the Mormon church than during the campaign of Mitt Romney and all the disrespectful jokes about magic underwear. And I always speak up in church when I hear anything insensitive about Judaism. In fact, I'm looking into the Noahide covenant and am rather excited about it.

You wrote, [...be constantly accused of hating them (the Jews)...his accusations...]
I am unsure as to what posts contain from me the accusations that you are referring to. If you could post a link to one of those posts of mine here, then I could have the opportunity to respond to you.
Be advised that what you have posted about me here could induce hostile, disparaging and disagreeable opinions and feelings against me and decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held. This is because I am trying to purge statements here that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings and are according to Mr. Hsiung against the rules to post here because those posts that are in consideration in my discussion with Mr Hsiung here can be seen as {putting down} Jews which Mr Hsiung agrees is an anti-Semitic statement. I am following the rules here to what is humanly possible to have these posts in question notated as against the rules here and there has been one attended to so far by Mr. Hsiung where he reversed his thinking on his own rules and agreed with me that the post could put down Jews and others. I do not consider a discussion about posts that could put down Jews that I want purged from here to constitute anything like constantly accusing anyone of hating Jews. Agreed, those statements in discussion could cause hatred toward the Jews and that is why I am continuing to attempt to have them purged from here. And why would anyone want them to stand?
