> The generally accepted meaning of to foster something, means to encourage or promote the development of something. Another meaning is to advance something or cultivate . The {something} in question here that is fostered, is anti-Semitism which means against the Jew or as in this site, something posted here that leads a Jew to feel put down or accused , or something that leads a Jew to feel that their faith is being put down.
> To advance or encourage by Mr. Hsiung what could lead a Jew to feel put down or accused or that their faith is being put down can be seen by a subset of readers here in the following post. Let us first look at the statement by Mr. Hsiung in this post:

> B. The statement could lead a Jew to feel that their faith is being put down.
> The statement could lead a rational person to think that it says that Judaism is inferior to Christianity. They could have a rational basis to think that on the grounds that the grammatical structure of the statement by the poster makes a comparison in that the law came by Moses {BUT} grace and truth came by Jesus Christ which could lead a Jew to feel put down as that as being a Jew, they do not have grace and truth in their faith because grace and truth came by Jesus Christ which Judaism rejects that claim. So the comparison between the two could lead a Jew to feel that their faith is being put down as Judaism being an inferior faith without grace and truth.
> By allowing the statement to stand is one thing. But it is a greater thing to a subset of Jewish readers when the moderator fosters what is posted as being good and thanking the poster for posting such. For that subset of readers could feel that their faith in Judaism is being insulted in that the moderator thanks the poster for posting what could lead a Jew to feel put down.
> There are many cases concerning members of on-line groups killing themselves as being bullied on the site. When a Jewish teenager reads what Mr. Hsiung has posted here, there is the potential IMHO for a depressed person of that age to lose their hope to live, as feeling put down as a Jew fostered by a psychiatrist. This is further more probable IMHO when there is a rule by a psychiatrist to not post what could lead someone to feel that their faith is being put down, and the reader in depression can see it that way. You see, the people here can be very vulnerable to feeling put down, and the psychiatrist knows that here. So to foster what could lead a Jewish person to feel put down here, could show to a subset of jurists, a reckless disregard for the truth by those that allow the statement to be fostered.
